The Poltawka culture (scientifically Poltavka culture ) is an archaeological culture of the early to middle Bronze Age around the period 2600–2300 BC. BC (Morgunova 2013) from the central Volga in the northwest to the Volga knee near today's Don-Volga Canal down to west of Orenburg in the Urals.
Like the catacomb grave culture in the west, it followed the pit grave / Yamnaja culture in the east and was itself superseded by the Sintashta culture. It also seems to be an early expression of the bar grave / Srubna culture . There are also indications that suggest influences of the Maikop culture .
The only evidence that distinguishes the Poltavka culture from the Yamnaya culture is changes in ceramics and an increase in metal objects. Barrow burials continue, but with less use of ocher.
