The Corded Ware culture, which thrived from around 2900 to 2350 BCE, was a significant prehistoric culture spread across large parts of Europe, including regions of Central, Northern, and Eastern Europe. This culture is so named due to its characteristic pottery, which was often decorated with impressions made by cord-like materials. The Corded Ware people are thought to have been among the first to bring Indo-European languages to Europe, and their spread is associated with the migration of steppe herders from the Pontic-Caspian steppe into new territories. • Archaeological evidence suggests that the Corded Ware culture was highly mobile, likely relying on cattle and horse domestication for their pastoralist lifestyle. Burials were typically individual and gender-differentiated, with men often interred on their right side, facing east, and women on their left. Men were commonly buried with weapons such as stone battle axes, a hallmark of the culture, and women with jewelry or domestic tools. Genetic studies have also shown that the Corded Ware people had significant ancestry from Yamnaya steppe herders, suggesting they played a crucial role in the spread of new technologies, social structures, and language across Europe. • The Corded Ware culture marks a significant period in European prehistory, one characterized by profound social and technological change, including the spread of the wheel and early forms of metalworking. Their influence on later European cultures, particularly in terms of societal organization and pastoralism, was long-lasting. This culture represents an important bridge between the earlier Neolithic societies of Europe and the Bronze Age civilizations that followed. • Link to buy raw dna files: • https://payhip.com/b/9VNrX • Link to research data here: • https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/... • Link to buy my trait predictor executable here: • https://andreikh.itch.io/trait-predictor
