Together with a summary previous research on modern samples, provides most up-to-date map offsets region. The confirm observations highlighting that FREs are widespread but highly variable Steppe both samples. Radiocarbon dates organisms consuming aquatic sources, including humans, dogs, bears, birds...

In this work we generalize the results of our study stonework in Altai at Hun-Sarmat period, based on researches archaeological sources. It is noted that craft represented region only by products stone cutting manufacture, which are basically tools and adornments, among most common ones spindles, grinding bars or whetstones, beads pendants from various types stones. Findings other (incenseburner, graters, plaques) rare. A set technological operations was quite diverse: to make adornments...
«Нестандартное» парциальное погребение исследовано в Центральном Алтае осенью 2010 г. на некрополе гунно-сарматского времени Степушка-2. По элементам погребального обряда и предметам инвентаря могильник датируется 2-й половиной III - 1-й IV в. н.э. Публикуемый курган содержал небольшой яме часть женского костяка с нарушенной анатомической целостностью. Возраст погребенной 14-16 лет. Длина ямы явно не соответствовала предполагаемой длине тела человека, а у скелета отсутствовали многие кости....

Spores of coprophilous fungi are well preserved in various paleoarchives, including bottom sediments lakes. The spend part their life cycle on the dung herbivorous animals, where they produce spores. Due to this feature, used as a qualitative indicator presence and density population using domestic livestock. This paper is aimed at testing hypothesis that fluctuations spore contents independent from climate, i.e., possibility an one for reconstruction eastern Uvs Nuur basin. To do this, we...
