Well that's one of the few things that has come out well during the war >

Except the site is being trampled on and destroyed by the digging  😢😬🙈 source: an archaeology degree with an archaeology specialty  
Lots of war activities have destroyed much of our chance to understand history correctly. Worst culprits right now are Iran/Iraq. >

According to the article which was super long and hard to read they stopped all excavation work in the location. >

"After the victory" 😅🙈😪 doesn't mean it won't be bombed to hell before hand though. At least they have the mind to stop digging. >

Romans got all the way to Ukraine? >

Apparently they had a few areas in and around Crimea that got taken by the goths.
However the Byzantine empire under Justinian I regained control of parts of the peninsula well into the Middle Ages
Now while Crimea is not part of the Kherson Oblast it’s not very far away and it’s fairly feasible that some settlements got that far out. >

Italy was founded by German lombards once the Latins were wiped out by looting rape and plague. >

I would heavily caution against taking this article at its word. The presence of amphora and roman trade goods is not enough to infer a Roman settlement. 
Why do I feel confident in saying this? Because we found Roman clothing, Roman glassware, Roman furniture and Roman weapons/uniforms in villages we know were not Roman. See for example Feddersen Wierde in Germany. 
It is far more likely that this is an ancient settlement that traded with Rome or had ex-Roman soldiers who were originally from that tribe but went to serve rome come back and enjoy retirement with roman goods there.
