Kurgan studies : an environmental and archaeological multiproxy study of burial mounds in the Eurasian steppe zone
Bok av Attila Barczi
Kurgans are the burial mounds of Bronze and Copper Age societies that can be traced back to the 4th Millennium cal BC. The Kurgans of the Eurasian steppe zone preserve palaeosoils and represent a fantastic resource for investigating Holocene environmental changes. The studies presented in this volume principally focus on the Lyukas-halom and Csipo"-halom kurgans in Hungary and the Skvortsovsky and Labazovsky kurgans in Russia, though there are also several papers that explore the wider world of the Kurgans. The majority focus on environmental themes.
