Abstract

Within the framework of this article, the results of the studies carried out on the mound 7 of the Taldinskiy-1 burial ground in 2018 by the archaeological expedition of the Karaganda State University are introduced into the scientific circulation. New information about the early history of Andronovo tribes in the territory of Central Kazakhstan is obtained. The monument is located in the Shetsky district of the Karaganda region, 93 km southeast of the city of Karaganda, 12 km east-northeast of the village of Taldy and is located on a relatively flat area on the left bank of the river. Taldy, on which 18 structures of two cultural-chronological horizons were visually fixed: the early Andronovo (Petrovo / early Alakul type) and the late bronze (Begazy-Dandybaev type) horizons. Ceramic material, according to the authors, characterizes the early stage of Petrovsky culture (which is reflected in the presence of an internal rib under the whisk, patterning with a rope, Abashevo appearance of a ritual vessel, the presence of a large soil pit and funeral equipment). In contrast to the established opinion on the presence of only the late-stage monuments in the region, a well-founded assumption is advanced that the accumulated early Andronovo materials can be divided into two stages of Petrovo culture: early (Petrovo) and late (similar to Kulevchinsky), which is reflected in the ceramic complex and objects inventory.
