The article reviews questions of correlation of archaeological and geological chronologies of the Quaternary period. A comparative table of archaeological and geological chronologies is based on correspondence of age and duration of the archaeological cultures to geological epochs and periods. At the same time, the importance of this comparative table is highlighted in synchronization of ages of geological and archaeological depositions while conducting geological, geomorphological, paleogeographic and archaeological research.
