Summary/Abstract: At the end of the 19th century, in a large Scythian necropolis near the village of Volkovtsy, located in the upper reaches of the Sula River, S. A. Mazaraki investigated a burial mound with a cremation burial. Two wire fibulae with “eights” and a spiral gold ring were found in the burial. Analogies come from Late Scythian, ancient and Zarubintsy antiquities. The in situ cremation rite in the barrow allows its interpretation as belonging to the Sarmatian-Zarubintsy group of burials (after M. B. Shchukin)
