SUMMARY

The new versions of the hypotheses about the origin of the name of the Ukrainian capital and it founder from the title of the eldest type of the personal weapon, sing of the authority - 'kiy' (stick - in English) are explained in the article. The unification of three different well-known chronicle versions are proposed in the first place. The ideas, that the Legendary Prince Kiy from this dynasty was an invalid-soldier with the legs injury, either the old man, which used “kiy”(walking- stick), or the famous champion in the cane fight, are offered. Using the methods of the new suggesting science-field, which will exist on the edge between the history and design, such as the “historical proto- design”, or “retrospective design”, it was directed to project three possible text and graphic models of the stick, which maybe had belonged to famous Prince of Slaves. There are our view, that from this ancient Kiyv’s symbol arose the multiplying decorating marks, as rod, skipetr, “bulava” “boonchuke” and so on.

Key words: archeology, cane, capital, chronic, city, founder, “grad”, historical proto-design, hypothesis, kin, Kiy, Kiyv, legend, retrospective design, rod, skipetr, sign, stick, symbol, transportation, Ukraine.
