Abstract
Aim. To establish the cultural and chronological characteristics of the burial complexes and their place in the regional periodization of the Don-Donets region on the basis of partially preserved documentation and materials from research on the mound near the town of Kirovsk.
Methodology. A descriptive characterization of the research materials was carried out. When processing the data, comparative typological, stratigraphic and planigraphic methods were used.
Results. By analyzing the entirety of features of the funeral rite and the inventory sets of individual burials, their cultural and chronological position is determined. Based on the stratigraphic data, the construction model of the mound is reconstructed and the relative chronology of the complexes is established.
Research implications. New materials from the Early Metal Age rescue studies of the mound on the Right Bank of the Seversky Donets are introduced into the scientific circulation.
