Globular Amphora culture
Globular Amphora culture appears on the timeline as a people or culture of Central Europe (Europe) from before 3200 to 2800 BCE, a span of more than 400 years. The language of its people is unknown or undeciphered.
Central European culture named for its globular pots, found from the Elbe to the Vistula, which preceded Corded Ware in its central area. An Indo-European origin assumed by Marija Gimbutas is contradicted by newer genetic studies linking it to Early European Farmers.
