It is included to preserve Soviet and post-Soviet regional nomenclature and radiocarbon work. Its boundaries and relationship to other Srubnaya variants are analytical, not ethnic.
Properties and assignments
A label’s definition and the evidence for assigning it here are separate.
Archaeological label, not an ethnicity
A modern archaeological classification based on material patterns rather than a secure ancient self-identified people.
Why does this record have this property?
The record groups material, chronological, or regional evidence. No assignment of language, ancestry, ancient self-designation, or modern national continuity follows from the label alone.
