Summary/Abstract: The article presents the results of a technical and typological analysis of the stone industry of Gora Glinyanaya site. This locality belongs to the group of sites of the “Angara mountains” — open-air complexes confined to the high surface of the Lena-Angara watershed in the south of Central Siberia. Based on the materials of the complex, the “Olonskii Paleolithic stratum” was identified, which is dated back to about 200 thousand BP and can be correlated with the Acheulean-Mousterian technocomplex of the transitional Early-Middle Paleolithic period. The authors clarify the type list, identify and describe some new morphotypes, and refute the thesis about the presence of the Levallois component in the complex. Based on the technical and typological analysis, it is proposed to correlate the industry with the materials of the lower layers of the East Chamber of Denisova Cave.
