Problems of the chronology of the great Ryzhanovka kurgan

41-46

At the end of the 19th century a richly equipped (nearly 500 gold and silver artefacts) burial of a young woman was discovered in a great kurgan at Ryzhanovka in Ukraine (150 km south of Kiev). In literature it has been dated so far to 330-300 BC. In 1996 under the central part of the same kurgan a Polish-Ukrainian expedition discovered the main intact burial of a man. The grave contained nearly 600 various objects (including 150 items made of gold and silver). From the stratigraphical point of view it is only a little older than the female "side" burial which was explored in the 19th century. According to recent investigations both burials are dated using archaeological methods to the first quarter of the third century BC. This dating may be in fact later still. This is indicated by the results of radiocarbon analysis which yielded, among other, a reliable date of 270 š12 BC for the central (male) grave.
