==Indo-European migrations==
In the fourth millennium BCE a mobile pastoralist [[Eurasian nomads|culture]] emerged at the Eurasian steppes.{{sfn|Spengler et al.|2014}} From the [[Pontic–Caspian steppe]] (present-day Ukraine and Russia), the [[Proto-Indo-Europeans|Indo-European]] [[Yamna culture]] spread westwards toward the [[Great Hungarian Plain]]; and north-west it developed into the [[Corded Ware culture]].{{sfn|Narasimhan et al.|2018}} Expanding eastward, Corded Ware eventually developed into the [[Sintashta culture]], which further developed into the Andronovo culture. According to Narasimhan et al. (2018), the Andronovo-culture extended southwards via the IAMC, reaching into the [[Bactria–Margiana Archaeological Complex|Bactria-Margiana Culture]], from where Indo-European language and culture reached South Asia.{{sfn|Narasimhan et al.|2018}}
