Abstract
The article is devoted to one of the major aspects of archeology: the reconstruction of social relations on the basis of data on burial and mortuary ceremonialism. Attention is mainly focused on the theoretical problems of the ratio of the “living” reality and its reflection in funeral monuments, especially on the armor as the key material used to determine the social status and restore the armor complex of ancient and medieval societies.
