| Popis: | The article considers the chronology issues of two cultural traditions in the Southern Trans-Ural Bronze Age that poorly provided with radiocarbon dates. Stratigraphy and a set of artifacts (mainly ceramics) made it possible to reveal two stages in the history of the Konoplyanka 2 settlement (Srubnaya–Alakul and Cherkaskul). A series of thirteen samples includes one statistical hearth refuse, nine Srubnaya–Alakul and three Cherkaskul dates. Using the methods of Bayesian statistics, a two-phase chronological model was created, the chronology of the stages was determined and the duration for each of them was established. Srubnaya–Alakul phase falls on the XVIII century calBC (medians of boundary intervals), Cherkaskul phase fits to the XVII–XVI centuries calBC. The chronological gap between the phases is more than half a century. The new data correlate well with the regional periodization system. Srubnaya–Alakul dates belong to the post-Sintashta period, and Cherkaskul ones precede the Mezhovka–Sargary period. However, Cherkaskul series of AMS dates entirely refers to the steppe part of the culture area, so the conclusions cannot be extrapolated to other regions; therefore, the question of the origin of this culture remains open. |
