Description
Summary:In this paper, the reconstruction of catacombs (ground tombs) building process of the Alanic population of Saltiv-Maiaky culture is proposed. For this purpose the statistic analysis of dimensional characteristics of 226 catacombs on the territory of Verkhnii-Saltiv burial ground was made. The data for the average volume of the ground dug out during the building of  catacombs for burying a child and one or several adults , was obtained and the time required for the this was calculated. The calculations showed that the building of catacomb for a child burial (from 0,9 to 1,5 m3) could take ca. 10—12 working hours for one adult man. To build the biggest catacomb (up to 14 m3) it takes 3—5 working days for 3—4 men.
