Abstract
In the vicinity of Yampil (Vinnytsia oblast, Ukraine), there exists a cluster of barrows dating back to the Eneolithic and Early Bronze Age. Nestled upon the Podillia Upland, this concentration lies at the crossroads of two cultural spheres: the Eastern European steppe and Central European. The exploration of the Yampil barrows began during the 1980s by archaeologists from Vinnytsia. This endeavor was enriched by a Polish-Ukrainian expedition that conducted fieldwork from 2010 to 2014. Seven barrows were then examined. Today, an abundance of radiocarbon data empowers us to construct a precise chronological framework for the Yampil barrow graves. We can now discern four principal stages in this sequence: (1) late Eneolithic, (2) early Yamna, (3) late Yamna era, and (4) Catacombna. During the first two periods (3350-2800 calBC), these barrows were meticulously constructed, sometimes evolving in multiple phases. In the latter two stages (2800-2400 calBC), cemeteries took shape, marked by graves thoughtfully dug into the fully formed mounds.
