A Brief Note on Orthography and Transliteration A Brief Note on Orthography and Transliteration Relationships to Khmelnytsky are as numerous as the names and orthographies that identify the hetman. In this volume, we have chosen to use the modified Ukrainian transliteration “Bohdan Khmelnytsky.” How- ever, where an author refers to a Polish text, we have used the standard Polish spelling, Bohdan Chmielnicki; Russian texts will refer to Bogdan Khmelʹnitskii, and Ukrainian-language texts follow the more standard transliteration of Bohdan Khmelʹnytsʹkyi. Names of places also necessarily vary according to the political moment or perspective in question. Wher- ever possible, we have attempted to standardize the spelling of place names to correspond to the time period and literary context under discussion. Where this is ambiguous, we have opted either for the standard spelling of well-known place names in English or for the present Ukrainian spelling. Names of well-known individuals likewise follow the English spelling of their names, whereas the names of less-commonly-translated writers con- form to either the Library of Congress (for Ukrainian and Russian) or the YIVO (for Hebrew and Yiddish) styles of transliteration. To ease pronun- ciation in our English-language narrative, we have modified the Russian and Ukrainian Library of Congress systems slightly by giving the initial vowel in all personal names as Yu, Ya, and Yo, rather than Iu, Ia, and Io.

Traditionally, transitivity phenomena are treated as a combination of different types of entities, formed as a result of the transformation processes or the reflection of the intermediate, syncretic facts that characterize the language system in the synchronous aspect.

Ivchenko3 1 Corresponding author, Institute of Geological Sciences, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, 55B Gonchara Street, 01054, Kiev. Ukraine. E-mail: [email protected] 2 P.F.Gozhik.

Institute of Geography, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, 44, 3 Volodymyrska Street, 01034, Kiev. Ukraine. E-mail: [email protected] r ; Manuscript received: November 2000; accepted: January 2002 Abstract Information about the morphology and alluvial sediments of the Dnieper Valley is reviewed. The Dnieper Valley originated in the Late Miocene. The Middle Dnieper Valley is an intercontinental alluvial basin and the Lower Dnieper Valley is a shallow canyon that ends with a delta. Identification of the alluvial dynamic fades (channel, overbank, abandoned channel) is crucial for stratigraphical analysis. The dynamic fades form regular sequences - alluvial suites that combine into series. Individual suites and series are characterized by their mode of occurrence, fades composition, lithological features and expression in the modern landscape. Their stratigraphic position is established with reference to index beds and palaeontological, geochrono- logical and archaeological research, allowing them to be correlated along the valley. Correlation between different parts of the Dnieper system uses a combination of fades and geomorphological analyses, whereas correlation with other river systems makes use of mammalian and molluscan biostratigraphy.
