The Slab-grave culture is an archaeological culture of Late Bronze Age (LBA) and Early Iron Age Mongolia.[3][4] The Slab-grave culture formed one of the primary ancestral components of the succeeding Xiongnu, as revealed by genetic evidence. The ethnogenesis of Turkic peoples and the modern Mongolian people is, at least partially, linked to the Slab-grave culture by historical and archaeological evidence[5][6] and further corroborated by genetic research on Slab-grave remains.[7][8]

The Slab-grave culture is dated from 1300 (Transbaikal) resp. 700 (Mongolia) to 300 BC.[9] The origin of the Slab-grave culture is not definitively known, however, genetic evidence is consistent with multiple hypotheses of a local origin dating back to at least the Bronze Age.[10] In particular, the people of the Ulaanzuukh culture and the Slab-grave culture are closely linked to the westward expansion of Neolithic Amur ancestry associated with Ancient Northeast Asians (ANA).[11] The genetic profiles of individuals from the Ulaanzuukh LBA and the Slab-grave culture are identical, which is in agreement with the archaeological hypothesis that the Slab-grave culture emerged from the Ulaanzuukh.[12]

To the west and northwest, the Slab-grave culture was adjacent to, and essentially contemporaneous with, the Deer stones culture of primarily Khövsgöl LBA ancestry, and various Saka cultures such as the Tagar culture, the Pazyryk culture and the Aldy-Bel culture for a period of several centuries.[2][13] The Slab-grave culture was superseded by the Xiongnu culture, which formed a vast empire stretching across much of the Eurasian world, and saw the hybridization of Scytho-Siberian and Eastern Steppe populations and cultures.
