Archaeological excavations of the settlement of Saltov-Maiaki culture within the period of 2003- 2007 revealed the remains of 8 dwellings. The obtained data provided valuable information on the construction methods, inner layout and heating system of the population of the Saltov culture. The dwellings were plunged into the ground at different depths and had dissimilar wall structures, i.e. the frame-pillared ones and those without pillars. Inside some buildings various elements of the interior: niches, shelves, steps, household and pillar pits were found. Stoves and hearths of different constructions were unearthed in the explored dwellings. The analysis of the dwellings permits to conclude that house-building traditions of the steppe- forest variant of the Saltov culture were influenced by the Alans, Bulgarians and Slavs.
