РАДИОУГЛЕРОДНАЯ ХРОНОЛОГИЯ ПАМЯТНИКОВ АЛТАЯ ЭПОХИ ВЕЛИКОГО ПЕРЕСЕЛЕНИЯ НАРОДОВ: ПРОБЛЕМЫ И ПЕРСПЕКТИВЫ

Abstract

The article presents the results and prospects of the radiocarbon analysis of the Great Migration period sites in Altai. The generalization of the available data (more than 40 dates) made it possible to set a number of questions that determine the directions of further research. Preliminary conclusions about the upper boundary of the existence of the Bulan-Koby culture are made, the possibility of distinguishing two stages within the Belo-Bom and Verkh-Uimon phases of this community is demonstrated, the importance of a systematic study of large necropolises, as well as clarification of the extent of the reservoir effect, already identified from the materials of individual complexes, is indicated.
