PROSPECTS FOR A REPEAT STUDY OF SCYTHIAN TIME BARROWS IN ALTAI (ABOUT FIELDWORK ON PAZYRYK).
The article discusses the prospects of re-researching the previously studied mounds of the Pazyryk culture of Altai. Examples of successful cases of secondary excavations of the barrows are given, the goals and approaches to such procedures are discussed. The experience of the joint expedition of the Gorno-Altai State University and the State Hermitage in the Fifth Pazyryk Barrow in the Ulagan District of the Altai Republic (Russia) is examined in detail. In the course of preparing the monument for museumification, the need arose for the restoration of the excavated burial mounds. In order to develop an approach to the reconstruction of destroyed mounds, repeated studies are first conducted. During the excavations it was found that despite the lack of reclamation in the grave pits, favorable conditions were formed for the conservation of wood and other organic materials. There was a lot of water in the grave pit; frozen soil was in the lower part. An external log house of the burial chamber was found, along with powerful pillars supporting logs. Some items were also found – fragments of felt carpet, scraps of gold foil, details of the wagon, decoration of horse equipment, etc.
