Works In addition to archaeological research, Oleksander Tsynkalovsky wrote about the earliest events in the history of Ukraine, focusing on the Cherven cities – Chełm, princely cities Drohiczyn, Przemyśl. He did not overlook scholarly themes related to art—he was one of the first to connect the life and work of the prominent Ukrainian icon painter of the early 18th century, Yov Kondzelevych, with Volyn. Before the war, he discovered Kondzelevych's works in Zahoriv, Voschatyn and other villages. In the field of art and architecture, he published works such as "Architecture of Lemkivshchyna and Hrubeshivshchyna" and articles such as "Churches of the pre-Mongol and Mongol period in Volyn and Galicia" (1969), "Enkolpion Crosses" (1972), "Churches of the XV–XVIII centuries in Western Ukraine," and more.
