The article is devoted to a complex analysis of the materials of a collective burial in a burnt log cabin from the Oglakhty burial ground. The burial contained the remains of three people buried according to the rite of inhumation, as well as seven clusters of cremated human bones. No person was buried immediately after death. All three inhumations have evidence of secondary burial. The cremated bones show signs of delayed cremation. Based on a series of four radiocarbon dates, the complex is dated to the 2nd‑3rd centuries AD. In the light of the obtained data, the previously proposed scheme of evolutionary change of the Tashtyk rite from simple graves to complex collective burials in burnt crypts through an intermediate stage with collective burials in burnt logs is reconsidered.
