The paper presents an analysis of gender–age pattern of the Yamnaya culture population of the Volga-Ural region according to the burial rite data. Based on the data on labor costs and inventory, as well as the disproportion in the burial rite in favor of the male population, a conclusion is made about the existence of patriarchal relations in the Yamnaya culture society. The small number of female and children burials suggests that the barrow rite was intended only for individuals with hereditary or acquired social status. According to the burial rite and goods, it was concluded that women, equally with men, could occupy important production and administrative positions in the Yamnaya culture society. Burials of children and adolescents suggest that the social status and occupations of their parents could be inherited. The hereditary social status is also evidenced by twin burials of children when they were buried facing adults. Such situation probably indicates that children participated in the burial ritual by birthright in a social group with a high status. Another type of treatment of children in twin burials suggests the existence of a ritual when a human sacrifice (child) was placed in the burial of adults.
Archaeology and Early History of Ukraine
Metal Axes of the Early Period of Yamna Culture of UkraineThe paper is dedicated to studying the genesis and building the typechronology of metal axes of early period of yamna culture of Ukraine using all the artifacts and archaeological complexes, available for the author. Currently the reare two main theories of metal axes of Eastern Europe origins: «Maykop» and «Samara». The main theses of «Maykop» theory are presented in works of E. N. Chernyh, S. N. Kornievsky and A. L. Nechytailo. Detailed historiographic referative representation of this theory was recently preformedby V. A. Derhachev, which readers should get acquainted themselves. From my point of view the main problem of this theory is that on the line of ax is connections Baniabik-Maykop-Novosvobodnaya of Central Europe and North Caucasus, declared by the authors of this theory, terra incognita called «Ukraine» is located. The alternative theory, which I call «Samara», and which is systematically ignored by the authors and followers of «Maykop» theory, including V. A. Derhachev...
This paper presents the results of a comparative statistical analysis of the burial rite of the Ananyino, Pianyi Bor and Kara-Abyz cultures. As a source base the random samples were taken from 527 burials of the Ananyino culture, 532 burials of the Pianyi Bor culture and 581 burials of the Kara-Abyz culture. According to the laws of mathematical statistics, this gives a lower threshold for the significance of each of the features equal to 0.7% with a probability criterion of 0.95. The values of the coefficient formal typological similarity (C3) on the basis of 91 alternative funeral ceremony compared crops situated in the range 0.60 - 90.67, show that these cultures without any doubt linked genetically. However, the formation of the Pianyi Bor and KaraAbyz cultures, which comprised the Pianyi Bor ethnic-cultural community, occurred not only on the basis of the Ananyino culture, but with the participation of some other ethnic-cultural component also.
The aim of this paper is to publish new radiocarbon dating data for three complexes stratified under one mound (mound No. 1 in the Boldyrevo IV burial ground in the Western Orenburg region), which are distinguished by the unusual nature of the burial in comparison with the known, reference necropolises of the Yamnaya culture. Kurgan 1, one of the largest in the Volga region and the Southern Urals, was investigated in 2019–2020. The early horizon was represented by two small mounds above the burials of children, surrounded by ditches consisting of separate pits. Later, between the mounds for children, a collective burial of five adults took place in a huge burial chamber with a complex design, over which a large mound was built, which also covered both children’s mounds. All the main burials under the early mounds and burial 5 under the large mound represent a single cultural and epochal complex and belong to the Yamnaya culture. According to archaeological and paleo-soil data, the construction of mound 1 occurred systematically over a time interval that is approximately 200 years. Radiocarbon dating showed that the construction of the mound occurred within the calibrated interval of 3200–2600 BC years. The site, apparently, before and during the creation of the mound, was the site of sacred ceremonies and public meetings of many clans of the Yamnaya culture. The induction burial of two women took place at the top of the mound at the end of the Bronze Age.

To the Issue of Anthropological Contacts Between the Populations of the Srubnaya and Alakul Cultures of the Late Bronze Age in the Southern Urals and Western Kazakhstan Steppes2020 •
Introduction. The work focuses on anthropological materials of the border between two areals: the Srubnaya and Alakul cultures of the Bronze Age. New data is based on the burial grounds of the Kozhumberdy type of the Alakul culture from Western Kazakhstan. Methods and materials. The authors compare the craniological series which are formed according to the geographical localization of the monuments and modern archaeological ideas about their cultural interpretation. Analysis. As a result of statistical analysis, the craniological series of the Srubnaya and Alakul cultures are morphologically quite close, but the latter show higher variability of characteristics. More close to each other are samples of female skulls which show that the formation of physical characteristics of these populations occurred on a single anthropological substrate. Initially, carriers of different caucasoid complexes, mainly of steppe origin, and in a small proportion of the uraloid ones took part in the pro...
The paper provides a critical review of opinions concerning the archeological periodization and cultural history of the Neolithic in the Volga-Oka interfluve region. The history of formation of these opinions can be divided into several phases. The first phase (from the 1920-es to 1973) is characterized by the 1) discovery of the pit-comb ware cultures; 2) identification of different periods within the Neolithic; 3) discussions regarding the validity of the pre-pottery stage in the Neolithic. The two-part model of the Neolithic periodization was established comprising the early and the late stages. During the second phase (from 1973 to the mid-1990-es) the pit-comb ware cultures were assigned to the Late Neolithic, while the Early Neolithic was associated with the Upper Volga culture only. In addition, the regional cultures were described in more detail and subdivided into several periods, according to the changes seen in pottery, as well as stone and bone inventory. The third phase (from the mid-1990-es up to nowdays) is characterized by multiple scenarios of the Neolithic cultural history, and close attention paid to the archaeological source studies. Currently the attention of archeologists is primarily focused on the ethno-cultural processes that are thought to have taken place in the Volga-Oka Neolithic.
The archaeology of the early nomads of the Southern Urals features a relevant and debatable issue of the origin of the early nomadic culture. The source for resolving this issue is the burial ritual. The peculiarities of the buried person's orientation, certain types of burial structures and other elements of the burial ritual at the burial grounds of the early nomads of the Southern Urals have a wide range of analogies in the territory of the Eurasian steppe. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the literature related to the issue of the origin of the early nomads’ culture. The paper summarizes some of the results of the study of foreign cultural features in the burial rite. An analysis of the literature demonstrated that the researchers indicate various regions of Soviet Central Asia, Central Asia (East Turkestan), the Northern Black Sea region, the North Caucasus and the forest-steppe Scythia as the source region. The author comes to a conclusion about the need for an integrated approach to resolving the issue using data from all regions of the Southern Urals as opposed to a local group of sites.

M.S. Kishkurno. Within-group differentiation of the Early Iron Age Bolshaya rechka culture population (Novosibirsk Ob river region)In the article the results of the within-group analysis of the Early Iron age Bolshaya rechka culture population from the Novosibirsk Ob river area are presented. The maximum available database of craniological measurements, including individual data published by a number of other researchers was analyzed. Thus, data on individuals from 11 burial grounds, namely Verkh-Suzun-5, Bystrovka-1, -2, -3, «26 iyunya», Milovanovo-2, -3, -8, Novy Sharap-1, -2, Ordynskoye-1 became the basis of the study. The craniometric measurements were carried out in accordance with the standard protocol of V.P. Alekseev and G.F. Debets. Statistical analysis includes methods of univariate (Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Shapiro-Wilk, Fisher tests, frequency histograms and box plots) and multivariate (principal components analysis) statistics. Certain level of heterogeneity in the anthropological composition of the studying population of the Novosibirsk Ob region, which was not the result of a recent mixing of Mongoloid and Caucasoid groups, was revealed. Apparently, both the male and female Bolshaya rechka groups were related to the autochthonous Siberian component associated with the ancient population of Altai-Sayan Highlands. In addition, some skulls have a specific combination of metric characteristics. It can result from infrequent contacts with either European populations, or another ancient protomorphic groups. Also, few skulls display another specific combination of traits, which is usually associated with the taiga West Siberian populations.
There is made the attempt of paleopathological research of bone materials of the Lower Volga Region population in the pit time period. The research materials are bone remains of 27 individuals of various degree of safety.
The paper features the material of a belt set (pads – 3 types, buckles – 2 types, and a tip) from the burial 6 of “Nizhnyaya Strelka” Mari burial ground, which was used as a basis for a graphic reconstruction of the belt. The belt set is unusual for the Vetluga-Vyatka interfluve, where the burial ground is located. The closest analogies to the pads of all types in a single complex were discovered in barrow 18 of Sineglazovo site of the Subbottsevo circle, as well as in the Hungarian sites of the Arpad period. Based on the dating of the complex given in the article (not later than the mid–10th century) and the revealed analogies to the details of the belt set, it can be assumed that the Vetluga-Vyatka interfluve contains the remnants of the post-Subbottsevo style which penetrated into this region, possibly indirectly, from the population directly familiar with the Subbottsevo traditions.
