Статтю присвячено металевим ножам доби
 бронзи, знайденим неподалік від відомої петрографічної та археологічної пам’ятки «Кам’яна Могила» у Запорізької області та їхнім аналогіям у похованнях ямної, катакомбної та зрубної культур. Metal (copper and bronze) knives is one of the most
 striking categories of artefacts in the materials of
 the Black Sea cultures of the Early, Middle and Late
 Bronze Age. In addition to introducing new archaeological
 evidences to scientific community, the paper aims
 to analyze the place of a representative series of knives
 (8 items) from the vicinity of Kamyana Mohyla (Zaporizhzhya
 region) in the cultural and chronological coordinate
 system of the southern part of Eastern Europe
 Bronze Age. Three knives came from the Yamna culture
 burials. The one with an oval blade of the Zarechnoe
 type (kurgan 1, burial 8) is similar to those used on the
 vast area from the North-Western Black Sea region to
 the North Caucasus. Knives from Novopilipovka (kurgan
 6, burial 5) and Semenovka (kurgan 2, burial 1) introduce
 some local features and were probably produced
 by the local metalworking center. Four other knives are
 related to the Catacomb culture. The one with a sub-triangular
 blade and an accented handle from Zarechnoe
 (kurgan 7, burial 1) belongs to the artefacts that occure
 rarely during the Catacomb time, but was common for
 the Yamnaya culture in Crimea and in the Dnieper region.
 Other types of artefacts do not meet the analogies
 in Yamnaya culture burials. Knives with a leaf-shaped
 short blade and maximum widening in their upper part
 (Zarechnoe, kurgan 17, burial 4) are usually attributed
 to the Catacomb culture of the Seversky Donets basin
 and to the east of the Don river. Knives of the Kamyana
 Mohyla 5 type with a leaf-shaped blade and a long
 handle are also usually found at the Catacomb sites of
 the Seversky Donets basin. Knives of the Sekiz 3 type
 with a long handle and a short sub-rhombic blade originated
 in the Catacomb culture and the final Novotitorovka
 group. They are localized in the eastern regions
 (the Don basin, the Lower Volga, and the North Caucasus).
 A knife from the Terpinnya site is associated with
 the monuments of the second period of the Berezhno-
 Mayevskaya Srubnaya culture and is similar to the
 finds coming from the archaeological sites in the steppe
 Dnieper region and Azov Sea region in the second half of
 the second millennium BC. The large number of metal
 knives found in the studied area during the Bronze Age,
 which originate both from burials and settlements was
 probably related to the use of Kamyana Mohyla Hill as
 a ritual place.
