Abstract

In 2009 a great funeral complex Uelgi was discovered between the lakes Uelgi
and Saigyrly in 50 km to the north from Chelyabinsk. During the surveying season
2010—2011 the burial mounds No. 1, 2, 3, 7 and 8 (21 funerals) were investigated.
The new materials obtained from Uelgi and Sineglazovo burial grounds allow
suggesting that approximately three hundred years after its formation (the end of
IX century) nomadic complexes of the late Kushnarenkovsky-Karayakupovsky
layout like Sineglazovo, Uelgi, Lagarevo, Karanayevo, and others appeared deep
in the forest-steppe area of South Ural bearing bright nomad cultural com-plex
of syncretic character, which also included elements of Central and Eastern Kazakhstan,
Altai layouts, along with certain features typical for western nomadic
complexes of Povolzhye, Podneprovye and Podunavye.
