Saltovo-Mayaki

Northwest Caucasus caftan, 8-10th century, from the region of Alania.

Saltovo-Mayaki or Saltovo-Majaki is the name given by archaeologists to the early medieval culture of the Pontic steppe region roughly between the Don and the Dnieper Rivers, flourishing roughly between the years of 700 and 950.[1] The culture's type sites are Mayatskoye (aka Mayaki) near the Don and Verkhnii Saltiv by the Donets.[2]: 30, 37 

History

Saltovo-Mayaki influence was strong in the area of the Volyntsevo culture to the northwest of the main Saltovo-Mayaki territory. There is no consensus as to what ethnicity to assign to this culture, if any at all.[3][4]

Characteristics

The Saltovo-Mayaki material culture was "fairly uniform" across the various tribes.[5]

Ethnicity

Their culture was a melting pot of Onogur, Khazar, Pecheneg, Magyar, Alan, and Slavic influences.[citation needed]

Genetics

A genetic study published in Nature in May 2018 examined three males of the Saltovo-Mayaki culture buried in Belgorod Oblast, Russia between ca. 700 AD and 900 AD.[6] The sample of Y-DNA extracted belonged to haplogroup R1.[7] The three samples of mtDNA extracted belonged to the haplogroups I, J1b4 and U7a4.[8]
