Burial site Ust-Shilka II as indicator of cultural and historical situation Early Iron epoch of Yenisey Trans-Angara territory

Archaeological heritage of Early Iron epoch of Middle Siberia is studied nonuniform, that's why materials of completely investigated sites at the South periphery of taiga area take on important significance. Investigation of Early Scythian epoch burial site in river Shilka mouth on Yenisey Trans-Angara Territory allowed allotting several kinds of funeral rites, which had existed at the same time relatively. They had been inhumation without burning, inhumation with burning in grave, corpse dismemberment or reinterment. Every group had had own funeral implements, and pottery sometimes. This allowed referring them to different cultural and historical complexes, which had existed parallel. They are nijneporojinsky, shilkinsky, kamensko-makovsky. These cultural complexes had had own cradles of origin and own circle of external action. Available data about local bronze mixture, vestiges of bronze casting, presence of copper and tin deposits on Yenisey mountain-ridge allowed supposing that ore-bearing place had been one of reasons of nomad migrations from Sayan and Altay steppe areas to Middle Siberian south taiga zone and their cultural influence on taiga population.
