Abstract
The paper considers the remains of the only known female headdress of the late stage of Glyadenovo culture discovered in burial 264 of Mokino burial mound in the vicinity of Perm. The structure of the organic remains of the headdress, design features, as well as the arrangement and fastening of its metal parts were studied, and its type and reconstruction options were determined. The headdress is reconstructed in the form of a ribbon base with a sewn-on fabric of the sincipital portion - a crown sewn from the bottom, decorated along the seam with bronze plaques fastened on a leather strap. Counterparts of the headdress are considered within the framework of clothing development in the late phase of the Iron Age and the Great Migration Period of Peoples from the Kama Region. The article features the results of an analysis of the composition of metal headdress parts analyzed in comparison with the similar article from Oshkinsky burial mound on the Vyatka river.
