    In this paper, we analyze what can be learned about the meat supply of the Alakul miners of the Late Bronze Age using archaeozoology, Sr-isotope analysis, and radiocarbon dating techniques. The study is based on a sample of domestic animal bone originating from the Vorovskaya Yama copper mine site in the southern Trans-Urals. The site functioned over a period of about two centuries starting around 1600 BCE. Cattle, caprines, and horses constitute…

  • Horse Teeth Shed Light on Seasonality in Scythian Mound Burials in Southern Russia

    Natalya E Prilepskaya, O P Bachura et al.ARTICLEJournal of Field Archaeology2024References: 10

    The Scythian archaeological culture is a component of the Scythian-Siberian community of equestrian nomadic pastoralists located in the northern Black Sea region and Ciscaucasia. This paper explores whether the Scythians were present in the central Pre-Caucasus all year round or only during a part of the year and were migrating seasonally. Since Scythian settlements are not known in this region, a possible clue may come from determining the seaso…

    Based on archaeological materials from the Kamennyi Ambar-5 cemetery, we test the hypothesis about the connection between the seasonality of pastoral practices and funerary rites during the Late Bronze Age (early 2nd millennium BC). We studied growth layers in the teeth of 24 cows, 19 sheep/goats, 14 horses, a dog, and ten humans from 17 graves. We combined samples from various species from the same contexts into eight assemblages. With regard to…

  • Dogs (Canis Familiaris) From Yeniseysk (17th-19th Centuries)

    O P Bachura, О П Бачура et al.ARTICLEКраткие сообщения Института…2021

    Статья посвящена описанию остеологической коллекции собак (103 экз.) из раскопок усадьбы Баландина XVIII-XIX вв. в г. Енисейске. Исследования показали, что это были собаки мелкого и среднего размера. Мелкая форма собак, по-видимому, происходит от каких-то привозных пород. Собаки средних размеров образовались от местных восточносибирских лаек. Продолжительность жизни собак небольшая -около 6 лет, что было обусловлено плохими условиями их содержани…

  • Attributes of the Bronze Age Steppe Animal Husbandry Based on the Materials of the Sintashta Culture Funerary Practices (Solntse II Cemetery)

    P A Frikke, Igor V Chechushkov et al.ARTICLEStratum plus Archaeology and…2021

    The study of seasonal use of archaeological sites helps to understand lifestyles of prehistoric communities. One possible method of such research is the analysis of dental cementum of animals from the ancient settlements and burial complexes. The method offers some data about the seasonality of the animals’ slaughter that may help to explain pastoral strategies. This study presents the results of the analysis of dental cementum of sacrificed anim…

    Imanay Cave is located in the Southern Urals (53°02' N, 56°26' E), at 420 m.a.s.l. A 9.5 m2 trench was exca-vated in the grotto in the inner part of the cave to examine the sediments. The accretion thickness was 1.2 m. The taphocoenosis of the Imanay Cave is of the Pleistocene age and contains about 10,000 specimens of bone re-mains of large mammals. They mostly belong to small cave bear (U. ex gr. savini-rossicus), and the remaining bones — to s…

  • Seasonal pattern of domestic cattle slaughtering in the Late Bronze Age Tanalyk settlement (Southern Ural)

    Open AccessO P Bachura, Pavel KosintsevARTICLEVestnik arheologii, antropologii…2021Cited by: 1References: 5

    The settlement of Tanalyk (Bashkortostan) is the most fully studied household object of the Late Bronze Age in the territory of Southern Ural. The pottery assemblage allows attributing it to the Srubnaya - Alakul type. The majority of bone remains in this site belong to domestic animals, and the number of wild species remains is ex-tremely small. There is no evidence of farming in the Late Bronze Age. Thus, the subsistence of the Tanalyk populati…
