Burial sites of Scythian time on the southern slope of Yanshan mountains, in Ningxia and Gansu

This article presents a brief review of burial sites of nomads of Scythian time (VII-III centuries B.C.) in the region of the Great Wall. While the first review was dedicated to the sites in the Southern part of Inner Mongolia autonomous region of PRC, the present one deals with the principle sites of three other regions: the southern slope of Yanshan Mountains near Beijing in the East, Southern part of Ningxia-Hui autonomous region and Central part of Gansu province in the West. A detailed analysis of burial rites and grave goods of different regions will enable a more exact cultural and chronological correlation of archaeological types and sites.
