Vessel from a Unique Burial of the Osinovoe Ozero Culture of the Western Amur Region
Purpose . A unique burial site from the Osinovoe Ozero culture was discovered under a rock overhang in the Western Amur region. One ceramic vessel in particular stands out in this collection, decorated with applied rollers that form a spiral ornament with notches. This vessel is the only one in the region that can be reliably linked to a specific burial, making its pottery technique and chronology crucial for analysis. Results . The vessel is mad…
Multidisciplinary Study of the Neolithic Pottery from Osinovoye Ozero, the Middle Amur
We describe ceramics of the Osinovoye Ozero culture from the 1962 and 1965 excavation seasons at the Osinovoye Ozero settlement on the Middle Amur River, with a view to reconstructing certain stages of pottery production in that region, using methods such as binocular microscopy, petrography, and derivative thermogravimetry. Two subtypes of raw material were identified on the basis of natural admixtures: one with brown iron ore and mica plates, t…
Millstone of the Beginning of the Early Iron Age
Among the finds discovered during the study of the elite burial mound no. 7 of the Sargat culture at the Tartas-2 site, there is an upper part of the millstone.

A large trapezoidal dark grey spot was discovered in the northern part of section 5. A humus-filled black spot of sub-recta…
Evidence of the Baraba Early Neolithic Culture at the Vengerovo-2 Settlement (Baraba Forest-Steppe)
In 2015–2016, a large structure of sophisticated design was excavated during the study of Bronze Age dwellings of the Krotovo culture at the Vengerovo-2 settlement (Vengerovo District, Novosibirsk Region). The Early Neolithic age of the structure was established from animal bone found in the object, making it possible to include the Vengerovo-2 settlement into the circle of sites of the Baraba culture. The structure was a deep, multi-level, two-c…
Fish Storing Pits as a Stable Tradition of Paleoeconomics among the Ancient Cultures of the Tai Area
The Tai locality in Vengerovo District of Novosibirsk Region has always attracted humans. In 1973, a two-meter-deep pit which contained fish bones and scales, bones of mammoth and rhinoceros, stone tools, and bison skull was discovered on its terrace. The object was interpreted as a Pleistocene pit, but its functional purpose remained unclear. In recent decades traces of early settlements and series of pits intended for fermenting fish have been …
Funeral and Commemorative Complexes of the Andronovo (Fedorovo) Culture and Their Role in the Ritual Practice (Evidence from the Tartas-1 Site)
The largest necropolis of the Andronovo (Fedorovo) culture was explored at the Tartas-1 site which is located in the Ob-Irtysh interfluve. The sacred space in large part of the burials was framed by different architectural structures separating the burial from other grave structures. We have identified 67 various funeral and commemorative complexes of the Andronovo (Fedorovo) culture. They can be divided into six groups: ring-like ditches of regu…

Statistical Analysis of Spatial Distribution of Ceramics from Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age Sites in Southwestern Siberia
Results of the statistical analysis of spatial distribution of ceramics at Chicha-1, Zavialovo-5, and Linevo-1 indicate ethnic heterogeneity and the presence of native and immigrant ceramic traditions within separate sites and even within single dwellings. The arrangement of pottery inside residence structures follows certain regularities. All residents, however, were apparently involved in the same manufacture
An Early Neolithic Sanctuary in the Eastern Irtysh Basin
We describe the findings of excavations at an unusual sanctuary in the Baraba forest-steppe.
