The article is devoted to a summary of the results of the study of the Katandinsky valley in 2021 (the Republic of Altai). Anthropogenic impact has destroyed and continues to destroy archaeological sites in the specified territory. Fixing what has been preserved to date is the primary task of its archaeological study. The article presents a map of the archaeological sites of the valley, compiled by coordinating archaeological sites using the GARMIN 62 stc navigator in the WGS-84 coordinate system. A brief description of the discovered objects is given: two types of burial complexes of the Afanasievo culture are distinguished, Pazyryk mounds in the Katanda 1 burialfield, Turkic fences and mounds of the early Middle Ages are marked. The results of a geophysical study of one of the mounds in the Katanda 2 burial field are presented. According to the results of the magnetic survey, it is concluded that the object most likely belongs to the Afanasievo culture. Thus, it is established that using geophysical studies, it is possible to determine the cultural affiliation of funerary monuments, in cases where it is not obvious. We are talking about the numerous completely blackened mounds of the Katandinsky valley. The article presents drawings of objects found on the plowed territory of monuments. Among them there are bronze buckles of the Scythian period, as well as objects that can be attributed to the Turkic era. Of particular note is a bronze plaque in the form of a curled panther, a pendant representing a schematic representation of a human figure and a cast-iron blade from a plow, made in China. A random set of discovered objects reflects the history of the development of the valley
