The ceramic complex of the monument from the collection of Kirov regional local lore museum is introduced into scientific discourse. The ceramics is analyzed and classified into types. According to the results of comparative typological analysis, similar features are observed in relation to the ceramics from the Middle Kama, Lower Kama and Vetluga regions.
