The Roman-era cemetery Frontove 3 is located in the Nakhimovsky district of Sevastopol, 1 km west of the modern village of Frontove (formerly Biyuk-Otarkoy). The cemetery is located in the northeastern sector of the barbarian district of Chersonesos of Roman times, which occupied part of the Inkerman Valley, the northern shore of Sevastopol Bay, and most of the Belbek River valley.
