The transition from the Middle to the Late Bronze Age in the Northern Caucasus is a period characterised by a shift from pastoral lifeways in the steppe to sedentary lifestyles in the high mountains, and the change from hierarchical to egalitarian societies. In this context, this data collection provides basic scientific research on social inequality, demography, oral health, and diet of humans that lived between 2200-1650 BCE in the central North Caucasian foothills. Due to the outstanding preservation of its archaeological and human remains, the cemetery Kudachurt 14 represents a hitherto missing link for a transformative period in this region. en 930 570 10.57892/100-44 cemetery funerary grave social inequality ritual archaeology physical anthropology paleopathology oral health diet dating bones teeth stable isotopes sampling jewellery ceramics weapons tools demography Russian Federation Northern Caucasus Kabardino-Balkaria Kudachurt Kahkhatau 43.63752365112305 43.31735664626575 his Host institution aut Author Fuchs, Katharina 0000-0003-0570-9337 Fuchs Katharina Atabiev, Biaslan ctb Contributor 0000-0002-9195-2482 Atabiev Biaslan Reinhold, Sabine ctb Contributor 0000-0002-8107-6300 Reinhold Sabine 2021-05-20 -2199 -1649 -2199 -1649 2024-02-14 290391021 fdr_mods_00000044 https://opendata.uni-kiel.de/receive/fdr_mods_00000044
