Abstract. The article analyzes the findings on the Neolithic burial discovered at the Udachny-14 burial site in the city of Krasnoyarsk. The skeleton of a child of 9-10 years old was located head to the south-west parallel to the river (upstream). Over the grave there is a hearth in which the red deer calcaneal bone is found. Between the skull and the pelvis bones, two beaver incisors lying parallel to each other, could relate to clothing or to decoration. A piece of ochre was found near the left instep bones. Almost all the bones of the legs of the buried individual were in anatomical order and were elongated along the long burial axis. The corpus bones, shoulder girdle and head were greatly displaced. Such order of the bones suggests that the grave was disturbed a short time after the funeral. Odontologic examination of the remains shows a combination in the dentition structure of the "eastern" and "western" signs with a predominance of the first ones. The greatest odontologic similarity of the buried individual is related to a few Neolithic series from the Northern Angara region, which partially correlates with the archaeological data. Based on the 14C date and the stratigraphic position, the burial is dated to the late Neolithic (the end of the 4th millennium BC). Among the few sites in the region, it finds analogies in the necropolises of "Bor" urotshistshe at the mouth of the Bazaikha river, near the summer children's camps of the GorONO and in the Gremyachiy Ruchei burial ground.

Introduction

The Neolithic era of the Middle Yenisei's studied extremely unevenly. One of the concentration of archaeological sites is located in Krasnoyarsk and its outskirts, known as the Krasnoyarsk archaeological area. Its assumed, not only their accessibility for the researchers, but also the landscape originality was the reason for that - the mountain, piedmont and plain landforms conjoin together; there are also taiga and forest-steppe ecosystems, which, undoubtedly, should have been reflected in the ancient history of this territory.

Currently, the Krasnoyarsk region has about 17 Neolithic burials out of eight burial grounds excavated and studied by the researchers since the end of the 19th century. The issues of their cultural reference and dating have been discussed numerous times. Thus, for the first time, the burials of the "Bor" urotshistshe at the mouth of the Bazaikha river, excavated and studied by I.T. Savenkov (Savenkov, 2001: 89), were dated to the Neolithic period. Later, N.K. Auerbakh pointed to their connection with the Kitoy burial grounds in the upstream water of the Angara (Auerbakh, 1929: 4). This idea was developed by A.P. Okladnikov, who proved the influence of the cultures found in the buried complexes of the Baikal region on the Krasnoyarsk area. In particular, he identified two groups of Neolithic burials - the early group was compared with the Serovo culture, while the latter one was synchronized with the Late Kitoy and the Early Glazkovo complexes (Okladnikov, 1949: 13, 1957: 34-36). Subsequently, L. P. Khlobystin in his summary on the Neolithic of the Middle Yenisei, linked most of the burials (Bazayskaya site, Afonto-va Gora, from Uzenkaya ulitsa, Gremyachy Ruchei) to the Early Bronze (the second half

of the 3rd millennium BC) and correlated them to the West Angara pottery types (Khlobystin, 1996: 293-294). By publishing the archival reports on the Neolithic burials excavations on Afontova Gora, N.P. Makarov and A.S. Vdovin justified their earlier dating - the second half of the 5th - early 4th millennium BC (Vdovin, Makarov, 2016).

The abovementioned conflicts are mainly caused by insufficient information about the objects and their absolute dating, as well as the materials for the burials - settlements comparative analysis. Therefore, the discovery of a new burial complex is of particular importance for the study of the Neolithic in the Krasnoyarsk region. This work aims presenting and analyzing materials on the burial of a child excavated by the Archaeological team of Siberian Federal University in 2015 in the Udachny-14 site.

Materials

The burial was found in excavation site № 2 in the southwestern part of the Udachny-14 area, 50 meters from the current edge of the 8-meter high terrace of the Yenisei. Geographically, the complex is at the border of the Krasnoyarsk forest-steppe and the mountain-taiga offspurs of the Eastern Sayan.

The site belongs to the Monastery complex of archaeological sites and occupies the territory of the active Dormition Monastery, built in the end of the 19th century. Most of the site suffered intensive exploration, reclamation and interception with some construction debris (Titova, Biryuleva, Mandryka, 2017).

The overgrave construction of the soil burial was not found. At the level upper part of the brown sandy loam soil horizon, at 19 cm depth from the lower boundary of the current man-made layer, overlapping the southwestern half of the grave, a fireplace with a dark lens

Fig. 1. The plan of the burial from the Udachny-14 site

was found (Fig. 1). The oval shape lens, NW-SE elongated with axis, 76^45 cm, consisted of a dark gray sandy loam free of foreign inclusions. It included an uninjured red deer calcaneal bone (Cervus elaphus)1 free from fire. A part of the lens in the eastern segment is destroyed by the modern excavations.

Under the hearth in the body of the brown sandy loam, the fragmentary skull, lower jaw, separately lying molar tooth and vertebra (?) alongside with other bones of the postcranial human skeleton, were unearthed. The lower extremities and pelvis were registered at the same line with the skull. The grave pit borders were unreadable and were identified roughly relying

on the skeleton position and darker colour of the sandy loam. The area occupied by the human bones was 112^42 cm. The skeleton lied with the head south-west parallel to the river (upstream) (Fig. 1). Between the skull and pelvic bones two lying parallel beaver incisors and a pebble were lying. A unbroken stone micro-blade and one fragment lied under the skull and near the lower jaw (Fig. 2), and a piece of ochre was found near the left instep bones.

Anthropological research

When reconstructing the burial posture, the field materials and observations, relevant literature (Zaitseva, Razhev, 2007; Du-day, 2009) and the author's methodology of D.I. Razhev, following the lecture course on "Field anthropology" (not published), were

used. Visual macro-morphological methods and a set of independent indicator systems were applied to determine the individual's age at the time of death. First of all, the age was identified by the dental formation and eruption (Ubelaker, 1978). When examining the postcranial skeleton, the maturity, basis and glued degree of epiphysis and apophysis were considered (Alekseev, 1966; Bass, 1987). The dental non-metric examination was carried out following the traditional Russian methodology developed by A.A. Zubov (Zubov, 1968; Zubov, 2006), which includes obtaining non-metric and metric features. Moreover, the dental system's archaic features were studies through the recording programme (Zubova, 2013).

Almost all the buried individual's bones of the lower limbs were in the northeastern part of the grave in anatomical order, elongated

along the long burial axis. The tibia, left femoral bone, separate left tarsal bones and phalanges were placed in anatomical joint in the back. The right femoral bone was displaced: it was inclined to the burial axis with the distal end to the northeast between the bones of the left leg, on the back surface. The pelvic bones, in the light of a small misalignment, anatomically agreed the right femoral bone. The corpus bones, shoulder girdle and head were displaced. Notably, the skull lied in the center of the burial, on the right side face, and the facial skeleton faced north. The lower jaw rested in the western sector, in the original location of the skull. The bones of the forelimb, scapula and ribs were randomly split around the grave edges.

Basing on the bones order, we can give the following findings on the funeral posture of

that buried individual: they were laid on their back with legs extended along the burial axis; judging by the distance between the tibia, the legs were not fastened together, i.e. were laid freely. The body, apparently, was also elongated along the grave axis, that is, the lateral or inclination position in regard to the legs was excluded. The position of the hands and head upon the funeral is impossible to identify, since the southwestern part of the grave was disturbed. As the result, the corpus, upper limbs and head were displaced, while the lower jaw remained the same place. The pelvic bones and the right femoral bone were dislocated, but they were most likely joint before. It is known, that the soft tissues that connect the femoral bone and pelvis are corrupted last. It is highly likely that the grave was disturbed a short time after the funeral (Zaitseva and Razhev, 2007; Duday, 2009).

All the damaged bone remains belonged to one individual, judging by the size and growth - a child. The age-at-death, recorded by the dental system analysis, was 9-10 years (Ubelaker, 1978). At this age, the skeleton still continues to grow, new ossification points appear, and already existing bones are gracile and fragile. As it appears from the bones structure of the postcranial skeleton, the age of buried individual is approximately Infantilis II (the scapula coracoid and brachial processes are persistent, there are no synostoses in almost all epiphyses of the long bones and pelvis) (Alekseev, 1966; Bass, 1987); no traces of damage or pathology were found; there were either no enamel hypopla-sia lines on the tooth crowns. This proves that in the early childhood the living conditions - food, housing and care - were quite satisfactory. In total, 27 permanent and 8 primary teeth with no caries were documented. There were no crown or enamel breaks

as well; dental calculus can be fixed on the lower incisors.

Due to the infancy, there was no option to carry out a craniological examination, though, the well-preserved teeth made it possible to perform a dental non-metric analysis. Among the upper jaw teeth, the right medial and lateral incisors, canine teeth, premolars, primary and permanent molars were available for the research. The right medial incisor was marked with moderate marginal ridges of the lingual surface (score 1), more developed on the lateral incisors (score 2). The finger-shaped ridges were noticed on the first incisor, and developed lingual cusp- on the second ones (score 2). The canine teeth were marked with a poor lingual cusp (score 1) and distal accessory ridges. In the first premolar teeth there was lingual tubercle, smaller than the buccal one (score 1), in the second - a shade less, indeed (score 2). The hypocone of the first and second molars was not reduced (score 4), same as the metacone (score 1). The Carabelli cusp in the first molars was well developed (score 3). The anterior and posterior pits were absent, but there were additional marginal C5 cusp. The average modulus of the upper molars, calculated through the module M1 and M2, was indicated within the microdontia boundaries (Table 1).

The teeth of the lower jaw were represented by permanent incisors, canine teeth, the first right and the second left premolar, permanent and primary molars. The lower incisors had no shovel shape form; a distal accessory ridge was on the canines. The first premolar had a canine-like shape (type 2), the second premolar was molarized and three-cusp shape (type 5). This class was marked with distal accessory ridges. The first molars with the "Y"-groove were of 5-cusp shape; the second molars were 4-cusp, with the "X"-groove form. Protostylid was absent in the

first molars, but a protostylid pit was fixed in the second ones. Tami (c7), accessory cusp and distal trigonid crest were absent. In the first molars, a deflecting wrinkle was recorded, thus, the second metaconid groove enters the fissure III (2medIII). The average module size of the lower molars set was within the mi-crodontia characteristic (Table 1).

Thus, the dental complex recorded in the buried individual in the Udachny-14 justifies the combination of "eastern" and "western" signs with a predominance of the first ones. Single archaic markers give special originality to the complex.

Discussion

Relying on the sum of archaeological and anthropological data, the most likely is the following reconstruction of the funeral ceremony. The child corpse was laid in a shallow grave pit, elongated on its back with its head to the southwest (parallel to the river, head upstream). In a short period of time, the grave was disturbed, which is proved by the displacement of the skull and some bones of the postcranial skeleton. The beaver incisors, which could relate to clothing or to jewellery, appeared accidentally or were specially laid. When excavating the grave or filling it, in the burial, there two stone microblades and river pebble appeared, and over the disturbed part of the grave an untouched red deer calcaneal bone was placed over the buried skull. It is likely that the displacement of the bones and their subsequent covering were a part of the ritual or memorial ceremonies.

The burial is dated by the Late Neolithic (the end of the 4th millennium BC), as resulted from the absolute 14C dating performed on the buried individual's bone. The obtained AMS date marked the time of death 4570 ± 58 (NSKA-1636), which, providing for calibration, gives a 79.5% probability of the formation of the burial within 3385-3092 years BC2. The stratigraphic context of the burial pit and the skeleton also meet this date. They are recorded above the level of the third cultural layer of the site, where the stone industry and frag-

ments of ceramics of the Ust'-Belaya type are found (Gurulev, Biryuleva, 2018). By analogy to the pottery complexes of the sites of the Krasnoyarsk forest-steppe, this layer is date by the Middle Neolithic (mid - second half of the 4th millennium BC) (Makarov, 2005: 154-156; Timoshchenko, Savel'ev, Bobrov, 2016: 100).

The burial tools do not contradict the Late Neolithic age as well. The beaver incisors, as a part of accompanying funeral equipment, are quite often found in the complexes belonging to the Late Neolithic and the Early Bronze across the vast territories of Siberia (Petrov, 1994: 60; Okladnikov, 1950: 385; Okladnikov, 1976: 58, 209; Privalikhin, Drozdov, Makulov, 2013: 51; Dudarek, Lokhov, Leibova, 2015: 55, etc.). In the Krasnoyarsk region, they were found in a collective burial at the mouth of the Gremy-achciy Ruchei and in one of the burials (№ 5 according to Table 2) of the "Bor" urotshitsche (Glusskaia, 1963b; Savenkov, 1886).

To reveal the cultural affiliation of the Udachny-14 burial site, it should be compared by the funeral ceremony with the Neolithic complexes of the Krasnoyarsk region (Table 2) and adjacent territories. In Krasnoyarsk and its outskirts, eight locations of the Neolithic burials are known, all of them are located at different terraces of the Yenisei (Fig. 3). The largest necropolis contains 6 Neolithic graves, in which 7 individuals were buried; it was examined in the "Bor" urotshitsche, 200 meters west of the mouth of the Bazaikha (Savenkov, 1886; 2001; Auerbakh, 1929)3. Three more "simultaneously buried skeletons of the Stone Age" were excavated by V.V. Peredolsky in 1894 "on the right coast of the Yenisei, detached by the Mana and the Esaulovka" (Peredolskii, 1896: 210-211)4.

On Afontova Gora, in the complex of five burials (Vdovin, Makarov, 2016), the four belong to the Neolithic. The first was found by N.K. Auerbach, V.I. Gromov together with M.M. Gerasimov. It turned out to be destroyed - there were only bone and horns items

3 Burial № 2 there refers to the Bronze Age judging by the celt finding (Savenkova, Makarov, 2018: 159).

4 Some researchers supposed that these findings were made near Perevoznaya (Okladnikov, 1949: 11) or at the Perev-oznaya site (Savenkova, Makarov, 2018: 159).

preserved. The second burial was studied in the "landslide on the hillside" in 1932 by A.F. Kat-kov and V.G. Kartsov (At al.; Savenkova and Makarov, 2018). The third one was found by A.P. Okladnikov in 1937; it was located three meters from the excavation area of A.F. Kat-kov (Okladnikov, 1949). The information about the fourth, also destroyed, Neolithic burial on Afontova Gora burial site was brought to the Krasnoyarsk Museum of Local Lore in 1977 (Vdovin, Makarov, 2016).

Some of the bones of at least 7 individuals (five adults and two children) were discovered in 1959 by Z.K. Glusskaya (1963b) in two graves at the mouth of the Gremyachiy Ruchei. In 1955, she excavated another Neolithic burial of a 30-35 years old woman near the summer children's camps of GorONO 5(Glusskaia, 1963a). The exact location of another Neolithic burial is unknown. It was opened in 1966 by A.N. Lipsky and was published by V.P. Alek-seev (Alekseev, 1983). This is the burial of a girl of 12-13 years old, buried on her back with her head south. As part of the accompanying tools, a shells-made necklace and a red deer tooth pendant were found there. In addition, there are some reports that the burial, presumably of the Neolithic time, was excavated by a local historian K.V. Gorchakovsky, but the data was lost.

All considered burials are similar on a number of common features (Table 2). They are all soil, without stone masonry and overgrave construction. There are more individual burials, two cases are twin graves, and one is, presumably, collective. In all the burials, the bones are placed along the river, head upstream (west and southwest); one with the head downstream (east), two (?) were placed perpendicular to the river (north and south), and one more - at an angle to the river (southwest). In 9 graves, the anatomical order of the skeleton was modified: the bones were displaced, and some of them were missing. Not all such cases were reasoned by the ritual actions, at least four of the graves were complete or partial destroyed by the slope processes. In three cases, the presence funeral fire was evident and in the same number of burials there were ochre remains.

The ritual closest to the funeral from the Udachny-14 are the 5th and 6th burials of the "Bor" urotshitsche at the mouth of the Bazaikh excavated by I.T. Savenkov in 18856 (Savenkov, 1886: 32, 2001: 88-89). They are similar by the bones placed along the east-west 7line, by their location parallel

to the Yenisei watercourse, with their heads upstream, and by the presence of fire remains between these neighbouring graves. In the 6th burial of the "Bor", as well as in the Udachny-14 burial site, the anatomical order of the lower extremities bones was preserved, given the absence and displacement of the upper body bones: the skull lay near the pelvis bones, facing the north. A wide opening was noted on the skull in the temporal region, interpreted by the author as a sign of trepanation (Savenkov, 2001: 88). Near the skeleton, a small assembly with a polisher (?), ground adze, knife, bone dagger with grooves, and zoomorphic bone-made figures were found. A.P. Okladnikov (1957) pointed out the similarity between the equipment from the burials at the mouth of the Bazaikha and the Serovo burials, though, he also said about the differences in the funeral rites.

The funeral ceremony details noted in the Udachny-14 burial are also presented in the burials at the summer children's camps of the GorONO and the Gremyachiy Ruchei. In the grave pit of the GorONO burial, perpendicular to the river, as the researcher notes, the anatomical order of the female skeleton was disturbed; relatively correct anatomical order of the upper bones of the postcranial skeleton was preserved. The bones of the legs were placed over the corpus bones. The skull was in the lower, southern part of the grave (Glusskaia, 1963a: 29). Among the grave goods, there were ornaments made of the canine teeth of wild boar pig, wolf and bear, also of the bones, stones, river shells and pearls, as well as adzes, scraper-like tools, knife, scrapers, and needle case (Glusskaia, 1963a: 31). In two graves of the Gremyachiy Ruchei, along the east - west line, presumably along the river, the anatomical order of the bones was also disturbed and the burials were mostly destroyed. The funeral equipment included tools (fragment of the adze, fragments of arrowheads, needle case, bone awls and borers, etc.) and jewelleries, including a bracelet (?) made of the beaver incisors, animal teeth pendants (polar fox, maral, bear), bone plates with the images of birds, mother-of-pearl beads, as well as made of bone

of the 5th burial given here (Savenkov, 2001: 89).

porTable art depicting fish, moose and birds (Glusskaia, 1963b: 40). There no another general features of the Udachny-14 burial with other well-known burials in the Krasnoyarsk region noted.

The analysis of the Neolithic burials from different regions of Siberia allowed I.T. Savenkov to outline, and later A.P. Okladnikov, to identify the local features of the Krasnoyarsk burials. These included: the absence of stone masonry, the bone needle-shaped points among the tools, which have cuts instead of ears, a significant number of pearlescent beads, ceramic vessels, partially resembling egg-shaped pots and zonal ornament of the Afanasyevo culture.

Comparing the burials on the ritual and equipment, A.P. Okladnikov divided them into two groups. The early one - the Serovo - included the burials with the figures of moose and inset tools at the Bazaikha (graves 5 and 6) and the burial in Bateny (the Minusinsk Hollow). The last group, in his opinion, represented by the burials 1, 2 of Afontova Gora, the destroyed burial (?) on K. Marksa street in the city of Krasnoyarsk and burials 1 and 2 near Perevoznaya site. They are characterized by soil graves without masonry, partial filling with red ochre, ceramic vessel, jewelleries -small white beads and mother-of-pearl beads, moose incisors pendants, pear-shaped pendants made from maral canines, and sculptural objects (including awl-shaped human figures), bone plates (armours). For this group, he pointed out the similarity of a number of features with the burials from the Baikal region and the lower reaches of the Angara ("the later Kitoy, or, even closer, the early Eneolithic, such as the Anosovo burial") (Okladnikov, 1949: 12-13; Okladnikov, 1957).

Taking into account some further discoveries, the two-term scheme for the development of Neolithic burial complexes proposed by A.P. Okladnikov requires clarification. So, the visions of the groups' age have changed. The "late" burials, judging by the Ust'-Belaya type vessels found in burial № 4 on Afonto-va Gora, can be dated to the Middle Neolithic (Makarov, 2005; Savenkova, Makarov, 2018). The Serovo funeral tradition, according to the overall 14C dating of burials, is currently cor-

related with the Late Neolithic (5571 ± 88 -4597 ± 76 cal BP) (Bazaliiskii, 2012; Weber at all., 2016). Thus, "the early" burial group considered by A. P. Okladnikov should be dated as well. It can contain (except for the number 5 and 6 of the "Bor" urotshitsche, familiar to the author) the burials of the Gremyachy Ruchei, at the GorONO dachas and of the Udachny-14 site, which were discovered later. Their similarity was reasoned by a deliberate disturbance of the anatomical order of the buried individual and the presence of an above- or near-grave fire. Different sets of accompanying equipment were probably linked to the age and gender of the buried. However, it should be noted that all of them necessarily have jewellery made of animal teeth, of bone in the form of pear-shaped pendants (simulating the teeth), of pearls and stones.

It is possible to use the obtained anthropological data in searching for the analogies to the materials of the Udachny-14. Due to the observations unicity, it is not possible to carry out a statistical intergroup comparison of the dental non-metric features, but it makes sense to compare them with the known Neolithic samples. Unfortunately, to date, the materials drawn for the comparison from the Neolithic burials around the city of Krasnoyarsk have not been examined according to the dental non-metric programme. There were only the series of the East European Plain of pit-comb ceramics culture (Fomino, Karavaikha) (Zubova, 2016: 143-144) and of the Dnieper-Donetsk cultural community (Yasinovka, Nikolskoye, Vovnigi-1) (At al.) available for the comparison. There are the data on samples from the forest-steppe foothills of Altai (Solonetsy 5, Ust'-Isha), the Kuznetsk Basin (Lebedi, Vas'kovo) and the Barabinskaya forest-steppe (Sopka-2/1, Pro-toka, Korchugan) (Chikisheva, 2012). The population of the Eastern Siberia is represented by the samples from the Baikal region on the Kitoy (Fofonovsky burial site) (Leibova, Zhambaltarova, 2016), the Serovo (Manzur-ka, Verkholensk, Vorobyevo, the mouth of the Belaya river) and the Glazkovskaya burial traditions (Obkhoy, Makarovo, the mouth of the Belaya river, Fofanovo, Nikolskoye, Buret' -

Sukhaya Pad ', Shivera), as well as a series of the Ymyyakhtak Late Neolithic culture of Yakutia (Pomazkino, Kamenka-2, Matta, Der-ing-Yuryakh, Kerdyugen, Vilyuiskoye shosse) (Zubova, 2018). A short anthropological sample from the Sosnovy Mys burial site on the territory of the Northern Angara region was also used for the analysis (Privalikhin, 1998; unpublished copyright data).

In the pit-comb ceramics culture groups and in the Dnieper-Donets cultural community of the East European Plain, the marks of the eastern stem are almost absent (Zubova, 2016: 143-144). The Neolithic population of the Altai forest-steppe foothills is characterized by both a combination of high frequencies of individual features and the "eastern" and "western" features (Solontsy 5), and the predominance of the "eastern" indicators (Ust'-Isha). A mosaic mix of the "eastern" and "western" dental markers was also attributed to the population of the Kuznetsk Basin. The dental non-metric data of the Barabinskaya forest-steppe is characterized by the strong "eastern" features in the complex (Chikishe-va, 2012: 51-53).

The Eastern Siberia data merges by the overwhelming majority of the "eastern" markers: increased frequencies of shovel-shaped incisors, six-cusp forms first lower molars, lower frequencies of four-cusp second molars (Leibova, Zhambaltarova, 2016; Zubova, 2018). At the same time, in the series of the Baikal Region Neolithic, there are increased frequencies of the Carabelli cusp (the Kitoy and the Serovo burial traditions), as well as great number (the Kitoy burial tradition) and high frequencies of tami (the Glazkovskaya and the Serovo burial traditions). The Yakutia Neolithic is characterized by high frequencies of deflecting wrinkle. The greatest similarity of the individual from the Udachny-14 is with the short Neolithic series from the Northern Angara region. It was in this small group that a similar combination of signs of the "eastern" (shovel-shaped incisors, deflecting wrinkle), "western" (Carabelli cusp, four-cusp second lower molars) stems and archaic markers (finger-like crests on the central incisors and distal ridge on the premolars) were

noted (unpublished copyright data). Relying on the information above, the population of the Krasnoyarsk region in the Late Neolithic period was likely to have more ties with the groups from the Northern Angara region than with the population from the Baikal Region (the Southern Angara Region, the Baikal and the Upper Lena).

Such similarity of the examined anthropological materials of the Sosnovy Mys burial site (the 1974-1986 excavations) and the Udachny-14 burial site has not been confirmed by the archaeological data. Reliably attributed to the Late Neolithic, burial № 9 demonstrates poor relations in the ritual and accompanying burial tools with the Krasnoyarsk ones (Priva-likhin, Drozdov, Makulov, 2013: 46-54). There are some similarities revealed with the Neolithic burials, discovered at the Sosnovy Mys during the 2011 rescue operations, in the funeral rite: the absence of masonry in some graves, the elongated position of the bones on the back, traces of secondary (?) practices and the use of ochre. The accompanying tools also demonstrate a set typical for the Krasnoyarsk group: the bone fragments of needles and needle case, pendants made of musk deer canines, maral, split boar canines (Savel'ev, Timosh-chenko, Badmaev, 2011: 460-462). The comparative studies with other Neolithic burial complexes of the Northern Angara Region are almost impossible due to their small number and lack of cultural-chronological systemati-zation. The published materials indicate only single attributes, e.g. "funeral" fire (Zaika, 2009), various secondary funerary practices (Petrova and etc, 1976; Garkusha, Marchen-

References

ko, Grishin, 2013; Derevianko and etc, 2015: 510-511); inclusion of mineral dyes (Derevianko and etc, 2015: 510). Thus, a complete solution to the question on what the Northern Angara region's population contributed to the funerary traditions of the Late Neolithic, represented in the Krasnoyarsk region, is still impossible.

Conclusion

The Udachny-14 burial site shows similarities with a number of other well-known burials (burial № 5 and № 6 of the "Bor" urotshistshe, at the Gremyachy Ruchei and at the dachas of the GorONO), excavated in Krasnoyarsk and its outskirts and considered as a separate group. Basing on the 14C date and the analogies in the Late Neolithic burial traditions of Angara and Baikal regions, the age of these burials is preliminary identified as the Late Neolithic. They are characterized by: the location of grave pits mainly along the river, the presence of over- or near-grave fire, post-mortem manipulations with the body or bones, ochre traces, jewellery made of animal teeth, and also stone tools and bone pieces. A wide range of issues arising in terms of this burial group requires further research. In particular, the search for inter-regional analogies and models of cultural interaction in the western (with the territory of the Upper Ob') and the eastern (Kansk forest-steppe, the Angara-Baikal region) directions seems to be a priority task. However, now we can confidently assume their connection with the circle of funerary traditions of the late Neolithic of the Northern Angara region.

Аннотация. Статья посвящена анализу материалов неолитического погребения, обнаруженного на стоянке Удачный-14 в г. Красноярске. Скелет ребенка 9-10 лет располагался головой на юго-запад параллельно реке (против течения). Над могилой отмечен прокал, в котором обнаружена пяточная кость благородного оленя. Между черепом и костями таза зафиксированы два параллельно лежащих резца бобра, которые могли относиться к деталям одежды либо к украшению. Возле левых плюсневых костей найден кусок охры. Практически все кости ног захороненного индивида находились в анатомическом порядке и были вытянуты вдоль длинной оси захоронения. Кости туловища, плечевого пояса и головы были значительно перемещены. Расположение костей дает основание предполагать, что могила была потревожена через небольшой промежуток времени после похорон. Одонтологическое обследование останков показало сочетание в строении зубной системы «восточных» и «западных» признаков с преобладанием первых. Наибольшее одонтологическое сходство погребенного фиксируется с небольшой неолитической серией из Северного Приангарья, что частично коррелирует с археологическими данными. На основании полученной 14С даты и стратиграфического положения захоронение датировано поздним неолитом (конец IV тыс. до н.э.). Среди немногочисленных памятников региона оно находит аналогии в материалах некрополей из урочища «Бор» в устье р. Базаихи, у летних детских дач ГорОНО и Гремячего ручья. Для них характерны грунтовый характер погребений, расположение могильных ям преимущественно вдоль реки, посмертные манипуляции с телом умерших, наличие следов надмогильного или околомогильного костра, использование в качестве сопроводительного инвентаря украшений из зубов и костей животных.

Ключевые слова: Средний Енисей, Красноярский район, стоянка Удачный-14, поздний неолит, антропологическая характеристика, одонтологическое обследование, погребальный обряд, посмертные манипуляции с телом.
