К вопросу о средневековом земледелии (по материалам Верхнесалтовского археологического комплекса)
According to the questions about medieval agriculture (based on the materials of Verkhnesaltovo archaeological complex)

Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to the problems of agriculture of the Early Middle Ages, which are examined at the example of the archaeological complex in Verhniy Saltov villages. Archaeological and palaeobotanical materials which have been examined show us high level of agriculture in Khazar State. It is confirmed by dig range of qualitative tools and by the list of agricultural forms such as cereals, crops and so on. Palaeoethnobotanical composition in Verhniy Saltov gives us an opportunity to formulate the question about the role of agriculture, in particular cereals in different natural and climatic zones of the Saltovo-Mayatsk culture Analyzed materials confirm the opinion about outstripping development of ploughing of Saltov population by comparison with neighbouring tribes of the Slaves.
