- Abstract
- This paper gives a general description and new drawings of the artefacts from a unique hoard containing 54 items found at the site of Barsov Gorodok I/20 in the Barsova Gora area near the western outskirts of the Surgut city in 1986. Among the finds there are a fragment of the earliest in the taiga Ob area iron sledge hammer, a classical yellow budded glass bead, individual and serial ornaments casted from golden bronze at a nearby settlement after Urals and South Siberian patterns as well. The bead can be tentatively dated to the 4th-3rd century BC while the hoard to the 2nd-3rd century AD. These articles were probably cut off the dress of a shaman and buried in a hole on the ruins of a Kulayka dwelling near a burial with a miniature bronze mask of a helmeted warrior.
