The Prague-Penkov-Kolochin group of archaeological cultures identified with early Slavic populations in the 6th and 7th centuries, and Ipotești–Cândești with local influences.

The Ipotești–Cândești culture (Romanian: Cultura Ipotești-Cândești, Ukrainian: культура Іпотешть-Киндешть) was an archaeological culture in Eastern Europe. It developed in the mid-6th century by the merger of elements of the Prague-Penkovka and Prague-Korchak cultures and local cultures (including Germanic and Roman) in the area between Prut and Lower Danube.[1][2] It stretched in the Lower Danube over territory in Romania and Moldova.[3] The population of the area was mostly made up of Early Slavs.[2] There are views that it derived from the Chernyakhov culture and represented a group of the Antes,[3] but also mixed with Sclaveni.[2] The houses were identical to the Slavic huts of the Prague-Korchak and Penkovka areas.[4] The sites in Romania are known as Ipotești-Candești-Ciurel[5] or Ipotești-Ciurel-Cândești.[6]
