Historical background
The town meant is Chersonesus in Crimea, near today's Sevastopol, founded in 422/421 BC by settlers from Heraclea Pontica, hence the joining of the two names. The town lived from wine and grain grown on its parcelled hinterland and later stood under the protection of Rome and Byzantium. Prince Vladimir of Kyiv is said to have been baptised here in 988.
