The article deals with gems in the form of prisms with paired images on two sides of each, found in two burials of the 1st– early 2nd centuries AD in Sarmatian burial mounds in the Lower and Middle Don, which belong to a very rare group of works of the Hellenistic and Roman glyptics. The iconography of the images of Hermes, Odysseus or Ajax on two amethyst prisms from a burial mound on the outskirts of Voronezh, as well as a sitting dog with its head thrown back and a star in the image field, on a carnelian prism from the Kobyakovskii burial ground are analyzed in detail. The fact that of the eight prisms known to us – three come from the cemeteries of the Don basin, and two each, which are in the collections of the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts and the State Hermitage, originate (Pantikapaion) or may presumably originate from the North Pontic area, is consistent both with the unusual iconography of prisms from the Don region and the style of images on prisms from a burial mound on the outskirts of Voronezh. These observations give certain grounds to associate the works of glyptics under discussion with the North Pontic (Bosporan?) gem-cutting workshops. The proposed attribution is also confirmed by the fact that the custom of decorating jewelry with gems was especially widespread in the North Black Sea region. The above-discussed prisms were treated by their owners as ornaments and amulets, and not as a means for sealing.
Metal mirrors of the Golden Horde time were massive material and were widely distributed as items of everyday life and cult. Bronze wares with Arabic well-wishing inscription using Naskh script of handwriting deserve specific attention among the many types of mirrors. They were mainly distributed on the territory of the Golden Horde from the Volga to the Dniester. The specified type of finds includes a fragment of a bronze mirror found in the Teia village (Grigoriopol district) on the left bank of the Lower Dniester. As the analysis has shown, the bronze mirror from Teia is the most Western similar item on the territory of the Golden Horde. The analogies from the burial and settlement sites of the Dnieper-Volga interfluve show that the Teia mirror is one of the late replicas and can be dated no later than the middle of the 14th century. A comprehensive study of such bronze mirrors allows us to solve problems associated with the determination of narrower dates and centers of their production.

Abstract. Research objectives: to show modern views on the emergence and spread of the "Black Death" in the Middle Ages, based on the information presented in the Russian and Persian annals, to reconstruct this process. Research materials: in addition to those published in the 2010s. The work of modern scientists in the study was used previously published written sources in Russian and Persian languages. Results and scientific novelty: During the carried-out analysis of the current work of experts in the field of epidemiology, genetics, and the history of the "Black death" was determined the most important dates in the process of the emergence and spread of the disease in the territory of the Russian principalities and the Golden Horde. This allowed a somewhat different look at the existing in medieval Russian and Tatar society view of this disaster. In fact, we can talk about the narrative tradition formed before the beginning of the medieval plague epidemic. Actually, the appearance in the steppe regions of the ulus of Jochi was quite a long process. The largest stages were reflected in the texts of written sources. Previously conducted the national experts ' analysis of the Chronicles often sinned with mistakes and speculation. So, one of the most-quoted Russian authors F. A. Gebrek were able to confirm their words in the analysis of earlier outbreaks could resort to using the for later epidemics of symptoms. Thus, the appeal to the repeated textual analysis of the Russian Chronicles allowed to reveal a number of factual errors rooted in the domestic historiography in the field of the study of medieval epidemics. Keywords: "Black Death", modern approaches to the study of the topic, Russian chronicles, epidemics, mass famine.
