Palaeoecological signals from floodplain and terrace peatlands decipher ancient land use in the Mid-Kama Valley (cis-Ural, Russia)
In prehistoric times, humans relied heavily on the physical environment. Topography and climate change significantly influenced ancient cultures, settlement patterns and land use strategies. To gain a comprehensive understanding of environmental and land use changes in the Mid-Kama region, we obtained a core Krasavino from the Kama floodplain and analyzed it using AMS radiocarbon dating, loss-on-ignition, pollen, non-pollen palynomorphs, micro- a…
Natural conditions and sociocultural development in the Mid-Kama region (cis-Ural, Russia) over the last ten millennia
The Ural Mountains represent a distinctive bioecological and climatic boundary between Europe and Asia, simultaneously uniting them through cultural, ethnic, and economic ties throughout history. To investigate these complex human-environment interactions during the last ~ 10,000, we obtained a peat core Shabunichi-1 and analyzed it using AMS radiocarbon dating, loss-on-ignition, pollen, non-pollen palynomorphs, micro- and macrocharcoal analyses.…
Animal Bone Amulets of the Imenkovo Culture (3rd–7th centuries CE)
This article examines animal bone amulets, a distinct category of artifacts from the Imenkovo culture (3rd–7th centuries CE) in the Middle Volga region. These amulets, minimally modified beyond perforation, were crafted from the bones of both wild and domesticated animals. Wild animal bone amulets were likely linked to hunting magic rituals, while astragali from domesticated animals (cattle, sheep/goat, and pig) may have served as divination tool…
When Barley and Wheat Meet Millet
We have compiled data on over 800,000 plant macroremains and their inclusions in pottery from 321 archaeological sites in the forest and forest-steppe zones of Eastern Europe, spanning from the Baltic to the Urals, which have been collected and studied in over a century of archaeobotanical research. The spatiotemporal distribution of these remains was analysed using multivariate statistics, unveiling intricate cultivation patterns influenced by b…
Inhilldaugar
Combining non- and minimally invasive archaeological survey, geomorphological methods and linguistic studies enables a better understanding of the dynamic use of the Daugava waterway from the Bronze to the Viking ages. Results indicate a common origin period of many fortified settlements and also identify research questions about cultural fluctuations in the Baltic-Slavic-Scandinavian contact area
Cultural and Population Dynamics in the Ural Region
The archaeogenetic data recently presented by Gyuris & Vyazov et al. (2024) introduces ancient DNA (aDNA) from 131 individuals dating from the first millennium BCE to the first half of the second millennium CE, predominantly from the Trans-Ural region. This dataset facilitates the comparison of the dynamics of material culture development and population processes in this area. The study's results indicate that the genetic profile characteristic o…
On one series of the VI century AD iron one-piece asian helmets
The article describes a series of helmets of a type that probably spread across Asia and Eastern Europe in the middle to the second half of the VI century AD. These helmets are characterised by a very particular construction: they have a bowl hammered from a single piece of iron, with an additional band in the lower part, connected to the inside or outside edge of the helmet. Additionally, a chainmail collar was attached to the lower part of the …
Subrecent Pollen Spectra of the Middle Volga Region and their Applicability for Climate and Land-Use History Reconstruction
The paper presents the results of spore-pollen analysis of 47 surface soil samples from the Middle Volga region, taken both in territories with vegetation close to zonal one and in heavily disturbed vegetation areas and agricultural lands. The analysis showed an ambiguous relationship between subrecent spectra and modern vegetation, both local and regional. This is explained by strong anthropogenic transformation of landscapes and the spread of c…
A Study of the Archaeozoological Collection from the Ashna-Pando Hillfort in the Middle Sura Region
The article presents the results of processing of the archaeozoological collection from the excavations of the Ashna-Pando hillfort (Surskiy district of the Ulyanovsk region), carried out by P. D. Stepanov in 1949. The collection (2,760 bone fragments) belongs to three cultural layers identified at the site: the Fatyanovo-Balanovo culture of the Bronze Age, a specific local cultural group of the Early Iron Age and the Imenkovo culture of the late…
Динамика хозяйственного освоения Посурья в I тысячелетии н.э. Часть 1
The article summarizes the results of a comprehensive landscape-archaeological study of the dynamics of human-environmental interaction in the Middle Sura region during the first millennium AD. The data resulted from the study of the River Sura floodplain at the former confluence of the Sura and the Malaya Sarka. The analysis of the sediments and buried soils indicates that the period between the first millennium BC and the first millennium AD sa…
Stratigraphy And Paleolithic Landscapes of the Beganchik Site at the Kama-Volga Confluence
The Beganchik locality is a stratigraphic sequence of loessic deposits, pedogenic horizons and Paleolithic occupations located at the Kama-Volga confluence. The sequence is exposed on a bluff formed on the west side of an erosional remnant between the Kuybyshev Reservoir and the former channel of the Aktay River. Although the site is known for its Terminal Paleolithic-Mesolithic occupations of the Pleistocene-Holocene transition, evidence of olde…
Biklyan’ Settlement of the Initial Stage of the Migration Period in the Lower Kama Region
The article examines the materials of the beginning of the Migration period from the Biklyan’ settlement, located in the Lower Kama region. The area of 100 m2 was excavated in 2018, where a rectangular structure slightly deepened into subsoil loam with a large pit in the central part was revealed. The finds are mainly represented by fragments of ceramics, as well as an iron sickle, spinning whorls, a fragment of a crucible and ceramic objects of …

Fortifications and Paleo-Landscape of the Troitskii Urai I Hillfort
The paper features the results of a comprehensive study of the fortifications of the Troitskii-Urai I hillfort. An analysis of a rampart section using the archaeological, geomorphological, palynological and soil science methods has made it possible to draw the following conclusions. The hillfort was built at the site of a community of the Bronze Age – the beginning of the Early Iron Age (12th – 9th centuries B.C.), and the rampart is connected to…

Investigations of a Rampart of Balymer Sholom Hill-Fort in 2014
The article features the results of comprehensive archaeological and geomorphological study of the exposures of defensive structures of the Sholom hill-fort known as the Early Iron Age settlement (the Ananyino cultural and historical area) and the Early Middle Ages (the Imenkovo culture). As a result of field archaeological works the researchers determined that the rampart was constructed as late as in 1st millennium A.D., and the construction of…
