In the article, there are burial complexes of the elite of the Volga-Don region analyzed. Changes in the composition and origin of male and female items of prestige have been traced over four chronological periods (3rd – 2nd centuries BC, late 2nd – 1st centuries BC, 1st – mid-2nd century AD, 2nd half of the 2nd – mid-3rd century AD). Based on the analysis of the intra-cultural, foreign-cultural and cross-cultural markers of prestige, assumptions are made about the nature of network contacts between the barbarian elites of the region and the main foreign policy actors.
