Early Tes’ mass graves as evidence of the practice of exposure of corpses (based on the excavations of the Arshanovo-30 kurgan in the Koibal steppe)
During excavations of the Arshanovo-30 burial mound (early period of the Tes’ culture or of Tes’ stage of the Tagar culture), its main mass grave ("crypt", grave 9) was investigated: the first known tomb of this kind, undisturbed by robbers. The results of cleaning the bones and grave goods at the bottom of the crypt give reason to believe that not only individual bones but also fragments of human bodies were buried here, which was most likely th…

On the Chronological Position of Siba Culture Metal Artifacts, Northwest China
В статье показано, что такие характерные для культуры Сыба (пров. Ганьсу, Китай) бронзовые изделия, как литые выпуклые бляхи с петелькой, раструбные серьги со свободным крючком, пластинчатые черешковые кинжалы, представлены в материалах позднекротовской (черноозерской) и андроновской (федоровской) культур, а кельт-тесло со сквозной втулкой из могильника Ганьгуя находит аналогии как в позднекротовских, так и в алакульских и срубных комплексах.

The Dating of Tiles and Tile-Ends Collected During the Archaeological Survey of Pre-Han “Long Wall” in the North of the Shaanxi Province
The article is devoted to the problem of dating a segment of a long (or “great”) wall built in the pre-Han time within the borders of the present Shaanxi province. Traditionally, the construction of this fortified line, going to the North across the Ordos plateau (including the north of Shaanxi), is attributed to the reign of the Qin Zhao-hsiang-wang (after 272 BC). However, the author previously formulated a hypothesis that the wall of Zhao-hsia…

Other longstanding candidate regions for horse domestication, such as Iberia 5 and Anatolia 6 , have also recently been challenged. Thus, the genetic,…

Paleoanthropological study of a skull from a burial at the Chemurchek sanctuary Hulagash (Bayan-Ulgii aimag, Mongolia)
Recent studies show that, in the 3rd millennium BC, the highlands in the basin of the upper reaches of the Khovd (Kobdo) River constituted a ritual zone, which was of particular importance for the population inhabiting the western foothills of the Mongolian Altai Mountains. Its cultural singularity was due to the so-called Chemurchek cultural phenomenon - a set of characteristics of West European origin, which appeared there no later than 2700-26…
