Abstract
New excavations of a burial mound 1 at Filippovka-1, southern Urals, indicate an ancient reconstruction of its eastern part. A large trench was dug shortly after the mound had been erected, and its northern end was connected with the central grave by an underground passage. At the entrance, a cast bronze cauldron, 95Â cm high and 1 m in diameter, was placed. At the southern end of the trench, level with the bottom of it, a grave overlaid with wooden planks was discovered. The grave revealed an extremely rich female burial, dating to the 4th century BC and thus contemporaneous with the central burial in the mound.
