Krivoy lake Chelyabinsk region

In the Chelyabinsk region, near the city of Magnitogorsk is the so-called Krivoy lake. The lake is small in volume, belongs to the old type, that is, it was formed on the former riverbed. The lake was named so, presumably, due to the winding curve of its banks. Lake Krivoye became known, first of all, by the nearby burials of the Sintasht type - the time of the Bronze Age. The area of burials is more than 10 square kilometers.
