Keywords: the Late Middle Ages, the Modern period, funerary structures, unification of the description system.

The paper raises the question of developing a unified system for describing underground wooden funerary structures. The author proposes a form developed as a result of studying materials from monastery, parish and cathedral necropolises of the late Middle Ages and the Modern Period located in the Upper Volga region and gives detailed comments on it. The proposed system is a practical development to be used by researchers involved in archaeological studies of Christian funerary sites.
