Summary/Abstract: Although the preponderance of the scholarly judgement that pertains to the creators of Sredniy Stoh and Yamnaya cultures of which origins have subjected to many debates hitherto, considered to be proto-type of the culture known as Kurgan in historiography, sides with the notion that they had an Indo-European stock their ethnic identities are intrinsically far away from being solved. Stetsiuk who had evaluated this crux subject from an another perspective arrived at the conclusion that the main owners of the before-said cultures were people with Turkish language at the consequence of his respective researches. In this article, the author touches upon the most salient features of the mentioned cultures in the sketchy form without going into much detail and places Turkic urheimat in the northern Black sea steppes in the light of both cultures he categorically attributes to the Turks.
