Zusammenfassung:According to V.G. Moiseyev's new anthropological polo-age definitions, skulls from the Central tomb of the Aleksandropol’sky kurgan belong to the man enough advanced age for 50 years or more ("tsar"), and the young woman at the age of 20-35 years ("tsarina"). Thanking these definitions the contradiction between structure buried and character of accompanying things is liquidated. K. Baer and B.V. Firshtejn have established heterogeneity of anthropological structure of the buried in Aleksandropol’sky kurgan. "The royal" group buried of kurgan tombs finds out similarity with Sauromatians of the Lover Volga region. These conclusions prove to be true new mass anthropological materials from the Scythian kurgan s investigated in 1960-1990. S.I. Kruts has established existence in Scythia group of the Scythian population at which similarity to the population of east territories, in particular, with Sauromatians of the Lover Volga region and Saka of Northern and the Central Kazakhstan is traced. Such lines of similarity in Northern Black Sea Coast are traced since Prescythian time - Novocherkassk stage VIII-VII centuries BC.
