The article deals with the results of the distribution of the anthropological materials, namely bones of postcranial skeleton. Due to the great amount of material, the cranial part of the collection will be analyzed separately. In the process of cataloging of the bone material kept at the depository of the Kalmyk Scientific Center of the RAS, there is the need for paying a special attention to the distribution of the existing anthropological materials into different mound groups, which were located in different landscape-geographical zones of the Republic of Kalmykia. The special attention was given to the representation of the anthropological unit (which exactly skeleton bones) and also the integrity of the bone tissue. This criterion is important for the evaluation of the influence of soil characteristics on the integrity of the mineral and organic parts of the bones. The cultural-chronological belonging of the anthropological material in question is given in a general way on the basis of field studies reports.
