Monuments with Early Neolithic Combed Ware from the Southeastern Lake Onega Region by Marina V. Ivanishcheva, Natalya V. Kosorukova

“…At sites, studied on a wide area, radiocarbon determinations were obtained for this group of ceramics, and the composition of the pottery paste was studied. The abundance of material obtained at these sites and its dating by natural science methods make it possible to clarify the chronological position of pottery assemblages of other sites, previously not distinguished from the general array of Neolithic ware and to fill archaeological gaps on the map of Early Neolithic antiquities with factual material. …”
