Summary/Abstract: In the article, the materials of the two Middle Bronze Age standings newly discovered during excavations of an early Scythian settlement near the village of Dolinyany, are analyzed for the first time. Basing on some peculiar features of the collected here ceramic fragments, the author dates them as belonging to the two different archaeological cultures: KMK and komarovskaya. She also tries to define some cultural and chronological groups of the flint tools from these standings. Speaking about the alien origin of KMK and the autochtonous one of komarovskaya culture, the author raises a question about the relative age of these standings, and the ways of spreading of KMK from the east over the Dniester. Due to the small number of the findings, these questions are still unanswered.
