Abstract
The article presents the results of archaeological research of excavation No 2 at the cult site Toropovo-7A and the single Okunevo-5 mound in the Kuznetsk basin. The fact of repeated use of the soil pit for ritual actions related to the ancestor’s cult and the tradition of remembering the deceased was recorded. When comparing with similar structures, it is concluded that this tradition is characteristic of the population of Kuznetsk Prisalarya in the developed and late Middle Ages. The revealed structural features of the excavated mound and archaeological objects found are described. By analogies, the funeral monument is previously dated to the Mongolian time and assigned to the Shandinian archaeological culture.
