KIPRINSKY BOROK (FOREST-STEPPE ALTAI): HISTORICAL, CULTURAL, TECHNICAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE CERAMIC COMPLEX OF EARLY IRON AGE AND MIDDLE AGES
Abstract
Based on the analysis of the published materials and new findings, the archaeological complex Kiprinsky Borok has been given a general description, its various cultural and chronological objects have been identified, partially reflecting the material culture of the population of the forest-steppe Altai from the Neolithic to ethnographic modernity. The article presents the characteristics of fragments from ceramic ware of the Early Iron Age and the Middle Ages (Kamenskaya, Staroaleiskaya, Kulaiskaya, Odintsovskaya archaeological cultures, II millennium AD). With the help of technical and technological analysis, a common tradition in the use of raw materials (medium-ferruginized plastic clays) and mineral impurities (chamotte) has been revealed. For medieval ceramics, a small number of vessels from other raw materials is usually found, which may indicate the appearance of a new population in the territory of the site. The presence of recipes that reflect the mixing of cultural traditions in the choice of mineral impurities (chamotte + gruss) developed in different landscape zones indicates the mixing of the population in the periods under consideration (Kamenskaya and Odintsovskaya cultures).
