Abstract
Iichthyological materials, represented in the article, had been received from field investigations in Neolithic Baibek settlement in 2013 year. In total we investigated 310 fragments of fish, 8 species identified representatives: stellate sturgeon ( Acipenser stellatus ), sterlet ( Acipenser ruthenus ), common carp ( Cyprinus carpio ), bream ( Abramis brama ), zander ( Sander lucioperca ), perch ( Perca fluviatilis ), pike ( Esox lucius ) and catfish ( Silurus glanis ). The results of reconstruction of size, weight and age of the fish is represented in the article. A significant percentage of small-sized fish (70.5%) may indicate lack of food resources in the settlement during the studied period, and species composition suggests year-round fishing , the most actively carried out in the spring and spring-summer period.
