Reconstructing Some Elements of Adornment Spread in the North Black Sea Region During the Scythian Era

The article discusses the selection and analysis of burial sites from the 5th—3rd centuries BC. These sites contain rings with single knobs or rosette-shaped knobs with 2—5 convexities, which are found in situ, providing insights into their possible use. Typically, these rings were found as part of a set of jewelry such as necklaces or bracelets. The study also examined sites where objects, possibly part of the same set as the rings, were discovered next to these rings. These jewelry sets could also include absolutely different elements, such as other rings, beads from various materials, strings of beads, lithics, various pendants, shells, etc. The article proposes options for reconstructing necklaces and bracelets from these discovered complexes.
