The article presents the Karym type complexes of the late 4th — 5th c. AD of the Lower Ob cultural and historical community (CHC), discovered in the Omsk Irtysh region near the Alekseevka village (Muromtsevo district of Omsk region). The Alekseevka-51a kurgan cemetery is located within the territory of the Alekseevka archaeological microregion, in the south-eastern outskirts of the Tara-Tuy Plain, on the right bank of the Tara River. The burial ground belongs within the late medieval settlement of Alekseevka-51 discovered in 2004 by M.A. Korusenko. In 2009 and 2010, under the leadership of M.Yu. Zdor and Yu.V. Gerasimov, mounds 12, 13, and 14 with collective and single burials containing figure-stamped pottery of the Karym type, fragments of belt sets and decorations from the Migration period were studied. This article provides their full publication, together with data from palaeoanthropological analysis. As a result, when describing burials and the interred ones, artifact assemblages and pottery, the authors discovered syncretic forest-steppe and taiga features in the burial ritual, as well as distant Eastern European and Trans-Ural similarities to the grave goods. The acquired data will further allow a more detailed determination of the distribution area of the Karym type sites of the Lower Ob CHC, clarification of the chronology, causes and consequences of the migration of taiga groups to the forest-steppe of Western Siberia.
