Description
Summary:Objective: The purpose of the study is to reconstruct the natural and anthropogenic processes that took place on the territory of the Yamgort I settlement in the conditions of the North of Western Siberia. Methods and Materials: A study of the stratigraphic structure and geoarchaeology of the multilayer Yamgort I settlement located on the right bank of the Synya River in the northern part of Western Siberia is conducted. Results: It is established that humans lived on the territory of the settlement during the Eneolithic, the Late Bronze Age, and the Early Middle Ages. A consistent description of the geological horizons and cultural layers is given, and the genesis of the deposits composing the settlement is explored. Conclusion: The specificity of the structure comes from the alternation of different-age generations corresponding to the stages of change in natural conditions. Traces of stable soil formation are preserved in the places of formation of cultural layers. The identified soils of the settlement are a rare sample of northern subarctic paleo-urban soils that meet the criteria for inclusion of the object in the Red List of Soils of Russia.
