At present, the source database expansion on medieval archaeology of the Kazakh steppe
is among the priorities in science. Certain success was achieved in the study of sites of such medieval
states of the ancient Turkic Khaganates as Kimak, Oghuz, Ulug Ulus, and Kazakh Khaganate on the
territory of Kazakhstan.
At the same time, the lack of a comprehensive study of this era led to its occasional research. The
purpose of the article is to introduce early Middle Ages burial materials from the northern region of
Kazakhstan into scientific circulation. Turkic mound is located in the Kenotkel-Shagalaly archaeological
microdistrict.
The central burial belongs to the era of the early Iron Age, later the fence was added in the early
Middle Ages. Such peculiarities of the funeral rite as the eastern orientation, and the accompanying
horse burial indicate that burial belongs to the Turkic time.
Burial research and items as an earing, a fragment of a mirror and a spindle whorl found in the
burial site suggest that it was a grave of a woman. The dating object is an earring and the time of the
construction of this funerary structure was determined. That is the second half of the VIII-IX century.
