Abstract

The paper gives a description of the landscapes formed in the Upper and Middle Kama basin in the Holocene. First of all, we talk about the first river terraces and the most ancient floodplain generations. In the Upper and Middle Kama basin, 78 Neolithic sites are known. During the mapping of the study area, 4 micro regions were identified with a large concentration of Neolithic settlements and territories with no Neolithic sites are known. The first group includes: the old-channel formation of the Chashkinskoye Lake, the Berezovaya River and the Chusovsky Lake District, the old-channel formation of the Khomutovskoe Lake and surroundings of Perm. The second one is the Upper Kama in the Gainsky and Kosinsky District s of the Perm Region and middle flows of the Chusovaya and Sylva rivers. The analysis of Neolithic sites locations showed that there is a dependence on the first formed terraces and the most ancient floodplains of large water arteries. Actually the most of the sites were located on its tributaries rather than on the upper Kama river.

Summary

Introduction

В бассейне Верхней и Средней Камы известно 78 неолитических памятников. В ходе картографирования района исследований было выделено 4 участка с большой концентрацией неолитических памятников и участки, где неолитические стоянки не известны. Анализ мест расположения неолитических памятников показал наличие зависимости от сформировавшихся первых террас и наиболее древних пойм крупных водных артерий. Что в бассейне Верхней Камы неолитические памятники располагались не на самой Каме, а на ее притоках. В районе исследования сейчас известно 78 неолитических памятников [5–7].
