POTTERY FROM THE SOUTH KURGAN.

MIDDLE STRATA, CULTURE III.

The South Kurgan was investigated on a different plan from that pursued

The middle strata extends from a horizontal line drawn between +40 feet and
+37 feet downward to the level of +18 feet, to which terraces B and C were sunk.
As already remarked, in these deposits of not less than 20 feet thickness, similar
objects were found; therefore they belong to one and the same culture epoch,
