Abstract
The paper introduces the Late Mesolithic complex of the Kochkari I site (Krasny Yar District, Samara Region) and discusses evidence obtained with science methods. The authors outline the site location and the history of its study. The stratigraphy of the site and the results of palynological analysis of the cultural layer are described. The article features detailed information about the inventory categories with an emphasis on the tool complex. Based on radiocarbon dating, the chronological framework of the Kochkari I site functioning was established. The typological analysis of the flint complex and absolute age data made it possible to determine the place of the site within the system of region’s Mesolithic antiquities. The authors consider the issue of correlation between Late Mesolithic and Early Neolithic complexes of the forest-steppe Volga region.
