PLOVDAG NECROPOLISES’ FUNERAL RITE

Abstract

Excavations at the site of Plovdag began in 1986. Thirty-two Bronze Age burial mounds and a part of the settlement were examined in the three years. Excavations that restarted at the northern slope of mountain, after a long pause, in 2004, revealed a second necropolis covering an area of around 5 hectares. An Early Bronze settlement was discovered in the central part of necropolis under Middle and Late Bronze burial mounds. On the second necropolis, there were examined 72 burials of different types investigated on the second necropolis. They are largely burial mounds with a stone box or graves. Large, richly decorated burial mounds are equipped with “altars”, i.e. burial chambers with a set of vessel. A constant burial rite had been observed from the end of the 4th millennium to the middle of the 2nd millennium BC in the Plovdag second necropolis. Radical changes in the funeral rite occurred in the second half of the 2nd millennium BC following the appearance of the so-called tiled graves. In terms of their construction and finds, these graves were quite different from burial mounds. In 2012, third necropolis discovered in Plovdag which dates back to the Early and Late Bronze Age. On the third necropolis, a grave with 16 “altars” with an illustration of the cult of ancestors among ancient tribes of Nakhichevan were excavated
