The article examines a significant lexical layer of the Stishnoy Prologue which is the vocabulary of artifact names (i. e. ‘objects made by man’). The revealed vocabulary includes 23 thematic groups. Intra-word and inter-word paradigmatic relations were analyzed in the group of artifact nominations. The purpose of our study is a comprehensive analysis of the names of artifacts in the Stishnoy Prologue. An analysis of the functional features of the artifact names showed that the genre of the text presented in the Stishnoy Prologue defines the frequency of use of the analyzed lex emes. Analysis of the artifact names in the Stishnoy Prologue reveals that the group of such lexemes is quite diverse and includes not only names of objects of worship and church life and instruments of torture, but also units denoting everyday vocabulary such as names of jewelry, objects of crafts, etc. The frequency of use of such lexemes in the text of the manuscript and their semantic connections within and outside of the group indicate that the units belong to the active vocabulary of the Church Slavonic language of the 15th century.
