О ПОЗДНЕСАРМАТСКИХ БРОНЗОВЫХ ЛИТЫХ КОТЛАХ

Выпуск № 1 от 01.01.2014

The article examines bronze cast cauldrons without coasters of the late Sarmatian archaeological culture of the Lower Povolozhye and the South Cisurals in comparison with similar Xiongnu specimens found on the territory of the South Siberia and North China. The analysis of morphological and technological features confirms that in the first centuries AD there were two independent ways of cauldrons manufacturing in Eurasian steepe. One follows the traditions of Savromats-Sarmatians cast traditions while another is of the North China ones. Considering the group of the late Sarmatian cauldrons of the South Cisurals out of the context of identical specimens from the territory of Lower Povolzhye and the Don region and only in the context of the development of Xiongnu cauldrons of the South Siberia and North China as some of the researches do is unjustified.

КОТЛЫ ТИПА "ТАХТИ-САНГИН-БАРМАШИНО": К ПРОБЛЕМЕ ВЗАИМОПРОНИКНОВЕНИЯ ТРАДИЦИЙ МЕТАЛЛООБРАБОТКИ В ЦЕНТРАЛЬНОЙ АЗИИ

Выпуск № 4 от 01.10.2014

The author analyses a “type” of bronze cauldrons “Takhti-Sangin-Barmashino” and concludes that this “type” as a taxonomic unit does not exist as it consists of the examples that differ according both morphological and technological parameters. They are dated on the basis of the complex near the Lake Borovoe not earlier than the 6 ^th century. The usage of such “analogues” for reconstructing “casting forms” with Greek inscriptions from the settlement Takhti-Saka referring to the second half of the 1 ^st - the beginning of the 2 ^nd centuries AD, is incorrect. Simultaneously, the problem of the mutual interfering of the Greek, Chinese and Scythian- Saka traditions of the metalwork on the territory of Greece-Bactria in the epoch of Hellenism is considered premature.
