Grave 1196 with a child’s burial of the first half of the 2nd century AD was examined on the territory of the Late Scythian Ust’-Alma necropolis (Crimea) in 2019. In this grave, along with red-slip pottery, beads and items of utilitarian purpose, there were objects thought to be amulets. Among them, details of Roman bronze inkwells were found, similar to those that were widely distributed in the territory of the Roman Empire in the last third of the 1st — first half of the 2nd century AD. Earlier, another object was found in the Ust’-Alma necropolis, which could also be a part of an inkwell. It is possible that these items got into the graves in the form of individual parts turned into pendants.
