Sarmatian phalerae.
Valentina Mordvinceva
Hardcover
114 Phalerae from 46 complexes of the Early and Middle Sarmatian Culture of the Eurasian steppes were investigated, dating from ca. 300 B.C. to A.D. 150. Criteria of the analysis were changes in the composition and the motifs of the harnesses. Six stylistic groups were defined [1: Ionic, 2: Bosporanian, 3: Graeco-Bactrian, 4: graphic style Black Sea region, 5: polychrome-zoomorphic, 6: zoomorphic style northern Black Sea Region]. They belong to two periods, namely groups 1-4 to Hellenistic [3rd to 1st century B.C.] and 5-6 to Early Roman times [1st to mid 2nd century]. According to their fastening shoulder, breast and bridle phalerae are distinguished, each of which occur in several modes of fastening. Also, three sets of harness elements are reconstructed which have a different distribution in time and space [set I: region of Kuban and lower river Don, east of the river Don, Hellenistic period; II: North-Pontic steppes, west of the river Don, 2nd to 1st century B.C.; III: region of the rivers Volga and Don, lower river Don, end of 1st to 3rd century A.D.]. The place of deposition of the phalerae changed from the grave into the upper layers of the tumulus and back into the grave again.
