Abstract

The article presents the results of a study of imported materials from the burial ground of Ust-Tartas mounds which located in the Vengerovskyi district of the Novosibirsk region. The site is one of the largest funerary objects of the Sargat culture, whose history dates back to the 18th century. The first excavations were carried out in 1895 and 1896 by S.M. Chugunov. Excavations examined 18 objects, of which seven were attributed to the Sargat culture. The purpose of the work is to introduce imported materials from the excavations of mound No. 51 in 2023 into scientific circulation, to present a brief description of imported products identified at the burial ground. It was recorded that in the materials of the studied mounds one category was singled out — decorations. They are presented as a set, where the main part consists of beads and little beads, sewnon plaques and badges. Three mirrors were recorded. The remaining items are single: earrings, a torc, a fibula, fragments of fabric. Analogies and dates were given for all products. It has been established that most of the materials were used in the 3rd–1st centuries BC; the fi bula is dated back to the 2nd–1st centuries BC — 2nd century AD.
