kurgans, ritual sites, and settlements : eurasian bronze and iron age • Oxford • Published In 2000 • Pages: 118-125

By: Kuzámina, Elena.

Abstract
Kuzmina disagrees with Telegin (eHRAF documents # 31, 34, and 35). She states horses were used only for food in the Sredny Stog (Srednii Stog) culture and not ridden by warriors or used in warfare at that time. She also believes that what Telegin identified as early bridle cheekpieces were probably tools used in making fishing nets. Only the material pertaining to the Chalcolithic Period of Southeastern Europe was indexed for Outline of Cultural Materials (OCM) codes.
