Summary/Abstract: The goal of the research was to identify cultural attribution of the Late Bronze Age Gordeevka cemetery located in the Vinnitsa region. The author analyzes such features as burial constructions, funerary rite, ceramic assemblage, and decorations as the most significant features of the site and compares them with the analogous attributes of the Komarov, the Trzciniec, and the Belogrudovskiy Les cultures of the Trzciniec cultural circle (ТCC). The author thus infers that the Gordeevka cemetery seemed to be an elite burial site of a particular Podole group of the Komarov culture within the ТCC. This group constituted the basis in genesis of the Belogrudovskiy Les culture, which in its turn reflects the stage of disintegration of the ТCC in the forest-steppe zone on the right bank of the Dnieper.
