The Novotitarovskaya culture was located immediately to the north of and largely overlapped portions of the Maykop culture. It faced the Sea of Azov,[1] running from the Kerch Strait eastwards, almost to the Caspian, roughly congruent with the modern Krasnodar Krai region of Russia.[2]
It is distinguished by its burials, particularly by the presence of wagons in them and its own distinct pottery, as well as a richer collection of metal objects than those found in adjacent cultures, as is to be expected considering its relationship to the Maykop culture.[2]
