Abstract

The appeal to the study of plate complexes of the Jewish Autonomous region is due to a number of circumstances. The main ones are: the small number of registered Neolithic settlements in the region, the lack of complete data on the middle Neolithic cultures of the region (which creates a kind of information vacuum between the cultures of the Middle and Lower Amur), the obscurity of connections and vectors of cultural influences of ancient communities, and others.
