Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the impressions of serrated ornaments on the vessels of the Andronovo (Fedorovo) culture Chekanovsky Log-2. The aim of the study is to analyze the impressions of serrated ornaments and to identify products ornamented by the same (or similar) tools, which could be made by the same master or a group of related masters. Out of 49 analyzed items, 26 were ornamented with serrated tools. All impressions were divided into two groups: coarse-toothed (2.5 mm and more) and fine-toothed (1 mm and more), and six subgroups. The subgroups united vessels belonging to fragments of the same product, and also dishes characterizing technological traditions of manufacture of tools of different masters, apparently belonging to one close in cultural (or chronological) relation to the population. The correlation between the size of the teeth and their number has been revealed. The larger the size of the teeth, the greater the length of the working surface and the smaller the number of teeth. The atypical impressions of the serrated ornaments were supplemented by the non-standard ornamental composition of the items. Vessels ornamented with coarse toothed stamp were mostly jar-shaped, had single-zone ornamentation and simple ornamental elements. Punctuated by fine-toothed stamps, the ornamented vessels were potted, which were decorated more with geometric motives with two or three zonal breakdown of the composition. In the burial area, these groups of vessels are fixed in both parts of the necropolis, however, for the southern (coastal) area, the vessels decorated mainly with a coarse-toothed stamp, and for the northern one, with a fine-toothed stamp are typical. This can be explained by the difference in the time of construction of these two parts of the necropolis.
