The Catacomb culture (Russian: Катакомбная культура, romanized: Katakombnaya kul'tura, Ukrainian: Катакомбна культура, romanized: Katakombna kul'tura) was a Bronze Age culture which flourished on the Pontic steppe in 2,500–1,950 BC.[1]
Originating on the southern steppe as an outgrowth of the Yamnaya culture, the Catacomb culture came to cover a large area. It was probably Indo-European-speaking, with some linguists associating it with Tocharian.[2] Influences of the Catacomb culture have been suggested to be found as far as Italy, Greece, and Syria.[3] It spawned the Multi-cordoned ware culture and was eventually succeeded by the Srubnaya culture.
