Burial and ritual complex “Kurgan 37 warriors”

The article presents a brief description of the monument, based on new research. The early iron age complex, which is located in the Karaganda region, includes a large mound with stone ridges. The chain located to the north of it includes 37 small round and oval stone structures, as well as numerous menhirs and ring-cult layers. For the first time the monument was discovered and studied in 1951 and in 2012-2013 a new research and some restoration works were conducted here. All previously excavated objects have been fully restored and fallen menhirs were raised and set. New excavations were carried out. In the Mound 11, located in the northern part of the chain, the ancient dromos tomb was opened. It was plundered and contained the bones of the skeleton of the 35-45 year-old man. The radiocarbon date of this mound is placed during the VIII-V cc. BC.
