Journal Title: Поволжская Археология - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 25
Abstract
In the paper, the results of the excavation of two burial mounds of the cemetery near the village of Kamenka in West Orenburg region are introduced into scientific circulation for the first time. In the burial mound No. 1, a stone ring structure with pottery vessels confined to it was identified, in the center of which there was a pit - a cenotaph. The complex was abandoned by the population of the Srubnaya culture. Three burials were found in the burial mound No. 2. Two main graves have an early Srubnaya cultural affiliation. For women's burial has been characterized with features of the Pokrovka culture. It contained a rich inventory, including a rare finding for the region – the maxillofacial pendant. Male burial on the basis of the main features may be defined as Berezhnovka-Maevka culture. Judging by the data of radiocarbon analysis, in this necropolis the Berezhnovka type burial was accomplished somewhat earlier than the Pokrovka type burial. Inlet burial of the burial mound refers to the final period of the Bronze Age and tends to the Chernogorovskaya culture on the basis of the main features of the funeral rite.
