ON THE NORTHERN BOUNDARIES FOR THE DISTRIBUTION OF POSTCATACOMBAL ANTIQUITIES OF THE MIDDLE BRONZE AGE IN DESNA REGION

Evidence of the presence of artifacts associated with the catacomb cultural community (Middle Don catacomb culture) and post-catacomb Babinskaya culture (multi-roll ceramics culture) is demonstrated on the territory of the Bryansk Suburb (middle course of the Desna). Thus, in the middle Bronze Age, inhabitants of the forest-steppe and steppe zones, is wedged into the relatively homogeneous cultural massif of forest (Pra-Baltic?) Cultures of cord ceramics. Conclusions are made based on the results of a typological and spatial analysis of finds of stone axes from the collections of local history museums in the Bryansk region. The task of archaeologists at the present stage of research is to search in established areas for the distribution of random finds of settlement, and possibly funerary monuments of multi-rolls ceramics.

Keywords: catacomb culture, Babinskaya culture, multi-roll ceramics culture, stone ax, Desna basin, Bronze Age, landslide.
