| Summary: | This article provides a description and drawings of a Catacomb grave discovered in 1970 in the Lower Dnieper region, as they are presented in a field report. The grave contained a wooden wagon of a unique preservation but poorly made excavations and their recording have raised many questions; some of them the author discusses here. Meanwhile, a significant number of wooden fragments from the wagon are still preserved in storage at the Dnipropetrovsk National History Museum. Despite the fact that the fragments are not labeled and their initial location is unknown, their publication, when compared with documented details of other wagon constructions, could help with their identification in the future. |
