The Kelteminar culture is an important phenomenon of the Neolithic period, and new unpublished material from the sites in the Northwestern region of the Aral Sea allows us to understand this culture. Its technological and typological characteristics show the current concept of the development of lithic industries in the region. The studied complexes of sites highlight the components of two Neolithic cultures (the Kelteminar culture and the Oyukly culture) that existed in regions bordering on the study area. The processes of Neolithisation between native and non-native peoples represent cultural interrelations and common vectors of cultural development. The new data enable us to broaden our understanding of the cultural interrelationships and migration processes of peoples living in the Aral Sea region and in Kazakhstan in general.
