They also trade with them, exchanging their iron, silver and gold for other goods. The Kurgans were famous for their gold and silversmithing, producing elaborate and intricate ornaments, jewelry, and weapons.
The Kurgans have a polytheistic religion, worshipping various gods and goddesses associated with the sky, the sun, the earth, the fire, the water, and the animals.
