“Sacrificial Complexes” as an Element of Funerary Traditions of the Vyatka Population in the Early Middle Ages
Journal Title: Поволжская Археология - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 15
Abstract
The author studies “sacrificial complexes” from the graves in the Vyatka burial grounds dated by the 6th – 8th centuries, attributed to the early stage of the Emanaevо culture. Main features of the “sacrificial complexes” are described, such as: occurrence, correlation with the burial practice, their quantity in graves, grave goods, type of container, position in graves, anthropological characteristics and semantics. These data are compared with the Vyatka sites of the previous Pyany Bor period and synchronous sites from the ancient Perm and Volga-Finnish areas.
