Survey of burial mounds in the Barabinsky and Chanovsky districts of the Novosibirsk region in 2022

Available information on the sites of archaeological heritage- burial mounds Lopushnoe Ozero-3and Lopushnye Ozera-4in the Barabinsky District and Gogol-1and -2 in the Chanovsky District was updated during the archaeological survey conducted in the Barabinsky and Chanovsky Districts of the Novosibirsk Region. We present the results of survey and introduce into scientific circulation the up-to-date information on the localization of the sites. The archaeological survey was executed in the Baraba lowland. Burial mounds in the vicinity to Lopushnoye and Gogol Lakes in the Barabinsky and Chanovsky Districts of the Novosibirsk Region were selected for a rescue archaeological survey carried out under the project of the large-scale reconstruction of the Omsk-Sokur oil trunk pipeline. In the course of archaeological survey, classical methods were used: a walking survey of the area, photo recording of general types of burial mounds and their elements. The topographic features were recorded through the orthogonal photogrammetric technique and the aerial recording of individual mounds through UAVs was made. New information about the amount and localization of mounds was collected. The current state of the mound preservation was determined. The sites are located in the zone of active anthropogenic impact and show traces of destruction -the mounds are damaged by heavy machinery, reconstruction of oil pipelines is underway in the immediate vicinity of the mounds. The survey data actualize the discussion of issues related to the establishment of the boundaries of burial mounds.
