There is evidence of influence from the Maykop culture to its south. The only real things that distinguish it from the Yamna culture are changes in pottery and an increase in metal objects.

It is distinguished by its burials, particularly by the presence of wagons in them and its own distinct pottery , as well as a richer collection of metal objects than those found in adjacent cultures, as is to be expected considering its relationship to the Maykop culture. It is grouped with the larger Indo European languages Indo European Yamna culture complex, and in common with it, the economy was semi nomadic pastoralism mixed with some agriculture. Source J. P.

  1. Potapovka culture

    Bronze Age Potapovka culture , ca. 2500&mdash 2000 BC. A Bronze Age culture centered on the Samara bend in the middle Volga region, projecting well east into the Samara River valley. It seems to be connected only in a material culture way with the earlier stage of the Andronovo culture Sintashta and Petrovka settlement Petrovka period , but probably genetically to the Poltavka culture , with influences from the more northerly Abashevo culture . Loosely, it can be considered as descended from the earlier Khvalynsk culture and Samara culture , both of which occupied this same geographic extent. The inhumation s are in kurgans tumuli . Smaller less important graves surround the original tumulus. Animals, either whole or in parts, were among the grave offerings cattle, sheep, goats, dogs . One burial has the corpse s head replaced with that of a horse, reminiscent of the Vedic account of how the Asv ns replace the head of the priest Dadhya c Artharvana with that of a horse so that he could reveal the secret of the sacred drink. &mdash EIEC Potapovka Culture The culture was clearly comfortable with horses. Wheels and wheeled vehicles are equivocally identified in the remains. Mallory argues that the Potapovka culture s lack of a clear genetic relationship with the early Andronovo culture, and that the Andronovo lacks an immediate local ancestor, the cultural trajectory for the Indo European societies of this region need to be seen as coming from the west. It was preceded by the Yamna culture , and succeded by the Srubna culture . Sources J. P. Mallory , Potapovka Culture , Encyclopedia of Indo European Culture , Fitzroy Dearborn, 1997.

The Srubna culture lang ru , lang uk , also Timber grave culture , was a Late Bronze Age 18th 12th centuries BC culture. It is a successor to the Yamna culture , the Catacomb culture and the Abashevo culture . It occupied the area along and above the north shore of the Black Sea from the Dnieper eastwards along the northern base of the Caucasus to the area abutting the north shore of the Caspian Sea , across the Volga to come up against the domain of the approximately contemporaneous and somewhat related Andronovo culture . The name comes from Russian c srub , timber framework , from the way graves were constructed. Animal parts were buried with the body. The economy was mixed agriculture and livestock breeding. The historical Cimmerians have been suggested as descended from this culture. The Srubna culture is succeeded by Scythians and Sarmatians in the 1st millennium BC, and by Khazar s and Kipchak people Kipchak s in the first millennium AD.

  1. Khvalynsk culture

    holocene The Khvalynsk culture was an Eneolithic copper age culture of the first half of the 5th millennium BC, discovered at Khvalynsk on the Volga in Saratov Oblast , Russia. The culture also is termed the Middle Eneolithic or Developed Eneolithic or Proto kurgan . It was preceded by the Early Eneolithic or Samara culture , from which it came, and succeeded by the Late Eneolithic, or Early Yamna culture, to which it descended. Extent and Duration The Khvalynsk culture extended from Saratov in the north to the North Caucasus in the south, from the Sea of Azov in the west to the Ural River in the east. A good sprinkling of calibrated C 14 readings obtained from material in the graves of the type site date the culture certainly to the approximate window, 5000 4500 BC. This material is from Khvalynsk I, or Early Khvalynsk. Khvalynsk II, or Late Khvalynsk, is Late Eneolithic. Some regard Khvalynsk I as Early Eneolithic, contemporary with the Samara culture . Marija Gimbutas Gimbutas , however, believed Samara was earlier and placed Khvalynsk I in the Developed Eneolithic. Not enough Samara culture dates and sites exist to settle the question.
