The issues reported in the scientific literature refers typology of wooden utensils; study of technology; metal elements; the origins of the tradition of use in the funeral rites; issues of chronology; reconstruction of the social and spiritual life. The author concludes that today all this problems remains relevant. One of the priorities is the development of a unified classification of wooden utensils for all archaeological cultures of the Bronze Age and the introduction of a common terminology to avoid confusion during the publication of new materials, as well as a comparative analysis of the presence of specific types of wooden utensils in the burial of the Bronze Age.
