The article is devoted to the problems of forming the composition of carriers of the Irmen culture of the Late Bronze Age of Western Siberia (XIV-X centuries). Materials from 23 burial grounds in the Kuznetsk basin, Barabinsk forest-steppe, forest-steppe Altai, Tomsk and Novosibirsk Ob region were studied. The results of the analysis allow us to conclude that the Irmen population was formed on the territory of the Novosibirsk Ob region and the Baraba forest-steppe on the basis of the interaction of Fedorov and autochthonous populations. Odontological data exclude the possibility of the Karasuk component entering its composition. Karasuktsy were formed on the Okunev basis, which caused increased frequencies of the Carabelli tubercle and the metaconid knee fold. These two features are practically absent in the native Irmen traditions, but the gracile component introduced by the Fedorovites is clearly represented.

Introduction
The Irmen culture of the Late Bronze Age dates back to the XIV-X centuries BC [Chicha..., 2009, p. 72]. Its monuments were discovered in the Omsk Irtysh region. Barabinsk forest-steppe, Tomsk, Novosibirsk and Barnaul-Biysk Ob region, Kuznetsk basin, Achinsk-Mariinsk forest-steppe. Based on differences in the appearance of objects of material culture and funerary rites, Irmen monuments are divided into two territorial groups: south-western (Omsk Priirtyshye, Barabinsk forest-steppe, Barnaul Priobye) and north-eastern (Tomsk and Novosibirsk Priobye, Kuznetsk basin) [Stepanenko, 2012, p.11].
According to archaeologists, the Irmen traditions were formed as a result of the synthesis of Andronovo (Fyodorov) and autochthonous traditions (Chlenova, 1955; Troitskaya, 1974; Molodin, 1985; Matveev, 1993; Zakh, 1997; etc.). Although this concept is generally not objectionable, there are a number of specific issues that require a separate study. the possible influence of the Karasuk and Lugovskaya traditions on the Irmen culture, the cultural affiliation of the basic autochthonous substrate, the reasons for the differences between the Insky and Priobsky local variants, and the correlation of the so - called Korchazhkin and Elovskaya cultures of the Post-Iron Age with the Irmen culture. The purpose of this work is to consider these issues on the basis of the frequency distribution of nonmetric characteristics of the dental system in the Irmen population of the Kuznetsk basin, Barabinsk forest - steppe, Novosibirsk and Tomsk Ob regions, and forest-steppe Altai.
The material for the study was paleoanthropological samples from 23 burial grounds, totaling 167 individuals (men, women, and children in total): from the Baraba forest - steppe-34, the Kuznetsk Basin-78, the Novosibirsk Ob-28, the Steppe Altai-15, and the Tomsk Ob-12. The morphological description of the series was performed on the basis of a standard odontological model. programs of A. A. Zubov [2006] (tab. 1) with uche-

volume of frequency variation limits for basic odontological phenes in the Mesolithic-Bronze Age (Table 2). Inter-group comparison was performed using hierarchical cluster analysis based on Euclidean distances using the full coupling method. For statistical analysis, the frequencies of seven signs were used: spade-like upper medial incisors (scores 2+3), Carabelli's tubercle on the upper first molars (scores 2 - 5 in total), hypoconus reduction on the upper second molars (scores 3, 3+ in total), six - and four-tubercle lower first molars, and distal trigonid crest and the metaconide geniculate fold on the lower first molars. As a rule, the frequency of lower second quadrilateral molars is also added to this list, but since there are no published data on this trait for the majority of Karasuk series, it was excluded.
Odontological characteristics of local groups of the Irmen population in the Barabinsk forest-steppe (Preobrazhenka-3, Abramovo-4, Sopka-2 burial grounds). On the upper jaw, there is an average frequency of spade-shaped incisors, the absence of additional distal tubercles on the molars, and the average frequency of the Carabelli tubercle (Table 3). According to the latter feature, there are significant differences between men and women. In the male group, its frequency is sharply increased, and in the female group it is reduced. The first molars in the total series are not reduced, the second ones are characterized by an average level of reduction.
On the lower jaw, there is an increased frequency of canine forms of the second premolars, the absence of six-domed variants of the first molars, and a fairly high frequency of gracile four-domed ones. The second molars are mostly gracile, and only one case of their five-humped structure has been recorded. On the first molars, the crown pattern "Y" dominates, on the second - "+". The series is characterized by a moderately increased frequency of the distal trigonid crest and a high frequency of the metaconid knee fold, with the first sign noted only in the male group, and the second in the female group. There are also two cases of protostylid presence on the first molars and one of tami presence.
Forest-steppe Altai (burial grounds Novotroitskoe-1, Pilno, Near Elbany-4, Plotinnaya-1). On the upper jaw, there is a moderately increased frequency of shovel-like forms of medial incisors, with no sign on the lateral ones (Table 3). Additional tubercles on the molars are not found. There is a small percentage of weakly reduced first molars. The latter are also poorly reduced, hypoconus reduction scores of 3.3+ are recorded in less than 30 % of individuals.
On the lower jaw, the intermediate form of 3 premolars is relatively common. Molarized variants of the first premolars and caninized variants of the second premolars were not recorded. The percentage of six-humped first molars is moderately increased. At the same time, a high frequency of gracile forms of teeth of this class was noted in the series, and a case of extreme gracilization of the second molar, up to the Y3 shape, was recorded. On the first molars, variants of the crown pattern "X" and "Y" occur with the same frequency, " + " is less common. Protostylid and knee fold of metaconide were not observed in the series, but the protostylid fossa was recorded with high frequency. A slightly increased frequency of tami and a rather high frequency of the distal trigonid crest were recorded.
Kuznetsk basin (burial grounds of Zhuravlevo-1, - 3, - 4, Zarechnoye-1, Tanay-2, - 7, Vaganovo-2). The series is characterized by a high frequency of spade-shaped medial upper incisors and medium - lateral ones, a low frequency of Carabelli's tubercle and additional distal tubercles, and an average degree of hypoconus reduction of the upper molars (Table 3). Here, an increased frequency of four - humeral forms of the lower first molars and a low frequency of six-humeral forms are noted. Both the first and second molars are dominated by the "Y"pattern of the crown. Protostylid tubercles are absent, and the frequency of tami is relatively high. The metaconid geniculate fold is not recorded in the series; the distal trigonid crest is relatively common.
Tomsk Ob region (burial grounds Elovsky-2, Kamen-1). The odontological series of the Irmen culture of the Tomsk Ob region is characterized by poor preservation. There are no shovel-like forms of the upper medial incisors, and the frequency of this trait is also low on the lateral ones (Table 3). Additional distal tubercles of the upper molars, the Carabelli tubercle, are not found. The level of hypoconus reduction is very low, but the degree of gracilization of the lower molars is high. On the first teeth of this class, the "Y" pattern dominates, and "X" and "+" occur with the same frequency; on the second, the " + " shape prevails, followed by "X", and "Y" remains in the minority. Elements of the protostylid system, tami, distal trigonid crest, and metaconid knee fold are not recorded. It should be noted that the representation of Eastern phenes in the series is the smallest of all Irmen groups.
Novosibirsk Ob region (burial grounds Milovanovo-1, Ordynskoe, Katkovo-3, Burmistrovo, Krokhalevka-13, Spirino-1, Sokolovo-Kolyvan). On the upper jaw, there are average frequencies of spade-shaped incisors, additional distal-

The first molars are not reduced, while the second molars are characterized by a significant reduction. In the series, a relatively increased frequency of canine forms of the second premolars was noted.
On the lower jaw, there are no six-domed molars, and the frequency of four-domed molars, on the contrary, is increased. Variants " + " and " X " of the crown pattern on the first molars occur with an average frequency, on the second - they dominate, being observed with close frequencies. One case of protostylid presence on the first molars was noted in the series. Protostylid pits are much more common (in 26.3% of buried individuals). In one case, the presence of tami on the first molars was recorded. The distal trigonide crest is relatively common, and the metaconide knee fold is absent.
In total, the carriers of the Irmen culture of Western Siberia are characterized by an average frequency of spade-like appearance, low frequencies of the Carabelli tubercle, the distal trigonid crest, the six-humped lower molars and the metaconid knee fold, an average level of reduction of the upper molars, and increased gracility of the lower ones. Despite the rather high variability of the odontological composition and a significant variation in the frequency of some important features, it should be noted that in comparison with the Andronovo time, the population diversity in the territory under consideration has significantly decreased. If the Fedorovsky population could be distinguished as isolated populations with well-defined markers of all odontological variants within the western trunk (Zubova, 2012), then

in the Irmen series, there are almost no traces of the influence of northern Caucasians.
The Irma samples were compared with a series of other archaeological cultures in the southern regions of Western Siberia (Table 1). 4), conventionally divided into three chronological groups. The first group includes materials from the Pre-Iron Age: Neolithic (Kuznetsk-Altai culture, Neolithic of the Barabinsk forest-steppe) and Eneolithic (Bolshemyss culture) times, Early and Middle Bronze Age (Ust-Tartass, Odinovo cultures, burial grounds near the village). Okunevo, Krotovskaya, okunevskaya, Karakolskaya cultures, Rostovka). The second group consisted of a series of the Fedorov culture of Western and Southern Siberia and materials representing synchronous cultural phenomena, but

continuing the autochthonous line of development, they are Late Krotovian from the Barabinsk forest-steppe and attributed to the Chernoozero variant from the Omsk Irtysh region (Chernoozero-1, Borovyanka XVII). The third group includes a series of cultures that replaced Andronovo - Elovskaya, Korchazhkinskaya, Pakhomovskaya and Karasukskaya.
On the dendrogram (see figure), the total set of compared samples is divided into several subgroups. The first group includes all Okunev series, most of the Karasuk series, and materials from the Omsk Irtysh region (except for Chernoozerye-1). None of the Andronovo and Irma samples were included here. Within the second subgroup, there is a close cluster that combines Bronze Age materials from the Barabinsk forest-steppe (except for the Pakhomovo culture) and several smaller aggregates that include all the Andronovo and Irma samples, the Chernoozerya-1 series, the Elovskaya, Korchazhkin, Pakhomovskaya cultures, and the Neolithic one from the Barabinsk forest-steppe.
Based on the results of the analysis, we can conclude that the Irmen and Karasuk populations are based on fundamentally different substrates, and there is no need to speak about any influence of the Karasuk or pre-Karasuk populations of Southern Siberia on the formation of carriers of the Irmen culture. Odontological differences between them have two main points. First, in the Karasuk series, the frequency of the Carabelli tubercle on the upper first molars and the metaconid geniculate fold on the lower ones is very high. In the modern odontological classification, this combination is strongly associated with the northern branch of the Caucasian large race. In the Irmian series, the frequency of the Carabelli tubercle is much lower, and the metaconid knee fold is found only in one sample. Secondly, they are significantly higher

frequency of four-humped lower first molars , a trait traditionally associated with southern Europoid populations. Thus, we can speak not just about the absence of genetic links between the carriers of Irmen and Karasuk cultures, but about their formation on a fundamentally different basis.
Culturally, the northern component of the Karasuk population is related to the Okunevites, for whom the increased frequencies of the Carabelli tubercle and the metaconid knee fold are the absolute norm (Table 5). The southern element in the carriers of the Irmen culture dates back to the Fedorov populations, which for the most part were characterized by an exceptionally high level of gracilization (Zubova, 2012). Among the Karasuk people, the Fedorov component is much weaker, and it cannot offset the influence of the Okunev groups.
The similarity between the Fedorov and Irma series (see figure) confirms the hypothesis that the Irma population was formed on the Fedorov basis with the participation of autochthonous groups and indicates that the origin of the morphological core of this population is more related to the territory of the Barabinsk forest-steppe and the Novosibirsk Ob region than to the Kuznetsk Basin and Steppe Altai. On the dendrogram, the Korchazhka culture series is located closest to the Fedorovsky samples from these two regions, so the hypothesis about the intermediate status of its carriers in relation to the Andronovo and Irma populations receives new confirmation. At the same time, the frequency distribution of odontological features in the local Irma series and their position on the dendrogram indicate that there are no systemic differences between the Ins and Priobskaya groups. The composition of the Irmen population of the Barabinsk forest-steppe is most specific; odontological materials of this population show a metaconid knee fold, but this is due not to the occurrence of the inocular component in it, but to the peculiarity of the previous Fedorov group.

Conclusion
The results of the analysis of odontological materials of the Irmen culture of Western Siberia allowed us to draw several conclusions. First of all, they once again confirmed that the Irma population was formed mainly on the basis of the interaction of Fedorov and autochthonous populations of the Novosibirsk Ob region and the Barabinsk forest-steppe. In the Kuznetsk basin and the forest-steppe Altai, the transformation of the Fedorov traditions is associated with the appearance of the Korchazhkin culture.
Odontological data also indicate that there are no genetic links between the Irmen and Karasuk populations of the Minusinsk basin. The frequency distribution of the most important markers suggests that the latter was formed on a local, Okunev basis, with a limited influence of the Fedorov groups. On the contrary, the carriers of the Irmen culture are dominated by gracile complexes of the southern branch of the Caucasian race, introduced by Fyodorov migrants, and moderately represented by fens marking the autochthonous population of the Ob and Barabinsk forest-steppe, which differs in composition from the Okunevites.
