Abstract

The skull fragment which is the subject of the present article originates from the so-called western cluster of fi nds Maly Log II or Pokrovka in Derbinsky bay of the Krasnoyarsk artifi cial lake (archeologist – Ye.V. Akimova). Direct radiocarbon dating of the sample gives the age of 27740 + 150 BP (OxA-19850), not calibrated. The bone remains of the individual from Pokrovka are represented by a partially destroyed frontal bone. The individual is obviously young, possibly an adolescent. Preliminary study of the bone remains allows to conclude that even over 27 thousand years ago the territory of Siberia was populated by representatives of anatomically modern man.
