| Summary: | The article deals with a detailed description of the Volga-Ural cultural group. It occupied the steppes of the region of the same name in the final Middle Bronze Age, is part of the post-Catacomb cultural formations and is an integral part of the Lola culture area. The group is represented by burial mounds and ground burials. The main elements of its visual image are the adorative ritual and orientation to the southern sector.
