Chronology of the Crimean Assemblages With Artefacts Featuring the Late Roman Polychrome Style
Many new finds have recently been obtained in the sub-mountainous area of the Crimean Peninsula, mostly from the cemeteries of Opushki and Frontovoye 3. As a result, we now possess considerably more material than the researchers who published their studies in the previous years did. There is a need to determine the chronological position of the artefacts featuring the Late Roman polychrome style which were uncovered at the graves of the Crimean b…
Gender Status of Individuals Buried with Grave Goods in the Late Roman Polychrome Style
During the Late Roman period, a new jewellery style spread across Europe. Artefacts in this style are characterized by embossed design on gold or gilt foil and various inlays of stone or glass. Weapons, horse tack, belt fittings, and ornaments were made in this style. Given the rarity of these artefacts, their materials, striking polychromy, and aesthetic value, one may suppose that the owners possessed unusual wealth and social status. However, …
Two Late-Roman-Period Figurines from the Sub-Mountainous Crimea (The Archaeological and Mineralogical Research)
This paper presents the results of research conducted on two anthropomorphic chalk figurines. These artefacts were unearthed from the burials dating back to the Late Roman Period and were unearthed at the cemeteries of Neizats and Opushki. Analogous figurines of white rocks occasionally occurred in Sarmatian burials, predominantly among females and children. Mineralogical and micropaleontological tests of both figurines were undertaken to determi…
Third Century Ad Burial Vaults From the Cemetery of Opushki
There was some important event taking place in the Crimea in the third century AD or a little bit earlier that was probably reflected by the appearance of burial vaults of a special design that had not been previously known in Crimea. These vaults comprised an entrance pit and a burial chamber with a short (0.4–0.8 m long) underground corridor (dromos) dug in between them; the funerals in the burial chamber were made on the floor in one tier. Unt…
A Vault with Stratified Burials from the Fourth Century AD in the Opushki Necropolis
The ancient Opushki necropolis is located in the sub-mountainous area of the Crimea, about 15 km east of modern Simferopol. The excavation of the necropolis uncovered many grave structures from the fourth century AD, burial vaults in particular. Vault no. 274 stood out among all others. There were eight burials in this vault: permanent collapses of vaulting divided them into three tiers by sub-layers of soil. As a result, the burials and the acco…
Gender Markers of the Roman-period Burials in the Cemetery of Opushki
This paper makes an attempt to identify the markers of various gender groups among those buried in the cemetery of Opushki, which is located in the central part of the Crimean foothill area. A total of 266 burials (167 child, 59 female, and 40 male graves) dating from the first to fourth century AD have been analysed. All these monuments belong to the Late Scythian and the Neizats archaeological cultures. The analysis undertaken indicates that ne…
Humans and Dogs in the Same Grave
The excavations at the Late Scythian area of the Opushki cemetery with the complexes from the first century BC to the second century AD uncovered grave no. 326 containing several tiers of burials of four dogs, children, and a headless woman. Skeletons of some of the buried were partially articulated, and only skulls remained of two children’s burials. One of the dogs laid on the back, with the paws stretched out, the neck craned, and a top fragme…
