Abstract
Abstract: the article deals with the finds of chain mail artifacts from two military graves of the early medieval Sadon burial ground of the Alanian culture. According to similar items from the Lombard military burials of the Castel Trosino burial ground in Italy, samples from Sadon are presumably interpreted as gloves designed to protect the hand in combat conditions. Fragments of leather preserved on mail items from the Sadon may be remnants of products in the form of mittens or gloves; a rectangular piece of chain mail mesh was sewn to them from the back to protect the hand.

Summary
Из воинских погребений раннего средневековья иногда происходят небольшие фрагменты кольчуг или кольчужные секции. По аналогии с предметами из статусных воинских погребений лангобардов могильника Кастель-Трозино в Италии, находки из Садона, предположительно, интерпретируются как перчатки, предназначенные для защиты кисти руки в боевых условиях. На тыльной стороне кольчужной сетки из катакомбы 68 сохранились фрагменты кожаных ремешков, на ладонной – фрагменты от большого куска выделанной кожи
