****GK: The basic Baltic culture north of Milograd is
called "the stroked ceramic culture" in my sources.To
the east of Milograd, there was the "Yukhnov culture".
I remember reading a good book by Marija Gimbutas
["The Balts"]which is probably still relevant on this
issue. Newer literature has not altered the
basics.****

****GK: Maybe "BaltoSlavic" would be best. BTW
Milograd/Pidhirtsi were Herodotus' "Neuri" ****
