Glass in Ancient and Medieval Eastern Europe As Evidence of International Contacts
Archeologia Polski 61 (2016), pp. 191-212 Archeologia Polski, LXI: 2016 PL ISSN 0003-8180 Ekaterina STOLYAROVA GLASS IN ANCIENT AND MEDIEVAL EASTERN EUROPE AS EVIDENCE OF INTERNATIONAL CONTACTS Abstract: This paper deals with glass artifacts as markers of interregional economic, religious and cultural links, trade routes, and social stratification. It is focused on finds from Eastern Europe from the Bronze Age to the 17th–18th centuries A.D. Keywords: glass beads, glass vessels, Eastern Europe, international links. Introduction Glass is one of the most ancient artificial materials possessing unique properties from which a variety of artifacts can be made. Among these are luxury artifacts and objects of applied art, tesserae for figured mosaics and stained glass, glass icons and ritual vessels, window-panes and tableware as well as small ornaments, i.e., arm rings, beads, fingerings, buttons and pendants. These artifacts were used in daily life, sold, donated, used to decorate clothes, interiors and architectural structures. They were symbols of their owner’s social and economic position. The value of glass as a historical source stems from its extensive application. Glass objects provide information on the formation and spread of glassmaking and on the place of glass in scientific concepts and the production of a given epoch. Chemical properties of glass and means of its production are of technological interest. Glass artifacts are important for the study of culture and daily life of a given epoch, e.g. the history of costume. Excavated glass objects are examined from the angle of their functions, peculiarities of their form and decoration, the spread and evolution of different type.

Mikhail Zhilin EARLY MESOLITHIC BONE ARROWHEADS from the VOLGA-OKA INTERFLUVE, CENTRAL RUSSIA
Fennoscandia archaeologica XXXII (2015) Mikhail Zhilin EARLY MESOLITHIC BONE ARROWHEADS FROM THE VOLGA-OKA INTERFLUVE, CENTRAL RUSSIA Abstract Several different types of bone arrowheads were produced and used during the Early Mesolithic in the Volga-Oka interfluve. In this paper, recent research on these artefacts is reviewed, and their means of manufacture and ways of use determined through microscopy and experimental research. The research highlights the skill of the Early Mesolithic inhabitants of the Volga-Oka interfluve in manufacturing bone arrowheads, used for hunting various animals. A similarity was observed between the flint industry of pre-boreal sites of the Volga-Oka region and those of southern Finland, especially with respect to tanged flint arrowheads. The similarity suggests that the Early Mesolithic population of southern Finland and Karelian Isthmus most probably produced and used bone arrowheads similar to those described in the article. However, because bone artefacts are generally missing in the latter regions because of acrid soils, the conclusion should be regarded as a working hypothesis.

Early Mesolithic Barbed Bone Points in the Volga-Oka Interfluve
D. Groß/H. Lübke/J. Meadows/D. Jantzen (eds.): From Bone and Antler to Early Mesolithic Life in Northern Europe. Untersuchungen und Materialien zur Steinzeit in Schleswig-Holstein und im Ostseeraum 10 (Kiel / Hamburg 2019). ISBN 978-3-529-01861-9. Early Mesolithic barbed bone points in the Volga-Oka interfluve Mikhail G. Zhilin Abstract Complex research on various barbed points from early Mesolithic sites in the Volga-Oka interfluve showed that they were the heads of different categories of hunting weapons, mostly projectiles. Analyses of their shape, size and use-wear traces made it possible to single out arrowheads, javelin or leister points, throwing and thrusting spearheads and harpoons. The earliest of them emerge in the first half of the Preboreal period, but the full flou- rishing of various categories of barbed weapons is observed during the late Preboreal to early Boreal periods and later. Some types and variants are numerous and have a long history, while others are represented only by single finds. The former represent more or less standard mass products, while the latter can be treated as experimental artefacts which played no significant role. Together with other types of bone and antler hunting weapons barbed projectile points played an important role in subsistence strategies of the Early Mesolithic po- pulation of the Volga-Oka interfluve and their adaptation to the forest environment during the early Holocene. 1 Introduction Among a range of Mesolithic bone and antler artefacts various points occupy a prominent place. They were used in different ways, but the majority of them was connected with hunting and fishing.

Sailing Through Russian History: Down the Volga and the Don September 12-25 (14 Days, 13 Nights) Join the Albuquerque International Association on a Unique Journey
Sailing through Russian History: Down the Volga and the Don September 12-25 (14 days, 13 nights) Join the Albuquerque International Association on a unique Journey. The Volga and Don Rivers are to Russia what the Mississippi, Missouri and Ohio Rivers are to the United States -- great waterways that course through the nation's heartland at the pivot of its history. Along their banks tumultuous events have unfolded: Russia's struggle against the Mongol Khans that opened the gateway to the East, fierce peasant rebellions led by the famous Stenka Razin and Emilian Pugachev, and the battle of Stalingrad that determined the fate of the world. The cities you will visit -- Uglich, Nizhnyi Novgorod, Kazan, Ulyanovsk, Samara, Saratov and Volgograd -- each with their own unique histories, are the birthplaces of many of Russia's cultural and political leaders and are rich in architectural, artistic, commercial and scientific achievements. Beginning with three exciting days in Moscow, you will cruise in comfort down Mother Volga and the Quiet Don, gaining as never before remarkable insights into Russia's past and, perhaps, a glimpse of her future as well. Tour Highlights: Three unforgettable days in Moscow, the present, as well as the ancient capital of Russia Founded in 1148, Uglich witnessed the end of the Rurik Dynasty, a crucial turning point in Russian history at the end of the 16th century. Maria Nagaya, the seventh wife of Ivan the Terrible, lived in exile in Uglich with her son Tsarevich Dmitry, a possible successor to the Russian throne. But in 1590 he was killed or “died by accident” there.

Large paleochannels are widespread in the surroundings of Lake Nero, they are larger than modern ones. Their presence indicates an increased river run-off in the past and a likely impact on changes in lake level. The study of paleochannels was carried out using hydro-morphological analysis and drilling cores. The results showed that their sizes are to 1.5–3 times larger than modern analogues. At the time of their formation, river discharges exceeded recent ones, the lake was in regression. The paleochannels north of the Rostov belong to the Ustye paleoriver, which had previously flowed into the Nero with a level below 91 m a.s.l. Further study of the river paleochannels will help to better understand the reasons for the change of Nero Lake level. Keywords: Nero Lake, large paleochannels, Late Pleistocene — Holocene. 1.
