The Characteristic of Stone Tools Industries of Layer 3 Ust''-Kutarey Site in North Angara Region
During the large-scale archaeological works in 2010-2011 connected with renewal of Boguchany hydroelectric power station construction in the territory of North Angara region sites in Kutarey river were investigated. This work contains detailed analyses of stone tools of layer 3 Ust'-Kutarey site. The horizon 1 is more saturated of stone tools forms as retouching bladelets, points, oval bifaces, massive forms as polished adzes, fassonaged axes, bits. While in horizon 2 these forms aren't almost presented. In general, stone industry of layer 3 have characteristic of Neolithic - Bronze age of North Angara region. Taking into account the stratigraphic situation (layers with “compression” character, technogenic interruption) it is too early to make more detailed conclusions about cultural and chronological interpretation of this materials. In this situation it seems perspective to investigate ceramic complexes, planigrapfic situation, and to compare this materials with other Ust'-Kutarey microregion sites and adjacent territories.
