Abstract
The article presents the results of analyzing characteristics of burying mammoth fauna animal remains. The finds coordinates were linked to the engineering-geological map of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) (1:1 500 000). Extensive literary data describing the burials taphonomy are taken into account. It has been found that most of the finds were buried in deposits of small fractions (loess-like loams, sandy loams, sands) characteristic for the edoma (ice complex) providing the unique preservation for bone and soft tissues of animals.
