THE PECULIARITIES OF AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT OF TROUBCHEVSK OPOLIE IN THE EARLY IRON AGE (ON MATERIALS OF THE HILLFORT LBISHE)
The problem of farming of the carriers of the Yukhnov archaeological culture is discussed based on the materials of the town of Lbische (Monastyrishe), investigated by V.Padin in the Trubchevsky district of the Bryansk region Russia (Middle Desna). The hillfort is located within the Trubchevsk opolie. The author identified fine artifacts, studied tools of labor, and carried out an analysis of the landscape in the area of the ancient settlement. The opinion on the combination in different landscapes of hoe, slash-and-burn and arable farming is confirmed. It is assumed that the main grain crop of the inhabitants of the settlement was millet.
