Abstract

The paper continues the articles presented in 2017 and 2021 (Ivanov, Protsenko, 2017; Ivanov, 2021). This study differs from the previous ones in that the author supplemented the source base with the materials of the Akhmylovo/Akozino and Khudyaki cultures. That is, in his comparative statistical analysis, he used almost all known material on the burial rite of the Kama River region and Cis-Ural cultures of the Early Iron Age: the Akhmylovo/Akozino, Ananyino "classical", Pyany Bor, Kara-Abyz and Khudyaki. In the course of the work, author have received the results, that allow him to draw the following conclusion: Although the Ahmylovo/Akozino and "Classical Ananyino" (Ananyino culture of corded ware – ACCW) were a part of a single Ananyino cultural-historical community (ACIO), they differed by types of pottery and set of the burial equipment; the Ahmylovo/Akozino culture ("Volga Ananyino population") was not involved in forming the ethnic-cultural composition of the Kama River Region and Cis-Ural population of the second half of the 1st millennium BC; the Kara-Abyz and Pyany Bor cultures, although they were formed with the participation of ACCW bearers, but in their ethnic genesis no less active role was played by the alien ethnic-cultural component. In their morphological features, these cultures were different and it is wrong to consider the Kara-Abyz culture as a variant of the Pyany Bor one.
