The burial by the village of Nedelkovo is situated between the rivers Dniester and Southern  Bug. This area is poorly investigated that is why the excavations of the burial are very important. Mounds 3,5,9 from this burial are referred  to the Scythian times. A characteristic detail of the funeral rite consists in a grave pit of a rectangular shape with the long side oriented from West  to East. The material is represented by the arrow-heads  and spear-heads, by a bronze mirror, knives, Greek ceramics, glass beads. Basing mostly on the ceramics, the author thinks its possible to date the Scythian burial by the village of Nedelkovo with the first half of the IV c. B.C.
