Шаблон:Short description The Inner Asian Mountain Corridor (IAMC) was an ancient exchange route ranging from the Altai Mountains in Siberia to the Hindu Kush (present-day Afghanistan and northern Pakistan), which took shape in the 3rd millennium BCE.[1][2]Шаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn The expansion of the Indo-European Andronovo culture towards the Bactria-Margiana Culture in the second millennium BCE took place along the IAMC, giving way to the Indo-Aryan migration into South Asia.Шаблон:Sfn
Mountain Corridor
The IAMC contributed to the development of mobile pastoralism in the 4th millennium BCE.[1][2]Шаблон:Sfn Bronze Age mobile pastoralists acted as agents between Central Asian cultures and South Asian cultures via the IAMC, spreading domesticated wheats from South and East Asia to Inner Asia.[3]Шаблон:Sfn Bronze Age pastoralists also transmitted horse riding and bronze technology between Europe and China, but also into South Asia.Шаблон:Sfn
Indo-European migrations
In the fourth millennium BCE a mobile pastoralist culture emerged at the Eurasian steppes.Шаблон:Sfn From the Pontic–Caspian steppe (present-day Ukraine and Russia), the Indo-European Yamna culture spread westwards toward the Great Hungarian Plain; and north-west it developed into the Corded Ware culture.Шаблон:Sfn 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 Culture, from where Indo-European language and culture reached South Asia.Шаблон:Sfn
