The palaeorelef of the territory of the Upper Volga region, which is subject to man-made changes, was
reconstructed on the basis of a comparative analysis of cartographic sources and using GIS-technologies. The
reconstruction of paleorelief in Ivankovo and Uglich reservoirs is carried out by restoring water terrain prior
to the beginning of hydraulic engineering in the 1930s, using the QGIS 3.12 software by layering the modern
maps and the "Map of the Tver province" by A. I. Mende. Options of the shoreline of the Volga river in the
studied region were obtained, which made it possible to map the archaeological sites. The data on the location
of known and lost archaeological monuments in the region were clarifi ed, and their geomorphological features
were noted.
