Relativity and normativity as a challenge of subject- matter teaching and learning
Authors: Führer Carolin , Tesch Bernd , Balg Dominik , Grewe Bernd
Published: January 2023

In a plural and democratic society teaching challenges not only arise from the conditionality and perspectivity of knowledge, convictions and value systems, but also from a postfactual thinking. Questions of how to deal with one’s own subject-specific norms are sometimes pushed into the background in academic subject didactics. The article shows the potential of interdisciplinary comparison by using the example of classroom communication norms within different disciplines with strong subject cultures. An exchange regarding relativity and normativity could profile the subject-specificity of knowledge and knowledge communication as a necessary orientation against simplification and disambiguation for teachers and students in an uncertain world.
Geography teaching as part of combined courses across the social sciences: Analysing 50 years of coexistence in Germany.
Authors: Johann Florian , Brühne Thomas
Published: January 2023

Social sciences combined subjects are currently taught in 13 German federal states at different types of school and in recent years, the scientific discussion commenced about combined courses. There are both terminological inconsistencies and incoherence in the integration of the different disciplinary parts. This article examines the development of Geography as an independent school subject and as part of combined courses. With a qualitative analysis of all curricular reference documents of social sciences combined subjects, the integration structure and the importance of Geography were determined.
Meaning and Sense as the Bedrock of English Discourse Functional Space
Authors: Malakhova V. L.
Published: January 2023

The article is devoted to the analysis of correlation between the concepts ‘meaning’ and ‘sense’, peculiarities of their formation and their role in the process of developing integral functional space of discourse. The objective of the article is to determine how certain linguistic means create meanings, which factors contribute to their transformation into sense, what exactly provides representation and further interpretation of sense.Considering the essence of meaning, the author analyzes its types, specifies the extent of interaction and interdependence between them, determines the factors promoting transformation and modification of one type into another which clarifies what helps actualize meanings of different levels. The author singles out semantic, semantic-and-syntactic, logical-and-semantic, and pragmatic meanings as the principle meanings underlying formation of discourse integral sense. The analysis of discursive sense formation as a multi-level hierarchical system based on complex interaction and interdependence of meanings of different types makes this study relevant and topical.The study identifies optimal ways of sense creation and its adequate representation, of enhancing communication efficiency and achieving the communicative goal of a speech act. The author emphasizes the importance of the choice of linguistic means and the role of context in this process, the significant influence of linguistic and extra-linguistic factors; this directly impacts meanings formation, their transformation into sense which, in turn, forms the bedrock of discourse functional space.The study methodology combines elements of systems analysis, descriptive analysis, discourse analysis, pragmasemantic analysis, component analysis.The author comes to the conclusion that discourse sense space, being situationally conditioned, operates more with sense than meanings. The sense of discourse is not reducible to the sum of the meanings that form it. Meaning and sense are categories that are formed in the course and as a result of communicative activity and cognitive processes; therefore, the effectiveness of

Along with the high nutritional value, milk represents an excellent medium for the growth of certain microorganisms, some of which can be life threatening. Milk fat has been found to affect the survival of L. monocytogenes in milk. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of milk fat in the survival of L. monocytogenes in milk under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. Four compartments (saliva, gastric, small intestine and large intestine) mimicking the human physiological conditions were established to evaluate the viability of L. monocytogenes inoculated in milk. Given that milk is generally consumed as a breakfast meal, the evaluation was done in the fasted state of the gastrointestinal system. A decrease to 5 log10 CFU/ mL was determined in saliva compartment, in the evaluation after 48 h of cold storage. In the viable but not countable evaluation, L. monocytogenes counts were determined to be 8 log10 CFU/ mL for skim milk and semi-skim milk, and 9 log10 CFU/ mL for whole fat milk in the saliva compartment. Regardless the fat content, L. monocytogenes was not detected in any of the milk groups in the lower parts of the simulated gastrointestinal compartments.

Tef is the major staple food crop for Ethiopia which is cultivated by more than 6.7 million smallholder farmers. As an indigenous cereal, it is well adapted to diverse climatic and soil conditions; however, its productivity is very low mainly due to susceptibility to lodging. The objective of this study was to identify stable, high yielding and lodging tolerant tef genotypes for moisture stress areas of the country. A total of twenty genotypes including standard and local checks were tested. The field experiment was conducted using a 2m x 2m area with a completely randomized block design at six locations (Debre Zeit, Minjar, Alemtena, Melkassa, Sirinka and Axum) during the 2019 and 2020 main cropping seasons. Data were taken on plot and individual plant basis on eight pheno-agro-morphological characters including days to heading, days to maturity, grain filling period, plant height, panicle length, lodging index, above-ground shoot biomass and grain yield. The combined analysis of variance showed that the mean squares due to genotypes, locations and genotype interactions were highly significant (P<0.01) for the tested eight agronomical and morphological traits evaluated. Based on the current result, 39% of the tested genotypes had a higher yield advantage over the standard check Boset variety. On the other hand, 44% of the genotypes showed higher yields than the local check. Therefore, the promising genotype for lodging tolerance needs further testing in the variety verification trial and those genotypes are used as representative materials to develop varieties, especially for lodging tolerance.
Perception of multimodal objects in NLP through computer vision
Authors: Himel Sakib Hosen , Rana Mahidul Islam
Published: January 2023

This project is based on voice interaction and object detecting properties. It will allow the users to do voice interaction with the artificial intelligence and it will reply with the system voice. That is how users will use their voice to command as a trigger to find out the category of any object by showing it using the camera module. At first, the user will show an object with the help of a camera and ask for identifying it in the system. The object detection system then captures a frame from the camera and predicts through the structure to identify which class the object belongs to by extracting the feature from there. The process of this application is to search the database to match the structural data to find out the exact category of the object. When this system approximately matches with the information of a category then the application will suggest the category for the object by mentioning the category name through voice. This application can also give some basic information by asking for it. Our general-purpose approach can be effective in interpreting the structure and properties of objects in different networks through natural language processing.

Published: January 2023

Este artigo analisa as ideias do projeto do PMDB de “transição moderada”, com o objetivo de entender por que a elite política conservadora que liderou a transição democrática aceitou uma agenda de direitos sociais. Argumento que o apelo dessa ideia se deve à percepção de que a desigualdade social ameaçaria a estabilidade da nova ordem. Mostro, ainda, que esse mesmo sentido esteve presente na fundação do PSDB.
Structural and functional space of social management practices in the management system of social work
Authors: Popovych Vasyl , Novak Tetiana
Published: January 2023

The article defines the dimensions of the structural and functional space of social management practices in the social work management system. The management of social work is presented as a practical management activity, as a system of social work management at the macro, meso, and micro levels, as a process of planning, motivation, implementation, and control of management decisions. Social management practices in the management system of social work act as ways of implementing social management actions that are formed as a result of the interactions of social management subjects in the field of social service provision. The dimensions of the formation, reproduction and implementation of social management practices, which create a complete structural and functional space in the management system of social work, which are implemented in cognitive-interpretive, value-motivational, procedural-organizational, communicative and activity-organizational dimensions, are highlighted and analyzed. The analysis of various sociological approaches to the interpretation of "social practice" made it possible to distinguish social-management practices as cognitive-interpretive, value-motivational, procedural-organizational, communicative, and activity-organizational, which act as an integral structural-functional space of social-management practices in the management of social work. The study singled out three main models of social management practices in the management system of social work at the regional and local (territorial community) levels of management: administrative model; model of organizational development of the region/community; model of partnership interaction of social management subjects. It was analyzed that social interaction reflects the relationship between individuals and social groups, between social groups and organizations of different levels of its functioning as a system, and therefore lies at the basis of the management system, which is carried out through the social management practices of the governing subjects, according to socially acceptable values - normative and status-role models of behavior in society in a certain space and time.

Authors: Ngabea Murtala Audu , Akor Alexander Agada , Habib Zaiyad Garba , Umar Hayatu
Published: January 2023

Objectives:

Hypertension remains one of the important risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and a major global public health problem. The left ventricular hypertrophy is a recognized complication of systemic hypertension and strongly predicts cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. In Nigeria, few studies have evaluated the accuracy of multiple electrocardiography (ECG) criteria in the diagnosis of the left ventricular hypertrophy among hypertensives. This study sets out to determine ECG criterion or criteria that define most accurately echocardiographic left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) among patients with hypertension in a tertiary health institution in Nigeria.

Materials and Methods:

One hundred and seventy-eight hypertensives and 89 age- and sex-matched controls were recruited consecutively into the study. All participants including hypertensives and control subjects had echocardiography whereas only hypertensive subjects had both echocardiography and ECG. ECG LVH was determined using various ECG criteria.

Results:

The various ECG criteria for diagnosis of LVH were lower in sensitivities (23.5–38.6%) compared to specificities (64.1–72.9%). The sensitivities and specificities were 28.9% and 64.0%, 38.6% and 72.9%, 23.5% and 64.1%, 34.6% and 69.4%, 34.4% and 68.0%, and 38.6% and 72.9% for Sokolow-Lyon, Cornell voltage, Romhilt-Estes, Cornell duration product, Goldberger, and Massoleini criteria, respectively. The areas under the various receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were 0.7010, 0.6040, 0.5960, 0.5950, 0.4790, and 0.4660 for Sokolow-Lyon, Cornell voltage, Massoleini, Romhilt-Estes, Goldberger, and Cornell product duration criteria, respectively.

Conclusion:

Cornell voltage, Sokolow-Lyon, and Massoleini ECG criteria had the highest combination of sensitivities and specificities with the highest ROC values and thus most accurate ECG LVH criteria

Aim. To study the levels of proangiogenic and antiangiogenic growth factors in vitreous fluid in choroidal melanoma by multiplex flow cytometry. Methods. The concentration of proangiogenic (IL-8, angiogenin, TNFα, VEGF, bFGF) and antiangiogenic (IFNα, TGFβ, IFNγ) growth factors in the vitreous fluid of 5 patients with choroidal melanoma (MC) was determined by multiplex flow cytometry. Thirty-eight patients with senile cataracts served as a matching group. Results. Compared with senile cataract, in the vitreous fluid of the eyes with choroidal melanoma, there was a significant increase in the frequency of detection and level of proangiogenic cytokines TNFα (80,0 % vs. 47.5 %, p<0.05; Msr±m: 4.3±1.1 pg/ ml against 1.4±0.3 pg/ml, p<0.05), IL-8 (100 % vs. 75 %, p<0.01; 323.2±227.9 pg/ml versus 8.5±1.5 pg/ml, r<0.001), angiogenin (11704.9±1767.7 pg/ml versus 2820.15±1404.9 pg/ml, r<0.01), VEGF (100,0 % vs. 68.2 %; p<0.05; 471.49±154.6 pg/ml vs. 18.4±3.2 pg/ml, p<0.05; 471.49±154.6 pg/ml vs. 18.4±3.2 pg/ml, p<0.05) and FGFb (60 % vs. 26.7 %, p<0.05; Msr: 44.6±16.2 vs. 2.7±1.0, p<0.001). In both groups of patients, TGFβ antiangiogenic factor was not detected, but the concentration of IFNγ was found in five of the eight samples at the level of 14.9±12.2 pg / ml, and the levels of IFN were 4-fold higher: 17.6±3.9 pg / ml against 4.4±0.4 pg / ml (p<0.05). Conclusions. Elevated levels of proangiogenic growth factors (IL-8, angiogenin, TNFα, VEGF and bFGF) in the vitreous fluid in choroidal melanoma indicate simultaneous presence of three mechanisms for stimulating angiogenesis, two of which are independent of VEGF, act independently and may show synergism. Insufficiently high levels of interferons (IFNγ and IFNa) against the background of TGFβ absence of in the vitreous fluid suggests that secretion and control of regulation of the natural angiostatic link of angiogenesis in the eyes with choroidal melanoma is suppressed. High levels of cytokines with pluripotent (proangiogenic and proinflammatory) properties indicate that in choroidal tumors inflammation may play the role of angiogenesis promoter.

Aim. Evaluation of the effectiveness of the modified tenorrhaphy method in comparison with standard resection in children in the surgical treatment of horizontal strabismus. Methods. In the period from 2017 to 2019, we operated 560 patients with horizontal strabismus aged 2 to 14 years. Of these, 288 patients underwent tenorrhaphy modified by us (main group), 272 patients underwent classical resection (the control group). In small and medium angles of strabismus, a strengthening operation was performed simultaneously on one eye in combination with a recession of the antagonist muscle. In large angles of strabismus, the reinforcing operation was performed with tenomyoplasty. Results. In main group, the state of orthotropy was achieved in 85.4 % of cases (246/288 patients), in control group – in 83.5 % of cases (227/272 patients), p = 0.523 (statistical difference is not significant). A residual angle of strabismus up to 5 ° was observed in 40 patients (14 %) in main group and in 44 patients (16.5 %) in control group, p = 0.449 (statistical difference is not significant). Conclusions. Tenorrhaphy according to our modified technique is not inferior to classical resection in efficiency and, in combination with recession (tenomyoplasty) of the antagonist muscle, gives stable predictable results. The tenorrhaphy method is safer, technically simpler, has no risk of «losing» the muscle, more physiological since there is no cutting of the muscle from the attachment site and blood supply disorders in the anterior segment of the eye; it is easy to correct in the immediate postoperative period. Key words: tenorrhaphy; fold; strabismus; children.

Summary. Myopia is a condition characterized by a refractive error due to the lengthening of the anterior-posterior lengthof the eyeball; among all types of refractive errors, myopia is the most common. To date, the number of patients with myopia tends to increase, which is primarily due to the lifestyle of modern people. The increase in the number of patients with myopia is also due to hereditary factors. Pathologic myopia, manifested by a combination of an increase in the anteriorposterior axis of the eye and characteristic changes in the fundus, is a threat of loss of central vision, and is also associated with the risk of other diseases of eye structures. Pathologic myopia can be a predictor of diseases such as primary open-angle glaucoma, rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, myopic choroidal neovascularization, chorioretinal atrophy. Pathologic myopia is also characterized by the development of dystrophic changes in the periphery of the retina, thinning of the sclera, choroid, changes in the optic nerve head, formation of staphylomas, etc. Currently, the problems of myopia progression, an increase in the number of patients with pathologic myopia are the most relevant, and to prevent it, all available methods for the timely diagnosis of myopia and control of its progression should be applied. Key words: myopia; retina; macula; glaucoma.

Goal. To analyze the features of neuro-ophthalmic symptoms and study visual functions recovery following parasellar meningiomas (PM) surgery.
Material and methods. We have analyzed the results of treating 47 patients with PM which have been operated in the Romodanov Neurosurgery Institute in 2017 - 2021. The main group included 47 patients (94 eyes) with PM with visual disorders. Clinical-neurological and ophthalmological examination and a range of neuroimaging studies were carried out. To evaluate the visual functions, the results were analyzed according to the recommendations of the German Ophthalmological Society.
Results. Binocular visual disturbances have been detected in 34 (72.3%) patients. Among visual field defects, absolute bitemporal hemianopia prevailed in 14.9% of patients and a combination of relative upper quadrant temporal hemianopia with absolute temporal hemianopia in 19.2% of patients. Monocular visual disturbances have been detected in 13 (27.7%) patients. Optic nerve atrophy was found in 38 patients (80.9%): unilateral - 21 patients (21 eyes), bilateral - 17 patients (34 eyes). A probable difference was revealed in the average visual acuity: before treatment 0.55±0.04, after treatment 0.67±0.04 (p<0.05) and the average total loss of sensitivity: before treatment 11.37±0, 78 dB and after treatment 9.14±0.79 dB (p<0.05).
Conclusions. Parasellar meningiomas constitute a significant part of extracerebral tumors. As a result of surgical treatment, there is a significant improvement in visual acuity and visual field.

Pengaruh Fraud Risk Assessment dan Independensi Terhadap Kemampuan Auditor Mendeteksi Kecurangan Dengan Skeptisme Profesional Sebagai Variabel Intervening (Studi Kasus Pada Kantor Perwakilan Badan Pengawasan Keuangan dan Pembangunan (BPKP) Provinsi Kalimantan Barat)
Authors: Putri Atika Wulandari
Published: January 2023

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of fraud risk assessment and independence on the auditor's ability to detect fraud with professional skepticism as an intervening variable. The data used in this study are primary data. The method of data collection is done by giving questions in the form of questionnaires to respondents. The population of this research is all auditors who work in the Representative Office of the Financial and Development Supervisory Agency (BPKP) of West Kalimantan Province. The selection of this sample uses a purposive sampling technique and the sample obtained is 35 auditors. The data analysis technique was performed using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method with the Partial Least Square (PLS) approach using WarpPLS 6.0 software. The results showed that fraud risk assessment was positive and significant on the auditor's ability to detect fraud. Independence had a positive effect but was not significant on the auditor's ability to detect fraud. Professional skepticism becomes a partial mediating variable between the assessment of fraud risk of the auditor's ability to detect fraud and becomes a complete mediating variable between the independence of the auditor's ability to detect fraud.

Pada saat ini praktik fraud sudah sering terjadi dalam kehidupan bermasyarakat bukan hanya terjadi pada dunia bisnis dan pemerintahan, namun sudah merambat kedalam organisasi nirlaba. Dimana untuk membuahkan hasil dari tujuan menguntungkan kepentingan pribadi, ada serangkaian perbuatan tak terpuji yang dilakukan seperti perekayasaan angka diatas kerja bahkan pemanipulasian data. Dalam konteks tersebut, akuntansi forensik menjadi ilmu yang berperan dalam pencegahan dan pendeteksian bahkan pengungkapan fraud yang terjadi, terutama mengungkap dan menelisik penyebab fraud yang telah mewabah kedalam kehidupan organisasi nirlaba, sehingga terjadi perubahan tujuan dasar organisasi tidak lagi berpihak kepada masyarakat justru merugikan masyarakat terutama anggota organisasi. Dari fenomena yang ada, terlihat ketidaksesuaian antara fungsi organisasi nirlaba dalam mensejahterakan kehidupan masyarakat khususnya anggota organisasi dengan perilaku fraud yang dilakukan sekelompok orang untuk menguntungkan pribadi atau sekelompok orang dengan cara melakukan rekayasa permainan angka diatas kertas dan pemanipulasian angka serta praktik kebohongan, yang mana tindakan yang dilakukan bertentangan dengan prinsip dan asas-asas yang menaungi didirikannya organisasi nirlaba. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus. Teknik pengumpulan data menggunakan obeservasi, wawancara mendalam, dan studi dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian ini diharapkan mampu memberikan strategi dalam pencegahan fraud pada organisasi nirlaba di Indonesia

The need for a communication system with a higher data rate and mobility grows along with information and communication technology development. Combining MC-CDMA with the MIMO system and supporting the system with a good transmit diversity technique is a promising idea to provide the needed communication system, especially in high mobility conditions. MC-CDMA can support ubiquitous communications without affecting the achievable BER and is more capable of high-speed mobility. It integrates the benefit of both OFDM and CDMA. On the other hand, QO-STBC increases the bit rate without using additional bandwidth to transmit diversity in the MIMO system. So, this study proposed a system combining the MIMO MC-CDMA system with QO-STBC. The proposed system is investigated under high mobility conditions to see the system's performance. The simulation results show that our system performs better than the MC-CDMA STBC system and the QOSTBC system but not better than the MC-CDMA multilevel coding scheme. To reach the value of BER 10−3, MC-CDMA multilevel Coding requires less power, around 5 dB, than the proposed system.

The article addresses the treatment of uterine fibroids, which is still relevant. According to numerous studies, about 70% of females under 50 have uterine fibroids, the most common condition among perimenopausal women. The prevalence of giant forms is not high and accounts for less than 5% of all cases, especially at early diagnosis. The surgical strategy in such cases is individual and depends on many factors: size, location of nodes, and women's reproduction plans. In these clinical cases, the management of patients with giant uterine fibroids is presented according to the multimodal principles of fast-track surgery in a modern gynecological hospital. We described the main approaches in diagnosis, preoperative preparation, surgery features, and subsequent recovery to reduce the complication rate, the duration of inpatient treatment, and postoperative rehabilitation in the treatment of giant uterine fibroids.

This study selected the entire Seoul Metropolitan Government as an analysis target site, and examined the spatial correlation between the CPTED project implementation area and the occurrence grade by crime type at an exploratory level.
It is desirable that CPTED be applied to areas selected as vulnerable areas for crime, and through this, high crime prevention effects in the local community can also be expected. However, there is also a possibility of committing an error in measurement in which subjectivity is involved depending on the personal competence of the CPO injected for field observation. In addition, local governments or the private sector need investment to implement the CPTED project, and there may be areas where CPTED is not implemented even though it is a high crime risk area due to differences in conditions in each community. Therefore, this study geocoded and displayed the CPTED project application areas promoted in cooperation with the police and local governments, and explored the distribution of these locations. In addition, spatial correlation was reviewed to the extent of the correlation between the CPTED project application area and the crime type at the administrative dong level, and spatial regression was analyzed to see if the CPTED project affects the crime type in the region while controlling other factors. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the regional deviation of the CPTED project was very high, and no significant correlation was found between the CPTED project and the incidence grade by crime type. This suggests that the systematic diagnosis of the crime occurrence grade at the level of administrative dong was somewhat insufficient when selecting the CPTED project area. In this study, it was suggested that the current CPO and CSO systems were urgently improved through the derived research results, and finally, the limitations of the study were discussed.

Origins of Burial Practices in Eastern Part of Eurasia: The Case of Zhoukoudian Cave
Authors:   Peter the Great Museum of Anthropology and Ethnography RAS, Yanshina O. V.
Published: January 2023

This paper examines characteristic features of the Zhoukoudian cave. This site is rather well known to specialists, but mainly from the work of anthropologists, but not as a funerary complex. Therefore, there is every reason to consider its records from this point of view to understand how they fit into the general line of burial practice development in the eastern part of Asia. New carbon dates determine the cave age in the range of 33.5–38.4 thousand years cal. BP and turn it into the earliest burial complex of the region. However, in this case, there appears a gap of ten to fifteen thousand years between it and other Upper Paleolithic burials known in estern part of Asia. Besides Zhoukoudian, there were only two burial traditions in the Upper Paleolithic there. The first, in the north, is associated with the ritual burials of children (Mal’ta, Ushki, Upward Sun River) and suggested to be originated in the Eastern Europe, but seems was not inherited by the regular burial activity arose later in the Early Neolithic. The second, in the south, came up immediately as a regular burial practice being connected with cave interments, crouched position of the dead, after-death manipulations with their bodies, including cremation, and poor burial offerings (Xom Trai, Doi Pha Kan, Tron Bon Lei, Niah cave, Liang Nabulei Lisa, Liang Lembudu, etc.). The origin of this tradition is under question, but all Neolithic cultures to the south of Pearl River followed and abided it up to the agriculture spreading. Although ritual rites of the Zhoukoudian burials cannot be reconstructed because of the data dearth, ornaments assemblage definitely associates this site with north areas of Eurasia. Moreover, the distribution of the main jewelry types, found in the eastern part of Eurasia, has shown that those of Zhoukoudian cave (perforated animal teeth and bone tubes) are met to the sites located to the north, west and south-west of Baikal and absent to the east of it where eggshell beads were popular. This looks like that of the single area of two former kinds of ornaments was split into two parts by the eggshell bead bearers. From this, the Zhoukoudian cave has seemed culturally more associated with areas to the west of Baikal and the earliest waves of Homo sapiens intrusion into East Asia.

This article presents the Neolithic ceramics of the Ust-Belaya and Posolskaya types from sites in the vicinity of Krasnoyarsk from the funds of the Krasnoyarsk Regional Museum of Local History. These materials were found at the sites of Ust-Sobakino, Bazaikha, Ladeiki, and Nyasha in the 1890s–1920s. During these years, various researchers collected exhibited material, including Neolithic ceramics, and handed it over to the museum's funds. The only excavations of the Neolithic site during this period were carried out in 1929 at Ust-Sobakino by V. Kartsov. Most of the material received was not published. 110 fragments from 29 vessels of the Ust-Belaya type and 12 fragments from 8 vessels of the Posolskaya ones were analyzed. Vessels of the Ust-Belaya type were found at all objects and have a simple closed, rarely open form. The ornament could occupy both the upper part of the vessel and cover it entirely. The rim on the outer side, or on both sides, is decorated with oblique impressions of a comb stamp, rarely smooth or other types of serrated. In the rim area there is a belt of rounded pits. The main part of the ornamental composition is represented by lines of a receding scapula or rows of impressions of comb, larval and other types of serrated stamp (rarely smooth). Posolskaya type pottery was found at Nyasha and one fragment at Bazaikha. Vessels have a closed shape with weak profiling. The ornament is localized in the upper part of the vessel and, in general, demonstrates the stability of the compositions: in all cases, horizontal motifs predominate. The rims are decorated on the outside with imprints of a comb stamp set at an angle and have a belt of round holes. Below the composition continues with horizontal drawn lines, or a receding shoulder blade with a narrow-rounded working edge. Overall, the collection of Neolithic ceramics of both types finds broad analogies in the materials of Baikal-Yenisei Siberia. The lower time limits for both types of ceramics in the region are determined by the dates from the Elenev Cave site – 6900±115 BP (SOAN-3998) for the Posolskaya type and 6475±190 BP (SOAN-2906) for the Ust-Belaya type. The upper limit is determined in the same way according to the date from Nyasha 4080±60 BP. However, for the Southern Angara and Baikal regions, dates were obtained in a narrower chronorange from 5852±34 (ОхА-22373) to 5585±20 BP (UCIAMS-207539).
