A Morphological Analysis of Vessels from Middle Bronze AGE (Early 2nd Millennium BC) Burials at Vengerovo, in the Irtysh Forest-steppe1

This study is based on measurements of 271 vessels from Tartas-1 and 51 vessels from Stary Tartas-4, Vengerovo Region, Novosibirsk Province. The distribution of types and categories of vessels in these two assemblages is similar, and both include “imitations.” While the morphology of vessels is generally uniform, variation is greater in Tartas-1.
