The Scythians Nomad Warriors of the Steppe

Barry Cunliffe, Barry (Emeritus Professor of European Archaeology Cunliffe, Emeritus Professor of European Archaeology University of Oxford) — 2021
The Scythians were warlike nomadic horsemen who roamed the steppe of Asia in the first millennium BC. Using archaeological finds from burials and texts written, mainly, by Greeks, this book reconstructs the lives of the Scythians, exploring their beliefs, their burial practices, their love of fighting and their flexible attitude to gender.
