The early Slavs were an Indo-European peoples who lived during the Migration Period and the Early Middle Ages (approximately from the 5th to the 10th century AD) in Central , Eastern and Southeast Europe and established the foundations for the Slavic nations through the Slavic states of the Early and High Middle Ages . (cloudfront.net)
However, in many areas, archaeologists face difficulties in distinguishing between Slavic and non-Slavic findings, as in the case of Chernyakhov and Przeworsk, since the cultures were also attributed to Iranian or Germanic peoples and were not exclusively connected with a single ancient tribal or linguistic group.

[19] Later, beginning in the 6th century, Slavic material cultures included the Prague-Korchak , Penkovka , Ipotești-Cândești , and the Sukow-Dziedzice group cultures. (cloudfront.net)
Early2
[15] [16] In the 8th century during the Early Middle Ages , early Slavs living on the borders of the Carolingian Empire were referred to as Wends ( Vender ), with the term being a corruption of the earlier Roman-era name. (cloudfront.net)
The earliest, archaeological findings connected to the early Slavs are associated with the Zarubintsy , Chernyakhov and Przeworsk cultures from around the 3rd century BC to the 5th century AD. (cloudfront.net)
Spread4
In the later Iron Age, the Pomeranian culture spread southward, into areas formerly belonging to the Lusatian, Wysoko- and Milograd cultures. (wikipedia.org)
But, alas, probably to the disappointment of some readers, my great prediction is that they're not going to be overly relevant to what happened at this time in Northern and Western Europe, and won't upend the current consensus that the Corded Ware culture (CWC) was the main vector for the spread of steppe ancestry and Indo-European languages into these parts of the continent. (blogspot.com)
That's not to suggest, however, that the spread of the Yamnaya culture into the Carpathian Basin was a cultural process with little or no genetic impact. (blogspot.com)
If "Corded Ware culture (CWC) was the main vector for the spread of steppe ancestry and Indo-European languages into these parts of the continent" how did it happen from linguistic and genetic point of view? (blogspot.com)
Century1
The Pomeranian culture, also Pomeranian or Pomerelian Face Urn culture was an Iron Age culture with origins in parts of the area south of the Baltic Sea (which later became Pomerania, part of northern Germany/Poland), from the 7th century BC to the 3rd century BC, which eventually covered most of today's Poland. (wikipedia.org)
Central3
A related culture of the same age was the House Urn culture in central Germany. (wikipedia.org)
Beaker paper (see here ), there's been a lot of talk online about Hungarian Yamnaya as the most likely source of the Yamnaya-related, R1b-P312-rich northern Bell Beakers who went on to dominate much of Central and Western Europe during the Late Neolithic and Bronze Age. (blogspot.com)
It's true that some archeological cultures west of the Tisza, such as Mako and Vucedol, do show fairly strong Yamnaya influences, but they can't be regarded as part of the Yamnaya colonization of Central Europe. (blogspot.com)
West2
There were fewer hill forts than in the area of the Lusatian culture further west. (wikipedia.org)
They sit firmly among other Copper Age and Neolithic samples from west of the Pontic-Caspian steppe. (blogspot.com)
Baltic2
The Pomeranian culture, also Pomeranian or Pomerelian Face Urn culture was an Iron Age culture with origins in parts of the area south of the Baltic Sea (which later became Pomerania, part of northern Germany/Poland), from the 7th century BC to the 3rd century BC, which eventually covered most of today's Poland.

The area of greatest diversity of L1025 subclades seems to match the West Baltic Culture of Cairns. (phylogeographer.com)
Southward3
About 650 BC, it evolved from the Lusatian culture between the lower Vistula and Parseta rivers, and subsequently expanded southward. (wikipedia.org)
In the later Iron Age, the Pomeranian culture spread southward, into areas formerly belonging to the Lusatian, Wysoko- and Milograd cultures. (wikipedia.org)
The migrations of L1025 may have been checked in Poland by the Pomeranian Culture , which itself was expanding southward at the same time. (phylogeographer.com)
Poland1
This lineage may have joined a coalition of diverse tribes in neighboring Poland that ultimately became known as Przeworsk. (phylogeographer.com)
