Summary/Abstract: The author examines items ornamented in Scythian-Siberian anymal style, which were found in cemeteries, located in the delta of the Syr-Darya and Amu-Darya, dated by late 8th — 5th centuries BC. Cemeteries Uygarak and North Tagisken were excavated in the Lower Syr Darya littoral. Cemetery Sakar-Chaga were investigated in Trans-Sarykamysh delta of Amu-Darya. They belong to the general culture of the Saka type, but represent local ethnogenesis and chronological specificity that, in particular, is reflected in the subjects of the animal style.
