Abstract
The Early Medieval period is one of the least studied historical periods of Saryarka in archaeological terms.The current situation is aggravated by the lack of direct written information about this rather long period of time, covering an entire millennium. The eventful epoch begins in the middle of the VI century, with the annexation of the lands of Central Kazakhstan, as well as Semirechye and Khorezm to the Turkic Khaganate.The beginning of the research of Early Medieval monuments is associated with the work of the Central Ka-zakhstan Archaeological expedition, then the study was continued by the Saryarka archaeological expedition and the Karaganda University named after E.A. Buketov. It should be noted that in recent years there has been a positive trend in the study of funerary and memorial early medieval monuments of Central Kazakh-stan. However, the accumulated materials are still few and without systematic research, positive changes are not expected in the coming years, and the stage of primary data accumulation may last for more than a dec-ade
