description | The author evaluates a prominent Russian archaeologist T.B. Nikitina’s contribution to the study of the Middle Ages composite belts on the occasion of her jubilee. Belts, found at the burial sites of the Vetluga–Vyatka interfluve, are characterized by unique preservation of belts, which allowed not only studying separate elements of these composite belts, but also to see what they are made of, design and manners of use as articles of clothing. Based on materials from the Rozhdestvensk burial site in the Perm Krai the classification developed by T.B. Nikitina was tested. Research results revealed that the classification is quite universal and is applicable to analysis of belts, discovered in different areas. Belts of one and one and a half turns around the waist have been found at the Rozhdestvensk burial site. Some of them are completely identical to ones found in the Vetluga–Vyatka interfluve by their composition, and it may be assumed that they came from the same centre. There are also belts similar in general, but have, for example, not one but two main types of onlays, and there are local belts that include onlays characteristic mainly of the Perm Cis-Urals. Belts going twice around the waist are characteristic strictly for the culture of the people in the Vetluga–Vyatka interfluves. Such studies give broader opportunities to using discovered belt details as an archaeological source. |
