The monograph presents a complete publication of excavations of the Middle Ages necropolis situated in the flat part of the Kuban river valley, in the Severski district of the Krasnodar region. The burial rite and burial goods found in the graves are described in detail, and their dating is established. All graves of the necropolis include inhumation burials, and dated to the 13-14 centuries AD. The grave assemblages testify to wide connections with both the native population of the Northern Ciscaucasia and the steppe nomads of the time.
