Abstract

This article explores some issues of the ethnic history of the indigenous population of the Omsk Irtysh region. This paper analyses the materials of the burial mound of Mogilno-Starozhilskoe-V, studied by the authors in 2018–2019. The site is located in the range of the northern forest-steppe of the Tobolo-Irtysh region. Th e burial ground consists of 80 mounds located on a low-lying remnant in the floodplain of the left bank of the Irtysh. As a result of the excavations, 4 burial mounds and a ritual complex associated with memorial rites were investigated. All burials were violated in ancient times for ritual purposes. The revealed details of the funeral rite and the accompanying inventory allowed us to conclude that the site was left by the nomadic population of the 14th — 15 th centuries. The study of historical and ethnographic materials, as well as a comparative analysis of archaeological data, gives reason to believe there is an ethno-cultural connection of this group with the Baraba Turks.
