Support of This Website Provided by the League of Ukrainian Canadians in 2022
In January of this year, the Ucrainica Research Institute and the National Executive of the League of Ukrainian Canadians in Toronto donated a new subsidy in support of our website "Ivan Mazepa Name". These institutions also rendered similar subsidies in 2017-2021. We acknowledge this annual support from Canada which helps us to maintain the site and update it with new materials and thus continue to popularize the life and deeds of Hetman Ivan Mazepa and his era, as well as the contemporary publications on these subjects of Ukrainian history. We kindly thank Orest Steciw, M.A., president of the Ucrainica Research Institute and the executive director of the League of Ukrainian Canadians, and hope for further cooperation.

UNIQUE ARMORIAL BEARINGS OF MAZEPA DISCOVERED IN BATURYN
This article with gallery of colour illustrations in PDF examines the rare ceramic stove tiles featuring the armorial bearings of Ivan Mazepa which were discovered during the excavations at Baturyn in 2017-20. It presents and analyses the computer reconstructions of his broken and burnt heraldic emblem in relief surrounded with images of weapons, military accoutrements, and hetman and Cossack symbols of power topped by the unique depiction of a princely crown. These archaeological finds have been identified with Mazepa’s coat of arms as Prince of the Holy Roman Empire. He was granted this title in 1707. This article was published in the “Ukrainian Echo”, the English-language section of the popular Ukrainian Canadian newspaper “Homin Ukrainy”, Vol. LXXIII, No. 10, Toronto, March 9, 2021.
