🔴 The rise and transformation of Bronze Age pastoralists in the Caucasus
"For two millennia, mobile pastoralism dominated lifeways on the great expanses of steppe extending northwards from the Caucasus mountains. Fuelled by technological innovations such as wheeled transport and dairy pastoralism, as well as emerging horse husbandry, steppe populations from the Caucasus–Steppe interface exerted a large influence on the Eurasian landmass, leaving far-flung genetic and cultural footprints that remain even today. Understanding the dynamic and complex population interactions that shaped the region’s most influential BA groups, such as the Maykop, Yamnaya and Kura–Araxes, is key to reconstructing the population history of both Europe and Asia."
