In some settlements they produced load carts according to the Russian pattern, while in other settlements wheeled vehicles practice did not exist at all. Mastering Russian wheeled vehicles was irregular in different parts of the region. It was due to the fact that local population had no horses trained for harnessing, no cart harness and skills of using it, absence or poor development of certain types of manufacture and crafts. The first adaptation stage of using a Russian cart is marked by a range of constant features, such as the local population using bridle to command the draught animal instead of reins the lasher seating on the horse’s back rather than in a cart products of milk processing used as lubricants for wheels instead of tar. Due to a general decline in the use of wheeled carts in the XVIII century, expansion of wheeled vehicles of the new type really meant decrease of using saddle horses rather than displacement and substitution of a wheeled cart by another carriage. The new type of wheeled vehicles applied by the indigenous population was first registered in written sources in the XIX century. Local two-wheeled carts were mentioned only once as a means of removing disassembled yurts. At the time, goods were mainly transported by pack animals, most often horses. It is found out that the term «podvoda», which was used in the sources of the XVII – the beginning of the XVIII century to denote the transport of the indigenous population, meant not a wheeled cart but pack animals. The work analyzes written sources mentioning wheeled vehicles of the Minusinsk basin indigenous population of the XVII–XIX centuries, circumstances of decreased use of carts of a Central Asian type and replacing them by Russian carts and adaptation of wheeled vehicles of this new construction into the culture of the indigenous population.
