Abstract

The ungulate fauna present in Mesolithic, Neolithic, and Eneolithic Age sites of the Pechora and Vychegda Basins were considerable. These sites differed in archaeological culture and in the type of settlement they represented. Established sites included summer and winter camps, permanent settlements, and temporary campsites. In spite of many changes in natural conditions, moose (Alces alces) were utilized consistently throughout the early and middle Holocene. The significance of this trend for the economy was that it affected the ideology of the human population.
