Andronovo culture

A family of related Late Bronze Age cultures of herders and farmers across the Kazakh steppe, from the southern Urals to the upper Yenisei and south to the edges of Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. They kept cattle, horses, sheep, goats and camels, farmed where they could, and worked copper and bronze.

Scholars widely link them with early speakers of Indo-Iranian languages.
