Grounds for Designating the Late Neolithic Bas'ianovo Archeological Complex

The article discusses characteristics of the Bas'ianovo archeological complex from the Late Neolithic Age, discovered in Middle Transuralia [Zaural'e]. It is dated to the first half of the fourth millennium BCE and is genetically connected with the Transuralian Boborykino culture. It is premature to establish whether the Bas'ianovo archeological complex is a new archeological culture or a local variant of the Boborykino culture (province, community). It is more productive to research the issue of Boborykino archeological-cultural and historical-cultural unity (and differences) through the prism of linguistic continuity, which is familiar from ethnographic materials—above all those of the aborigines of Australia and New Guinea. This may be designated as archeological continuity.
