The article is concerned with the publication of two new finds of early Sarmatian shape iron daggers, found in the southern foothill zone of the Chui valley (Kyrgyzstan). This category of weapons is considered as a rare find on the territory of the spread of the Saka culture of Tien Shan region. Therefore, each new find of such items significantly expands the understanding of the features of the formations and development of the blade weapons in this territory. The first dagger by its morphological features was dated to the late half of the 5th – first half of the 4th centuries BC. Similar analogies were discovered on the territory of the Forest-Steppe Altai, the Volga region and the South Urals, which allowed to clarify its chronological framework. The second dagger was dated by the author back to the first half of the 3rd century BC. At the same time the closest morphological parallels are found mainly in the Sarmatian materials of the South Urals region. Analysis of the data of the two daggers showed that Tien Shan region was already quite early in the southern periphery of the original territory of formation of the early Sarmatian-type blade weapons. It is noteworthy that cultural interrelationships not only with the territories of the Southern Urals and Volga region, but also with the Forest-Steppe Altai, played a significant role in appearance and spread of the daggers there.

This paper discusses specialized treatment of the wounded in the hospitals of the Southern Urals in the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945). It is proved that the specialized treatment of the wounded undergone significant changes during 1941-1945. The paper defines nature of injuries and damage, treatment time, forming, distribution of hospital beds and a contingent of the wounded and sick Red Army soldiers. The author states that throughout the war the surgical activity in the South Urals hospitals increased. The study deals with the problem of death in base hospitals. The number of Red Army soldiers deaths was undercounted. This study has shown that due to medical workers of the South Urals hospitals specialized treatment of the wounded made a qualitative leap in the development of the stage treatment. At the beginning of the war general surgery and general therapeutic hospitals were created. Then, in order to ensure the most qualified assistance to the wounded, specialized hospitals and offices were deployed. The authors estimated that the application of advanced methods of treatment in the evacuation hospitals of the South Urals helped to heal 72,3% wounded and 90, 6% patients and they returned to military service. These materials can serve as a basis for further research in the Southern Urals health history and, in general, the history of the South Ural Region, as well as the patriotic education of the youth.

The article reviews the collection of documents “Emperor Alexander II and the Southern Urals,” published in 2019 and dedicated to the 200th anniversary of the Emperor. The book tells of the Tsarevich’s journey through the Southern Urals in 1837 and of manufacture of gifts to him by the Zlatoust craftsmen; a separate part consists of documents devoted to the reign of Alexander II and the impact of the Great Reforms on the development of the region. The collection ends with documents on the perpetuation of the Emperor’s memory. The review proves that this collection of documents closes the topic of relations between Alexander II and the Southern Urals, which has been little studied in the historiography. It concludes that the initiators of the publication – employees of the Joint State Archive of the Chelyabinsk Region – have included in the book legislative acts, recordkeeping materials, materials of the periodical press, sources of personal provenance, photographs, and visual materials. There is a list of archives and museums from which the sources originate: state archives of the Chelyabinsk, Orenburg, Sverdlovsk regions, the National Archive of the Republic of Bashkortostan, the Archive of the Zlatoust City District; the Verkhny Ufaley and Zlatoust local history museums; the Russian State Archive of Photo Documents, the State Russian Museum; the Department for Preservation of Historical Heritage of the South Ural Railway, the Russian State Historical Archive, and the State Archive of the Russian Federation. The review describes the structure of the collection and contends that it contributes to comprehensive coverage of the studied problems. It allows its readers to find the needed documents confidently and quickly, even with minimal research skills. Photo documents (little–known photographs and drawings) included in the collection complement the text quite successfully. The reviewers underscore that the publication contains three extensive introductory articles, the reading of which contributes to a deeper understanding of the sources. Thus, the review concludes that the collection has expanded the documentary base adequately in order to spur extensive research of the pre–revolutionary history of the Southern Urals.

The article presents tests of natural creeping apple trees and natural dwarfs, carried out in the in the conditions of the Orenburg region. There were from 50 to 100 trees in the experiment in each variant. Vigorous standard plantations were used as control. The aim of the research was to test natural creeping apple trees, natural dwarfs against the background of standard varieties bred in the South Urals (Chelyabinsk), as well as to determine their prospects for intensive horticulture in the extreme conditions of the region. The preservation of plantings for all variants of the experiment for 20 years of research is high and amounted to 92-99 %, their condition was estimated at 4.5-5.0 points. The highest yield was noted for natural dwarfs (457.2 c/ha), the smallest yield was obtained on vigorous standard plantings (control) – 238.7 c/ha. Naturally creeping apple trees in terms of productivity were higher than control by an average of 25 %. Of the naturally creeping varieties, the most productive were the varieties Podsnezhnik (348.3 c/ha), Chudnoe (335.2 c/ha), the least productive were the varieties Plastun and Kovrovoe (255.1 and 262.5 c/ha, respectively). On the natural dwarfs, the most productive variety was the variety Brat Chudnogo (461.2 c/ha). In the control, the most productive varieties were the varieties Symbol (295.9 c/ha) and Nadezhda (270.5 c/ha), less productive were the varieties Pamyat Zhavoronkova and Fevralskoe (208.0 and 224.1 c/ha, respectively). Low-growing plantations, in particular layer and natural varieties of the Urals, are distinguished by their early maturity and, in general, higher productivity per unit area. The highest labor costs are accounted for by natural dwarfs (485.4 person-day/ha) and the lowest in vigorous plantings (317.4 person-day/ha). This has a positive eff ect on the profit and rentability of production.

The paper presents the results of a long-term (2001-2018) study of vegetative propagation methods of the Syringa L. genus varieties on the basis of the South Ural Botanical Garden Institute of the Ufa Federal Research Centre of Russian Academy of Sciences. The objective of the study was to determine the most effective and affordable ways of lilac varieties propagating in the climatic conditions of the Southern Urals, as well as to identify environmental factors affecting the effectiveness of vegetative propagation. Throughout the research period, such methods of vegetative propagation of lilac varieties as spring vaccinations, summer budding, propagation by aerial roots, green cuttings propagation were studied. As a result of the studies, it was found that the maximum quantity planting material is obtained when varieties are propagated by green cuttings using sand or a mixture of sand with perlite as a substrate. In the South Urals, greenhouses in the open ground for rooting lilac cuttings are practically unsuitable, because rooted cuttings die in them in winter or early spring. Therefore, in the climatic conditions of Bashkortostan, the rooting of lilac cuttings is desirable to be carried out in a sheltered greenhouse. With the help of spring vaccination, you can rejuvenate old vaccinated specimens, and summer budding can be used provided that the grafted plants provide a comfortable wintering, since early frosts characteristic of the Bashkir Urals lead to the death of green and not yet lignified shoots. The method of aerial roots can be considered acceptable and promising for the vegetative propagation of lilacs varieties.

A rare species of Golden algae Chrysosphaerella coronacircumspina var. grandibasa was first discovered in the South Urals. The habitat of this rare species is high-altitude reservoirs with high water quality. Reservoirs located in the protected area of the «Taganay» national Park. C. coronacircumspina var. grandibasa vegetated during the subglacial period and after ice melting under conditions of oligotrophy, low specific electrical conductivity of water, low content of humic substances and neutral active reaction рН. The established conservation status of «Vulnerable species» VU(3) has been confirmed for the South Ural population of the rare chrysosphaerella. Low level of mineralization, oligotrophic water level, low temperature, and high water transparency have been confirmed as limiting factors for the development of South Ural populations of rare algae Chrysosphaerella. The results obtained Supplement information about the flora of Golden algae in Russia, the Urals, the southern Urals, and the «Taganay» national Park and can be used in environmental monitoring.

Территория Самарского Заволжья и Южного Приуралья на всем протяжении голоцена являлась связующим звеном между европейским и сибирско азиатским культурным миром, а также между степными и лесными культурами Восточной Европы. Связи и контакты лесостепного населения Поволжья и Приуралья, нашедшие отражение в своеобразии культурного развития региона, рассмотрены на материалах археологических памятников региона в такие переломные моменты истории, как эпоха энеолита и ранний бронзовый век. Исследование проведено по комплексной методике с использованием методов естественных наук, изучена технология гончарства по методике А. А. Бобринского. Throughout the Holocene the area of the Samara Trans Volga region and the Southern Urals region was a linking element between the European and the Siberian Asian cultural worlds as well as between the steppe and the forest cultures of Eastern Europe. The links and contacts of the Volga forest steppe and the Urals region populations reflected in distinctive features of this region cultural development were examined with the use of materials from archaeological sites of the region during turning points in history such as the Eneolithic and the Early Bronze Age. The study was carried out based on the comprehensive methodology with the use of natural science methods and the review of pottery technology based on A. A. Bobriniskiys methodology.
