A kurgan of the kelermes period at the Dysh IV cemetery (Republic of Adygea)

This paper deals with materials from excavations of kurgan 2 at the Dysh IV burial ground. It examines items from the primary burial of the kurgan focusing on a bronze cast scabbard-end decorated with a relief image of a coiled predator. The analysis of the data indicates that the kurgan was constructed in the third quarter of the 7th century BC.
