Abstract
The article is based on the observations which the author made in the course of the excavations conducted by I.G. Pidoplichko in 1972. The author gives additional information on dwelling complex 3 and re-interprets several details connected with it. The remains of the dwelling showed no traces of diluvial impact. The enclosure of the dwelling included 5-6 mammoth skulls. Skull 23, which I.G. Pidoplichko had interpreted as part of the enclosure and the entrance, proved to be a detail of the hearth structure. The above-ground hearth was situated in the center of the dwelling. There are indications that the pit at the northeastern edge of the dwelling, which contained animal bones, was man-made.
