Summary/Abstract: The arrowhead sets from Gulyai-Gorod, mound 38 and Zhurovka, mound 432 are published for the first time. The composition of the sets from these mounds is beyond doubt, both of which correspond to the horizon of arrowheads from the second half - the end of the 7th century BC. The issue of the reliability of the composition of the arrowhead sets from Basovka, mound 482, Volkovtsy, mound 478 and Zhurovka, mound 448 is also discussed. As a result of the research, a mechanical inclusion of arrowheads from different periods in these three sets was established, which makes it impossible to use them for the development of chronological schemes.
