Serovo culture

Japanese: セロボ文化 - セロボぶんか(英語表記)Serovo culture
Serovo culture
A Neolithic culture in the Baikal region of Russia. It is dated to the 3rd millennium BC. Many burial tombs from this culture have been discovered, including 18 sites in the Angara River basin between Irkutsk and Bratsk, and typical Serovo-style tombs are also found in the upper Lena River basin and the Selenga River basin on the eastern shore of Lake Baikal. Similar tombs have been found in the Angara River basin and the middle and lower Lena Rivers. After the body is buried in the pit, horizontal slabs of stone are laid out and stones are filled in up to the surface. Almost all are extended burials, and the majority of the heads face east or northeast. Most are individual graves. Grave goods include hunting equipment, fishing equipment, eating utensils, and tool-making tools, and it is believed that there was a belief in life after death. There are also two cases of cremation. A typical Cerobo tomb contains bows and arrows, pottery, polished slate or jade stone axes, polished slate knives, and stone arrowheads or diamond knives. The grave goods are the same for both men and women.
