Data on thesefinds were repeatedly published. However results of the X-ray fluorescent analysis and total characteristics ofbronze products are introduced for the first time. Obtained data allows to carry out cultural and chronologicalattribution of one of objects from the settlement where subjects of arms dated by Arzhan-Mayemir time (theend of IX – 2–3 quarter of the VI centuries BC) were recorded.
