- Abstract
Materials from three Scythian tumuli are published (5 burials, 4 of them being catacombs). The burial rite and the artefacts are analyzed in detail. The burial is dated by the last decade of the 4th c. BC. Huge size of burials and preserved inventory allow interpreting this cemetery near the village of Vishnopol as the burial place of several families who belonged to the rich stratum of the ordinary Scythian nomadic population.
