The work is devoted to the analysis of elite burial structures of Saryarka – the so-called mound-fences. In the 20th century, it was believed that elite burial complexes of this type did not belong to the sites of the Andronovo community, and were considered as early Begazy, or as sites of a special transitional time. In the last ten years, the study of socially stratified sites has resumed on the territory of Saryarka. In connection with the emergence of new data, there is an opportunity to reconsider the interpretation of the mound-fences. In this article, based on a detailed description and general analysis, we substantiate the Fedorov affiliation of these structures. In addition, the analysis of all the main features allowed us to divide these complexes into two chronological groups – early (17th – first half of the 16th centuries BC) and late (second half of the 16th – first half of the 15th centuries BC).
