- Abstract
- The article publishes new materials from a ruined catacomb burial near Kislovodsk. The Konhutorsky 2 cemetery had been discovered by robbers; investigations by the IARAS expedition took place in 2007-2008. The herein published Catacomb 2 yielded interesting materials which allow to date the burial to the second half of the 7th c. AD. The dating is based on analysis of the bead assemblage, the gold earrings with pyramid-shaped pendant and the pottery fragments. The herein published specifi c bead assemblage with cross-shaped jet separators, fl attened amber beads and poorly faceted carnelian beads can serve as a chronological indicator for catacomb burials in the Kislovodsk basin.
