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. 4950 https://doi.org/10.57892/100-44$xR$3Volltext$534 4961 https://opendata.uni-kiel.de/receive/fdr_mods_00000044 5051 570 5051 930 5550 archaeology 5550 bones 5550 cemetery 5550 ceramics 5550 dating 5550 demography 5550 diet 5550 funerary 5550 grave 5550 jewellery 5550 oral health 5550 paleopathology 5550 physical anthropology 5550 ritual 5550 sampling 5550 social inequality 5550 stable isotopes 5550 teeth 5550 tools 5550 weapons
