The grave of Pakhomovo culture at Tartas-1 burial ground

This publication contains information on field research of burials of Pahomovo culture related to the Late Bronze Age in the Barabinsk forest steppe. The excavations produced ceramic material which combines features of Andronovo and Late Bronze Age that is a characteristic feature for Pahomovo settlement and funeral complexes. Particularly significant discovery is a bronze nail-shaped pin. In Western Siberia such objects are typical for the monuments of the transition period from bronze to iron. Due to grave goods it was possible to refer the complex to the final stage of Pahomovo culture.
