Description
Starting from 2019 The Yamnaya Impact on Prehistoric Europe (YMPACT) ERC Advanced Project based at the University of Helsinki has been investigating the impact of steppe societies on the western end of the Great Eurasian Steppe during the first half of the 3rd millennium BC. As part of the project, archaeological excavations have been conducted so far in two Early Bronze Age burial mounds, in 2019 in Boldești-Grădiștea, Prahova County, Romania, and 2021 in Mogila, Yambol Province, in Bulgaria. This presentation aims to share with the scientific community the preliminary results of the project excavations and to explore future research directions.
