Agree. The synthesis of information about other groups, geographic context and migration really helps pull together study of the contemporaries of the Scythians. Many thanks also for the great photos!
Archaeology has proved Herodotus correct time and time again. For example, he said the Skythians sometimes burned hemp seeds on bronze tripods inside their tents. Historians didn’t believe this until archaeological excavations proved it was true. (This might have been part of a religious ritual?). Of course, Herodotus didn’t get every single thing right, who does? But, he actually visited most of the places and peoples he wrote about, gathered their histories, looked at their cultural practices and wrote down what he learned. He also gathered first-hand accounts from natives of other regions. He was the first true factual historian, he notes what is hearsay, legend, etc., and what he saw or heard himself. History means “researches” and is a discipline that he invented.
@@kimberlyperrotis8962 The Scythians would ❤️🔥 more than seeds. They threw branches of hemp onto braziers of coals. They were the first recorded hot boxers.
This was exactly the video about Scythians that I was looking for. It seemed comprehensive and well presented, but it's the only Scythians video I've watched so there is that. No complaints here, those golden combs were very nice

Relax, kazakh-boy. Kazakhs have nothing to do with scythians. Kazakhs are a brand-new nation (first mentioned in 16th century). Your government desire to adorn history of their nation often turns into attempts to appropriate the history which does not rightfully belong to them.
@metamorphosa9838 I am glad you gave me a chance to enlighten you. I encourage you to check everything on yourself if you have any doubts. Kazakhs didn't appear from nowhere in the 15th century. They mainly descended from Kipchak (aka Cuman) tribes and undoubtedly inherited their culture and language, which evolved to the Kazakh language. Later, they were joined (through war and alliances) with turko-mongolic tribes that came with Ghenghis khan. They formed the east wing of The Golden Horde after splitting of The Ghenghis khan Empire to "Ulus"-divisions in 1269. By the end of the 13th century, mongolic tribes and mongolic elite, including Genghisids and Borjigids, were completely absorbed. In the 14th century, during the reign of Özbek khan (1313-1341), all of them became muslims. When Golden horde split to divisions, 23/92 Golden horde turkic tribes became kazakhs that formed an independent Kazakh khanate. Nowadays, kazakhs keep their "shejire" genealogic tradition, which allows them to track their heritage until at least the 13th century. Modern paleogenetic investigations describe the Shejire as historically accurate to track clan-tribe history of clans and dynasties of kazakh people. The same paleogenetic methods also indicate that kazakhs have genetic legacy from pre-turkic scyth-saka tribes in form of R1a haplogroup branches. Kazakh people also bear Xiongnu genetic legacy in form of R1a Z95 and Z2125, N, Q, G1 haplogroups. Artefacts found from mumified and frozen saka burials also indicate similarities between turkic, cuman, and saka cultures.
@@metamorphosa9838 actually we preserved some legacies from Saka people such as pointed hat, you can see its trace from modern Kazakh female traditional headgear , and yeah Kazakhstan nation is relatively young but if you dig a little bit deeper, you’ll find out we’re consisted of numerous tribes which could be traced back much more further
Honestly, this is completely understandable since the 'Chronological history' section is basically 3700 years of history crammed into 21 minutes, so there's a lot to take in.
Christopher Beckwith’s new book is pretty phenomenal on this subject. There is so much more to it than the scattered bands of nomads. Most intriguingly the Royal Scythians.
Nope, Beckwith is a bad source lol. Bro thought Laozi was scythian and that Scythia inspired China. Which is just fucking stipid, whats even more stupid is that Beckwith's evidence is just circular reasoning and acting like every Indo European descendant like the Buddha was somehow Scythian influenced
The next article deals with the 10th century conquerors and the medieval population of the southern part of the Ural Mountains. „Long shared haplotypes identify the Southern Urals as a primary source for the 10th century Hungarians”. The admixture analysis showed that they are mainly descendants of the Yamnaya culture.
The Sistan province of Iran is home to the last Skan/scythians who left the steps after hunnic invasion ,it was known as ''Skistan'' in the older times, and was changed to Sistan after the domination of the muslims. althaugh during the mongol invasion most of these folks been beheaded due to their comparetive skills in archery and horse back to the mongols. the famouse Iranian story says: when the mongol's khan after long battles finally captured Skistan and sow the hight of their men and women, he was furiouse and because a mongol could not defeat a man from sistan on foot, he ordered that every skistani beheaded so that there be no stop for the mongols in persia and beyond. it was belived that people of eastern Iran and afghanistan were very tall, they are even paintings from classical era that proves that folklore's description of mongols were true. Even the Greeks told about the Scythians being very tall. by the time of the mongols the last of Scythians of the east were killed in south eastern Iran. If one reads the mongol invasion of persia, you will learn that the mongols were defeated by khwarazmian army twice only in Sistan of Iran, because the Skistanis still practiced their ancesstral lifestyle untill that time.
Cattle raids were also a big deal in Ireland. In fact, that was one of the primary ways that the Irish conducted warfare in general. One of the most important stories in Irish mythology is actually about a cattle raid & its consequences, called the "Táin Bó Cuailgne" or Cattle Raid of Cooley
Since they called themselves Saka and some of them lived in the area of the Taklamakan basin, were the mummies found in the desert tombs Saka (aka Scythians)? There were elaborate burials of people who had light skin and red hair, and brought horse-pulled carts to the area. They wore plaid wool, and wool felt hats, and boots.
I think those were Tocharians, they are known for their desert tombs and mummies. They spoke an Indo-European isolate language, but weren't Scythians. They lived around the same area though, and probably came into contact with eachother.
Didn't they DNA test those mummies and find out they were the last remaing Ancient North eurasians before they were btfo'd by east asians like in siberia.
@@BossaliniFiveO Scythians were Indo-Iranian, but Tocharians were not. They were from completely different branches and had distinct linguistic dissimilarities. Eventually, however, I think they grew closer to each other.
@@eztvlight1202 The word KÖR means circle in Hungarian. The word KÖRÖS in Hungarian means a property of circular things. There is such a river, called KÖRÖS because it describes large circular arches in its course before the rivers were regulated. KÓRUS means chorus in Hungarian. According to linguists, it is a Greek word that came into the Hungarian language through Latin transmission. In Greek the word was KOROS, and meant a circle dance. The Hungarian word KÖRÖS, on the other hand, is of Finno-Ugric origin, according to linguists. Are you sure?
Well done! I thoroughly enjoyed the documentary! Please excuse my following statement as it is a reply to a comment made by dimitriardoux on Christopher Beckwith's book. I'm all for steppe cultures getting the credit they deserve, but I'm against giving credit where credit is not due. While I've read Christopher Beckwith's book and don't doubt his knowledge on language, that's about where my acknowledgment of this book ends. The rest consists of wildly speculative theories which he presents as facts. He seems to take advantage of the fact that not many scholars hold professional degrees on Scythian culture due to the lack of literate sources, ensuring there aren't many who would take the time to refute his claims. Even the title of the book, 'Scythian Empire,' is misleading, as he doesn't make an effort to explain if and how the Scythians actually had an 'empire'. His theories rely solely on word similarities, from which he extrapolates far-fetched ideas. This approach is unprofessional, to say the least, and not suited for a historian. He essentially claims that the Scythians invented everything from monotheism to Buddhism and even pants (!) , all while demonstrating a serious lack of historical knowledge, such as the chronology of the Egyptian and Persian Empires, as well as the content of works by Herodotus and Diogenes Laertius. In conclusion, his book is a conglomeration of wild claims and theories based on a few Scythian words. Therefore, this hardly qualifies as a scholarly approach.
It's quite clear from this comment that you haven't read his book and you lack some understanding of how PIE languages and are studied. The comparative method is the basis on which the study of these languages is based. I grant you it's not only that but so does Beckwith in his book and he references the supporting evidence for each of his hypotheses bases on papers of normal lexical/phonetic changes and when there is little evidence he does point this out. Additionally when you claim he lacks knowledge on historical chronology you should be able to give a concrete example of what he gets wrong. Same for the content of Herodotus and Diogenes which I have personally reviewed quite in depth and in multiple translations and languages. You seem quite dismissive and reductionist without actually being able to point out a single actual discrepancy in his work. And if you are well read on the topic you should know that even non controversial scholars like Barry Cunliffe would disagree with the shallow view presented in this video, not even to speak about the actual inaccuracies rampant throughout. I still like it because there is not much content speaking about these cultures and their massive impact so the more videos the better, but attacking Beckwith while praising this "documentary" is kind of absurd. 😅
@@dimitriradoux You actually admitted that he based his theories solely on linguistic 'evidence,' nothing more, which for a historian (not a linguist) is controversial to say the least. I will give you examples of his lack of historical knowledge. He says that the Scythians had the world's first empire. Aside from the fact that the term 'empire' is ludicrous, he seems to have no knowledge of chronology since, for example, Egyptians and Akkadians had great empires long before the dates which he states that the Scythian 'empire' existed. Furthermore, his theory that Anacharis was the first Greek (?) philosopher is absurd both chronologically and historically. You accuse me of being unable to point out a single actual discrepancy of his work; how about those that I already mentioned, like the fact that the Scythians invented monotheism and Buddhism? Another non-professional attitude of Christopher Beckwith is his constant attack on other 'mainstream' scholars throughout his book. I quite like that you are referring to Barry Cunliffe as a non-controversial scholar, since it means that you acknowledge Christopher Beckwith is indeed a very controversial scholar. Barry Cunliffe is an actual historian who does not stretch out wild theories; he just presents the hard evidence. And since I quite recently read his book on the Scythians, your claim about this video just makes it clear that it is you who haven't read his book. This video is basically a summary of his book, but according to you, Barry Cunliffe himself would disagree with many 'inaccuracies' of this video. Please, my friend, be my guest, point out all the inaccuracies that Cunliffe would disagree with.
@@balkanmountains2-3131 Please refrain from lying as that is not what I said ;) , and yes linguistics are a big part, not the only of Beckwith's argument and history in general! History actually looks at historic thus textual thus linguistic evidence, it's literally the study of texts! And no Beckwith does not say the Scythians had the worlds first empire ;), page 15 of just the prologue "However, the father of Astyages, Cyaxares, had already overthrown the mighty Assyrian Empire. The Mede realm take over by Cyrus - an event also recorder in Akkadian Sources -" Does it seem like he lacks the context or historical knowledge? And Anacharsis is a very early philosopher from about the same time as Thales of Miletus so I really don't see what is wrong with that argument, he is pre Heraclitus and Pythagoras. Did you make this documentary is that the issue? Because maybe you should start again at the beginning before the Scythians with getting even the Corded Ware's relationship to the Yamnaya right, which with the latest genetic evidence is clearly shown to emerge from the Yamnaya mixing with the late Neolithic Europeans in the steppe border zone rather then "merging with the Corded Ware" 😂 and no I will not spend my time watching this video again, I am a bit to busy for that 😉
@@mr.purple1779 What 😅 , really what are you even replying too? What point are you trying too make 🤷♂️? Btw just Tocharian is fine otherwise you should also say Indo-Iranian.
@@mr.purple1779not entirely accurate but yes Tocharian is thought to be one of the oldest Indo European languages sub group to split off and yes the so called Anatolian languages of which Hittite is one seem to have split off even earlier. Still do not understand why that is relevant to the discussion at hand though 😅🤷♂️
Love the effort, just a bit too many inaccuracies and outdated superficial views. Might want to look a bit deeper into newer linguistics work by Beckwith or more recent genetic evidence. If you want someone to have a look at your script on a next attempt let me know, I am all for these steppe cultures finally getting the recognition they deserve!
Beckwith's book is full of innacuracies. He claims that the Scythians invented feudalism, monotheism, Buddhism, the first empire, the Chinese dynasties and pretty much everything in the world without giving any explanation or reputable sources to support this 'evidence'.
@@balkanmountains2-3131 That statement needs some actual backing my friend, Christopher Beckwith’s scholarship is undeniable and especially regarding this topic in the more eastern part of the steppe cultural influence sphere. So please elaborate why you think so with actual examples regarding the subject at hand “the Scythians”.

@@dimitriradoux For some weird reason TH-cam keeps deleting my replies to you. I posted my reply on the comment section where I back my previous statement, if you'd like to read it.
Let me state this. The US media is claiming Tartars are the indigenous people of Crimea. The oldest people living in that area, that is still there today, are the Greeks. The video stated, They colonized this area, even before the Scythians reach that area, which I thought predated the Greeks. This is why cities in teh area have Pol in the end of their name. it comes from the greek word for city, polis. We see it in Sevastopol, Mariupol, Meritipol
Crimean Tatars are mainly of Anatolian-Balkan origin, apparently from the Bospor kingdom. So these US media don't fool you. Tatars live throughout the forest-steppe strip from the Black Sea region to Altai. If the Crimean are mainly Aatolian, then the Volga Tatars have an average of 60-80% of the Iron Age steppe + Altaic steppe. Which makes them the oldest inhabitants of this all vast area.
Herodotus wrote that the Scythians lived from the Danube to the Don, which is Ukraine. He described the rivers of Ukraine, Scythian plowmen and farmers. Most mounds and finds were found in Ukraine. This video is to justify Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
@@Echinacea_purpurea Lol, what are you talking about? You are highly projecting. This is a video about ancient history of an ancient nomadic peoples that once existed in these lands. Ukrainians and Russians are not mentioned (both are medieval nations, not ancient). Not even once.
@@winterwolf34 The Scythians are the Greek name for the Skolots with whom they lived next door, the ancestors of Ukrainians, not Asian nomads. Why call those who were not Scythians? Not all nomads were Scythians. The Scythians lived settled or nomadic for short distances. There are many of them in Ukraine: from the Black Sea to Kiev. The Scythians are part of the history of Europe, not Asia.
Uralic languages were most probably spoken by the Scythians. The Scythian finds, for example, are much better interpreted through Hungarian language and tradition.
Interestingly enough, modern reconstructions of Scythian appearance feature mostly Asian-looking people wearing intricate clothes. But archeological findings (like jewelry or decorations of Scythians) depict simple-dressed bearded people looking more like typical Germanic/Celtic/Slavic warriors.

I'm new to all this but I wonder if there's a connection to the Gutiens. Tried to go south, didn't work out, went north? Or some relation to Amorites or whereverthey came from...they sound similar in some ways. Or I'm just talking out of my butt.
There's not really any connection, to be honest. The Gutians and the Amorites were people of the Bronze Age Near East, with a completely different culture, language, and way of life compared to the Scythians. The only common thing that the Scythians and the Amorites share is that they were both nomadic peoples and were considered 'barbarians' by their respective neighbors.
No, you're not. Peoples' migrations, languages and histories are fascinating but confusing and information-intensive. Books and videos by anthropologist/historian Dr. Robert Sepehr helped me understand, although I'm still learning.

Except... As as someone pointed out below... 'Sithian' is just a GREEK WORD for ' one who runs'.. ''Sarmatia' is a GREEK WORD that means 'to flow'.... 'Sithian' or 'Sarmatia' are not names which some cultural group or nation identified themselves by... The gold trinkets you often see labeled "Scythian" were actually made by Greek colonists,excavated from a Greek colony on the Black Sea.. I always stress thoroughly researching [word origins]
I'm more in line with them calling themselves "Sakai" which is the same proto Germanic root for "sky". They were the people of the sky. Many Christians claim they were named after Isaac. If Isaac was an actual historical figure I'd say it's likely the other way around.

Turkic wasn’t a thing till long after the Scythians were gone. Scythians spoke an eastern iranian language they think. They also were described as blonde haired and blue eyed. “Herodotus- Histories, Book 4 Secrion 6.” Turkic people are just a mixture of mongolians, Iranians etc.
The greek letter ''x'' often used for names of those Ancient western & eastern Iranian cultures should be pronounced as ''Khsh'' . For example ''Roxolani'' was probably pronounced as ''Rokhsholani'' in Sarmatian languages. ''Roxana'' a sogdian name refered by the greeks was pronounced as ''Rokhshana'' by the natives in the region & even today & the famouse persian king Xerxes (Xer'xes) from the Medo-Persian language was ''Khshyer khsha'' or in modern persian ''Khshayar sha''. If we follow this pattern then Targitias sons names would have been Lipakhsha, Arpakhsha, Cloakhsha.
I'm a Pars(Persian) and one of my friends is a 6 6 red-headed Scythian originally from Ossetia(Ossetians are one of the Iraninc people and the Aryan cousins of the Persians). If you visit the Perspolis(Parseh) in Shiraz and Bisotun in Kermanshah(both are very historical cities in Iran) you'll see the petroglyph of Scythians with pointy helmets. Interestingly, while on the Perspolis walls, they're seen hand in hand with their Persian cousins, on the Bisotun wall their leader is captured and captivated amongst others because they rebelled against King Dariush The Great(a lesson for some of the Kurds and Azaris who are making the same mistake thinking this time somehow it would be different). Anyways, as a Pars, I love my Scythian cousins especially those who live in Ossetia, I think about you every once in a while and I hope one day I get the chance to visit and I highly encourage you to come and visit Iran; after all, we're all Iranic people.

Greeks of the Northern Black Sea Region often commissioned Skithian jewelers to create pieces in the Greek/Hellenistic style. Eventually, elements of Greek art were more generally adopted by the Skithians, probably to increase the appeal to Greeks and Hellenized people of the region. (I use Greek spelling because these names of places, peoples, etc., came down to us via Greek, and only much later were Latinized by the Romans.)
Scythians build a society of peaceful mutually beneficial coexistence of ger,manic, baltic, slavic, finno-ugric and iranic tribes, creating the richest society on earth, free from slavery and serfdom and strong enough to beat any invaders. Scythia was a true golden age of european civilization, neither Rome nor Greece.

thanks for the upload...one of the few objective videos about scythians so far...the only thing i disagree with is,what considers the way of life and traditions,even place names and the nomadic lifestyle...theyre all siberian,step,ural,altay prototurkic...how come they should speak an indo european language? i strongly believe that their language was uralic,maybe altaic,a mixture of protohunnic voc mixed with turkic,mongolic,even gothic words...one day will come and the world will accept,that kurgan,yoghurt,kimiz,their language was closer to the ural altay language...🙏
Sounds like you are simply a Turk who wants to project their own national pride onto the Scythians. Based on inscriptions and ancient texts we know their language was iranic (indo euro)
@@sknmttn i wouldnt be so sure...they are the forefathers of the huns,and later göktürks...id rather say,they must have been multilingual,their mothertongue prototurkic/uralic,but spoke most probably protogreek,indo european,persian as well...

The word KÖR means circle in Hungarian. The word KÖRÖS in Hungarian means a property of circular things. There is such a river, called KÖRÖS because it describes large circular arches in its course before the rivers were regulated. KÓRUS means chorus in Hungarian. According to linguists, it is a Greek word that came into the Hungarian language through Latin transmission. In Greek the word was KOROS, and meant a circle dance. The Hungarian word KÖRÖS, on the other hand, is of Finno-Ugric origin, according to linguists. Are you sure?

Meaning that the western-Iranian-speaking branch ,no matter how further in the eastern borders , or western borders , belonged to a certain cultural past that separated them from the eastern-speaking branch , each branch followed certain religions, certain cultural frames , certain shared history etc etc , but due to the expantion ,they each got influenced genetically by their representative involvements , its like a British and an Australian , over time they each pick from their own involvement and their neighboring, but they are still past of a same ethno-cultural origin .

Dear editor III Where did Alexander get so many soldiers if not from the Scythians or the Sarmatians. That is, the Serbs. From Sa-bratu or relatives, brothers. His uncle (where he learned to hunt and fight) is from the area of southern Serbia. He got the horse from his brother Vandal. Pela was actually Bela meaning White, just as the Pelazgi are actually Belazgi - white people. Just as Arzavi or Rzavi people are actually red / brown haired people. Alexander fell into Greek intrigues after conquering the Greek cities and was used by his mother to make war with the Persians. The original Sa-brat plan was the liberation of the tribes in western Turkey today, which he achieved with the victory on the Granik river, which means border. In the land of Mysia, which comes from the word - Medja what means border too. The same as Moesia was in Romea. Where the Sa-brats lived. They all became Greeks after Alexander's conquests. The Lydian tribe-from the word Lidi what means - people, the Phrygian tribe-or Brigi, Bregi from word Breg which represents a mountain. People from the Balkan Mountains who came to Anatolia after the fall of the Hittites who were defeated by the People from the Sea - again from the Balkan and Apennine tribes.
Very interesting but I must make one correction. Brigi comes from the goddes Brigid/Freya. Phrygia is the same name as Frisia. The big question is, where did they establish first?
No, we don't have a clue about the Median language since there are no accounts, but it was probably the same as Persian a west-Iranian language, while scythian and east-iranuss and their languages split from the weste-Iranians some 4000 yres ago.

Fate of the Scythians. CONCEPT OF BULGAR ETHNOGENESIS IN THE 2-Y HALF OF XX - EARLY XXI CENTURY (to the 85th anniversary of E.P. Kazakov) According to the concept of E.P. Kazakov himself [2007b, p. 118], the Bulgarian nomads came to the territory of the Middle Volga region, not occupied at that time by any population, in the middle of the VIII century, from the Volga-Don interfluve, rising up the * We consider the point of view of G.I. Matveeva as a hypothesis, since during the time that has passed since the publications of its main provisions, not only approaches to Novinkovsky antiquities have largely changed, but also the interpretation of the features of these monuments. It is significant that the name for these archaeological objects did not survive in the literature: the terms "Novinkovsky-type monuments," "Novinkovsky monuments," rarely - "Novinkovsky archaeological culture" are used equivalently. on the right bank of the Volga, while in the area of modern Saratov they were in contact with the Burtas * for some time, as a result of which Turbaslin-Imenkov * * (Late Sarmatian) features appeared in their funeral rite: long grave pits, sometimes with beatings and shoulders, as well as sacrificial complexes from the head, legs and skins of a horse, folded in a special way * * *. Here they came into contact with the Early Magyar (Kushnarenkov ) tribes that came from the Urals (i.e. Sargatians East Sarmatians). From the 2nd half of the 9th century. they also interacted with the Kama-Ural population, and then, from the 1st half of the 10th century, with the Volga and Kama Finns [Kazakov, 1982, s. 37; 1992, p. 230-254], having formed a mestizo ethnic group, is basically Turkic-speaking, but with a high share of nomadic and forest Ugric, which at the beginning of the 10th century was the main ethnocultural group in this territory. According to him, already from the 7th-8th centuries. in the Middle Volga region, Ugric tribes (the Kushnarenkov culture of the Urals) roamed, which actively supplanted the Imenkov population and ultimately forced him to leave these places. Prior to this point, in the main points of view, E.P. Kazakova did not contradict the concept of Khalikov - Khuzin, but the further course of his thoughts caused criticism of both researchers [Kazakov, 1982, p. 32, approx. 28 (from the editor); Khuzin, 2011, p. 29-30]. The essence of the views of E.P. Kazakov lies in two theses. First: the scientist believes that the Magyars/Ugras took part in the initial stage of the cultural genesis of the Bulgarian population in the 9th century. did not completely leave the Middle Volga region, subsequently (until the beginning of the 13th century) a considerable and at the same time quite active component of the Bulgarian ethnic group * * * *. This ethnic component, in his opinion, is expressed in archaeological sites of four stages: early Kushnarenkovsky (2nd half of the VI-VII century), Manyak (VIII century), Khusainovsky (late VIII-IX century), Tankeevsky (last third - 1st half of the X century) * * * * *. subsequently with the X century. the Ugric presence was expressed in the materials of the post-Petro-Grom and Chiyalik cultures [Kazakov, 2007a, p. 31-45. 51-64]. Moreover, E.P. Kazakov [2007b, p. 118-119] claims that by the end of the 9th - beginning of the 10th centuries "the future central part of Volga Bulgaria, where its metropolitan centers of Bulgar, Suvar and Bilyar later appeared, was largely" Volga Hungary, "which was the result of the ousting of the Ugric from the Urals as a result of the confrontation between the Magyars and the Pechenegs in the 80s years IX century. The second thesis: the early Bulgars until the 2nd-3rd quarter of the 10th century. did not have constant settlement, i.e. were mainly nomads and, moreover, despite the adoption of the Muslim religion by the Bulgarian elite in 922, remained pagan for the most part. Their settlements begin to actively arise only in the second half of this century [Kazakov, 1992, p. 300]. According to E.P. Kazakov [1992, p. 326], the semi-nomadic lifestyle and pagan religious views were preserved among the Bulgars until the 60s. X century, when, under pressure from the Pechenegs, immigrants from Kuban region - the descendants of the "black Bulgarians" of Batbay, move to the Kazan Volga region. In addition, in the IX-X centuries. small groups of Turkic-speaking nomads - Pechenegs and Guzes - pour into the Bulgarian environment. These two theses of the concept of E.P. Kazakov became key both in understanding the historical development of the Bulgarian material culture of the entire pre-Mongol period, * A.Kh. Khalikov [2011, p. 203-205] localized the Burtas (tribe) in Posurye (modern Penza region). * * A.Kh. Khalikov [2011, p. 172] determined the ethnic group of the population that left monuments such as the Turbas-Linsky burial ground, Turkic-Ugric. * * * In his early works, E.P. Kazakov considered such sacrificial complexes characteristic of Ugric. * * * * This assumption was not completely rejected by A.Kh. Khalikov [2011, p. 193], however, considering that this fact was not significant in the processes of Bulgarian ethnogenesis, since most of them left the territory of the Lower Prikamye and the Southern Urals no later than 835-836. * * * * * This periodization of E.P. Kazakov is disputed by other researchers [Matveeva, 2007, p. 75-86]. so in the reconstruction of the development of society. Some of these ideas were later developed by Ufa and Perm archaeologists.
The problem of the formation of the Volga Bulgars has now acquired a new sound related to the research of the Samara archaeologist D.A. Stashenkov, who is engaged in the pre-Bulgarian era - monuments of the Novinkovsky type and Imenkovsky culture. The publications of this author, the first of which appeared in the late 1990s, showed that the early stage of the history of the Bulgars is not as unambiguous as it was imagined in the last third of the 20th century, and is largely related to the events that took place in the Khazar Khaganate as a whole. According to D.A. Stashenkov, the processes of ethnogenesis in the territory of the Middle Volga region were multivariant, not linear and occurred discretely, not continually. The scientist believes that the alien population from the western territories (Kyiv culture), multi-ethnic in its core, from the first centuries CE groups settled the territory of the Samara Volga region, and later - the southern part of the Central and Western Zakamya, mainly the basin of the Bolshoi Cheremshan, where monuments of the Sidelkino-Timyashevo type were identified [Stashenkov, 2005, p. 45; Rudenko, 2014, p. 307-324], coming into contact with the Sarmatians, who in the IV century, leave this region under pressure from the Huns [Stashenkov, 2007, p. 77]. Certain groups of this population later became part of the developed Imenkovsky culture, the beginning of the formation of which the scientist refers to the III-V centuries. The motley ethnic array of Imenkovites with the predominance of the Slavic component significantly differed in material culture from the population of monuments such as Sidelkino-Timyashevo and at the same time had quite a lot of expressive regional features. This determines the early stage of Imenkovsky culture, monuments of which are recorded mainly on the territory of the Samara Volga region [Stashenkov, 2005, p. 46]. D.A. Stashenkov [2010b, p. 116] claims that monuments of the Lbishchensky type (early Imenkovsky according to G.I. Matveeva [1998, p. 87-96]) and settlements of the Sidelkino-Timyashevo type and a number of others coexisted even in the 4th century, and the peculiarities of their material culture are explained by different initial migration territories, mainly Western. The late stage of the Imenkov culture - V-VII centuries. developed in the Samara Luka, Kazan Volga region and in the adjacent regions of the Kama region. It is characterized by the "eastern" influence, primarily of the nomadic cultures of the Ugric circle (Kushnarenkovskaya) reformatting the appearance of the material culture of the Imenkovites. But at the same time, some groups of the previous population could also continue to exist at a new stage of cultural genetics. This point of view differs from the views of E.P. Kazakov [1996, p. 48; 1998, p. 110-111], which limits the existence of the Imenkov culture to the 2nd half of the VI-VII centuries, and connects it with immigrants from the Caspian region (Jetyassar culture) -( i.e. Central Asian Scythians - East Alan - Wusun, Kangju) who came into contact on the territory of Western and Eastern Zakamye with the Late Sarmatian population (Turbaslin culture). In his opinion, it was the Ugric nomads who forced the Imenkovites in the 2nd half of the 7th century. to leave the territory of their habitat, which then was empty for almost more than 100 years. D.A. Stashenkov [2013, p. 80], like E.P. Kazakov, does not consider the Novinkovsky monuments of Samara Luke to be Bulgarian, since they, in his opinion, were "a conglomerate of various ethnic groups that, as part of Avar or Khazar detachments, were on the border lands of the Byzantine Empire until the middle of the 7th century AD.." This mixed population of the Khazar Khaganate * had no direct connection with the Prabolgars and Bulgarians who migrated to the Middle Volga in the middle - 2nd half of the VIII century, the traces of whose presence in the region are the intake burials of the Kaibel mounds, the Uren-P burial mound, as well as the soil Avtozavodsky * There is extensive literature on various aspects of the study of Novinkovo monuments, for example, periodization and chronology [Lifanov, 2005, pp. 25-40]. Avtozavodskaya necropolis. Actually, the scientist considers only the Bobrovsky burial to be related to Bulgarian monuments [Stashenkov, 2013, p. 81]. D.A. Stashenkov divides the funeral monuments of nomads on the Middle Volga into several groups: mound-dirt Novinkovsky, which appeared at the end of the 7th century. on Samara Luka, which ceased to exist as a result of the campaign of the Arab commander Mervan ibn Muhammad in 737, or, in a wider dating, in the middle of the VIII century; as well as Berezovsky and Shilovsky mounds [Stashenkov, Turetsky, 1999, p. 297; Stashenkov, 2008, p. 95]. The next group: burial mounds of the Simbirsk Volga region - Kai-Belsky and Uren-P of the 2nd half of the VIII - IX century. The third group is in the Pre-Volga and Central Zakamye, almost synchronous with the previous one: More-Tarkhansky and More-Tigansky *. At the same time, in addition to nomads in the Simbirsk Volga region, groups of the settled population close to the tribes of Priochye also lived at the same time [Stashenkov, 2013, p. 83]. IX century. with the possibility of the beginning of the 10th century - this is how the author dates separate burials of the Magyar circle of the Samara Volga region. He believes that three subgroups can be distinguished, differing in the details of the funeral rite, having gender and age characteristics and geographical localization, although in general, with a number of reservations, D.A. Stashenkov [2013, p. 85] recognizes their monoculture. The researcher's conclusions about the nature of the occupation of the inhabitants of the region in this era are important. He identifies it from finds in villages and their archaeological context, synchronizing with the functioning time of burial grounds. So, for the third group, D.A. Stashenkov notes individual ceramic finds of the late VIII - IX centuries. on the Imenkovsky settlements of the Simbirsk Volga region (Abramovsky village, settlement Chertov Gorodok and Novoslobodskoye * *), which Yu.A. Semykin and G.I. Matveeva considered evidence of contacts between the Imenkovites and Novinkovtsy. Such finds were found in villages on Samara Luka: Sevryukaevsky-P, Novy Put, Malaya Ryazan^P of the same period, and where fragments of Black Sea amphorae were found [Elm, Nerushin, 2010, p. 132]. By the 9th century D.A. Stashenkov [2008, p. 95-96; 2010a, p. 118-119, Fig. 1-8] refers to similar finds on the monuments of the Samara Right Bank - the Proletarian settlement and the village of the Power of Labor. On a number of settlements in this region, artifacts have been identified that, in his opinion, are associated with the Slavic Romenoborshev culture. It was believed that until the middle of the VIII century. there were no traces of nomads migrating to the Middle Volga at the settlements, but the new materials received by D.A. Stashenkov in 2010-2019 changed this assumption. We are talking about the Zhigulevsky burial ground and the village of the same name in the Stavropol district of the Samara region. These objects are synchronous with the monuments of the Novinkovsky circle, but the ethnicity of the population that left them, according to the researcher, was clearly different [Stashenkov, 2013, p. 81, Fig. 2, 3; 2014, p. 109]. After the first seasons of excavation of these monuments, D.A. Stashenkov [2010a, p. 119] assumed that the Slavs who served the Novinkovsky groups of the population left this settlement, and the latter, in turn, performed the "task of protecting the northern borders of the Khazar Khaganate" and were relocated here by the Khazar administration. Excavations 2013-2017. gave reason to the researcher to clarify the date of the Zhigulevsky village: VII-X centuries. - and prove his connection with the nearby burial ground where the dead were buried according to the cremation rite * * *. Expressive material was obtained from the burials, * The late part of the Bolsho-Tigansky burial ground dates from the beginning of the 10th century. * * The settlement Chertov town is located on the left bank of the Volga, the rest - on the right. * * * Burial grounds with a cremation ceremony are known on Samara Luka, however, in this case, without the installation of ceramic urn-vessels [Myshkin, 2013, p. 73-118]. Corpse burning is characteristic of the Imenkovsky burial grounds of the Kazan Volga region [Matveeva, 2003, p. 29].
including, in addition to ceramic vessels, metal products and glass jewelry - beads (Fig. 3). The village and the burial ground functioned simultaneously and represented a single archaeological complex [Stashenkov, 2014, p. 88, 109; Kochkina, Stashenkov, 2018a, p. 38-39]. In 2018, it was established that the Zhigulevsky-P burial ground was biritual - along with cremation, the multimedia burial was studied, which was part of the group of burials of the VIII century. [Stashenkov, Kochkina, 2019a, p. 22]. This once again reinforced the researcher's idea of the heterogeneous composition of the population of Samara Luke in the Khazar era. On the specifics of archaeological materials of the 9th century. Samara Luke gives an idea of the village of Power of Labor in the Volga region of the Samara region, where the remains of buildings and ceramic material are recorded, including a circle-boat vessels close to the Nevolins [Kochkina, Sta-shenkov, 2018a, p. 40; Stashenkov, Kochkina, 2019b, p. 23-24]. The predominance of the nomadic Ugric component among the population of the Samara Volga region at that time, it would seem, ruled out the possibility of the existence of settled settlements, but new discoveries denied this. As far as it was typical for the era and the region as a whole, it is too early to judge, but it can be noted that the habitation of Ugras and Imenkovites in one settlement on the Middle Volga was recorded archaeologically (II Tetyushsky settlement) [Rudenko, 2013, p. 58-74]. Based on the analysis of the received material, D.A. Stashenkov concludes that settlements of the Khazar time appear in the Middle Volga region back in the 7th century and have a different character - from seasonal sites to permanent settlements. They are left ethnically heterogeneous by the population, connected partly with the Saltovo world (i.e Saltovo-Mayaki culture Khazars, Alans, and Bulgars), partly with the Slavs and Ugri, and together they make up at least four heterogeneous groups of settlements that are not connected with each other. The scientist notes that not a single one with the Imenkovtsy Fig. 3. Zhiguli burial ground. Excavations by D.A. Stashenkov. Finds from burials: 1 - burial No. 18; 2-4 - burials No. 11, 13; 5-11 - burial No. 19 (according to: [Kochkina, Stashenkov, 2018a, p. 39; Stashenkov, Kochkina, 2019a, p. 22]) none of these groups were associated [Stashenkov, 2010a, p. 120]. The Volga Bulgars, as follows from the logic of the researcher, were formed from the population that left the Bolshe-Tar-Khan burial ground, approximately according to the scheme indicated in the works of E.P. Kazakov. Conclusion Thus, the concept of E.P. Kazakov completed the formation of a general vision of the early stage of the history of the Volga Bulgars, going beyond the autochthonous paradigm postulated by the Khalikov-Khuzin concept, defining the leading force in the development of ethnogenetic processes - the migration of different groups of the population, mainly nomadic, from the territory of the Khazar Khaganate consistently, "waves" reaching the territory of the Middle Volga region. However, the emphasis on the linear nature of the culturogenesis process led the discussion of this problem to substantiate mainly the ethnic components of the emerging Bulgarian ethnic group. One of the options for a new consideration of the problem is the attempt of D.A. Stashen-kov to determine the nature of both external and internal processes of migration and adaptation of aliens of the pre-Bulgarian stage in the Middle Volga region. He showed on archaeological materials that the processes of culturogenesis were multivariant and that in addition to sequentially changing one population to another, with a corresponding change of material culture objects, which in this case acquired the meaning of chronological markers, there was a coexistence of groups of the population, different in their traditions and having distinctive features of life and culture, as well as those inhabitants who continued to live in local natural refugia at that time, when most of the tribesmen who came with them were either assimilated or left these places. Another important point from the discoveries of D.A. Stashenkov is worth noting: settling skills were inherent in almost all aliens who appeared in the VII-X centuries. on Samara Luka, and they had them without the special influence of the settled Imenkov population, the basis of whose life was a complex economy, where in addition to fishing and cattle breeding, as well as agriculture, developed [Elm, 2008a-b] We can assume that the concept of E.P. Kazakov and the new concept of D.A. Stashenkov are not only a continuation of the development of the scientific revolution of the 2nd half of the 20th century. in medieval archeology of the Middle Volga region, expanding the territorial framework of the birth of the Volga-Bulgarian ethnic group, and a new stage in the historical and cultural understanding of the process of forming an ethnic map of the 2nd half of the 1st millennium AD. They revealed the connection and even conditioning of many processes of ethnogenesis with the impact on them not only of the nearest peoples on the basis of ethnic or cultural proximity, but also in general the ethnocultural environment that has developed in the space of the entire Khazar state. Within the framework of this concept, the complexity of the mechanisms of formation of certain elements of traditional culture during assimilation and acculturation processes was also proved. Obviously, we are currently witnessing the development of a new discourse of the study of cultural genesis in the Middle Volga region in the 2nd half of the 1st millennium AD - the beginning of the 2nd millennium AD.

Thanks for using accurate pronunciation, sounding the C/K in Skythian. I augh everytime I hear a British speaker call them Sithians.

So the earliest scythians as the Scot’s and picts stated is true. With their burial cairns and Circular motifs not to mention the picts tattoos. Scots being also from Ireland. Interesting. Ofcourse on their travels mixing with Germanic and Celtic peoples as well as others. Would explain the fighting styles of the picts and Scot’s early on. Although I wonder about any exaggeration about the sacrificing.
I think that "Scythian" was a term that used for nomadic Asian warriors.The Scythians was a confedaration like the European Huns.Proto-Turks or Altaic peoples,nomadic Iranians,Uralic peoples,Caucasians maybe proto Slavs.Probably the Royal families or Kings were Iranian speaking peoples(Like the Huns elites were speaking Turkic language but Huns was becoming by so many ethnicities).So its wrong the say that Scythians were Iranian,Turk,Slav etc.
Partially yes, Scythians, like the Huns, Avars, Hungarians were an alliance and not a single tribe, so certianly ethnically they had it all (pre-IE mixed in). On the other hand no Germans, Slavs etc. had cultural, linguistic continuity with them. Only the Hungarian legends claim their ancestors were the Scythians. Only the Hungarian fight tactics were identical with the Scythians, only the Hungarian religion was similar to the Scythian (tree of life etc.). Hungarian have no specific word for wolfs and deers, the Hungarian language uses adjective to refer to these anymals that were considered gods - deer: antler-ed (animal), wolf: tailed (animal) Turkic people have their right in this too, so Scythians were probably the common ancestors. So if something sounds like a duck, walks like a duck, looks like a duck, then it IS a DUCK.
@@user_18789 I think wrong to say that Turkic People are east asian.Euroasian or Siberian is more accurate.Language is gramaticly similar to Yenisey Languages(also has some loanwords from this languages) and Ural Languages(have really much Proto Turkic loanwords).Mongollian also similar but different.Pontic Steppes history is really complex man u know.I repeat myself but really hard to say all Scythians were that like Turkic,Iranian,Uralic etc.Yes,Dna shows something but not everything.The Andronovo culture is the point.This culture known as the area that first Iranian language was spoken but i think that Asian,Indo European and Siberian people were mixed here
@@freebozkurt9277 I agree but not only Hungarians.Too many Turkic treditions and beliefs are similar to Scythians.If all Scythians were Iranian speakers or something like that(I dont agree that idea)probably they all almost have became Altaic-Uralic during the Hun invasions over the Euroasian step area or before.Before because of the Turkic speaker population increased in Scythian Confedaration u know what i mean.So yes.Scythians are ancestor of many Turks and Hungarians.And in my opinion that s the another reason why all Turkic language speakers dont look similar.
Herodotus wrote that the Scythians lived from the Danube to the Don, which is Ukraine. He described the rivers of Ukraine, Scythian plowmen and farmers. Most mounds and finds were found in Ukraine. This video is to justify Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Gita mentions the drink in chapter 9 It is equivalent to the Iranian haoma(alcohol drink)The relationship between humans and the deity was one of transaction, with Agni (the sacrificial fire) taking the role of messenger between the two. Strong traces of a common Indo-Iranian religion remain visible, especially in the Soma cult and the fire worship and animal sacrifice is also part of early vedic tribes According to historians and anthropologists lived in colonial British period in india in their works Malabar manual by William Logan (1887) and castes and tribes in south india by edgar therlsun (1909) which eloborate the details and life style of more then 300 castes in south india clearly mentioned thiya caste in north malabar kerala have some european ancestry and it is the only hindhu caste mentioned in Eurasian category by edgar therlsun in his book caste and tribes of south india (1909) and Logan States that " There are, in North Malabar, many individuals, whose fathers were European. Writing, in 1887, concerning the Tiyan comniunity, Mr. Logan states* that “the women are not as a rule excommunicated if they live with Europeans, and the consequence is that there has been among them a large admixture of European blood, and the caste itself has been materially raised in the social scale. In appearance some of the women are almost as fair as Europeans.” On this point, the Report of the Malabar Marriage Commission, 1894, states that “in the early days of British rule, the Tiyan women incurred no social disgrace by consorting with Europeans, and, up to the last generation, if the Sudra girl could boast of her Brahmin lover, the Tiyan girl could show more substantial benefits from her alliance with a white man of the ruling race. Happily the progress of education, and the growth of a wholesome public opinion, have made shameful the position of a European’s concubine ; and both races have thus been saved from a mode of life equally demoralizing to each.”
Saka is the actual name of the Iranian tribes that made up the Northern Saka as well as Southern Saka tribes. Sakas also had smaller sub tribes scattered throughout the Iranian (Persian) empire. Sakas like all Iranian tribes ( Sarmations, Tocharians,are Indo-European tribes and speak Indo-European languages. Sakas have absolutely NO RELATIONSHIP to the current Sakha people who presently live in Siberia and Altai mountains of Russia and Kazakhstan. The Siberian Sakha are moongloid Turkic people. Today you can find the dependents of the Iranian Saka tribes in present day Iran and Russia. The following Iranian populations of Alans, Ossetians living in southern Russia and northern Georgia are the direct dependents of the Iranian Saka. All Iranian tribes originate from Europe where they used to live along the river Danube and over thousands of years they migrated eastward to present day Ukraine, Russia, Caucasus (Pontic Steppes) and Iran and further east all the way to China; a part of the Iranian population migrated to the present northern India and since the Europeans were the first to classify the languages they broadly categorized the Iranian languages as Indo-European. In my opinion, it would have been more accurate to classify the Iranian languages as the Aryan languages; or indo-Germanic languages. In most European or American colleges and universities who identify themselves based on their perceived Hellenic past, there i a great deal of reliance for the Greek explanations of the Iranian history. This may lead to inaccurate and self serving Greek explanations of the ancient world by the Greeks who neither shared the indo-European languages or cultures. Many of present day TH-camrs who have little or no training in the subject matters simply repeat what the Greeks or other TH-camrs have said using alternate terms and words with critical examination of assumptions or facts.
Dr. Robert Sepehr's diverse books and videos also cover this history, including immigration, languages, etc. are most fascinating. th-cam.com/video/XXL09iWJrfs/w-d-xo.html
The term Alan, widely known from historical literature, in Türkic means “Low-Landers”, “Plain People”, so there is little that can be connected with ethnicity unless the tribal affiliation can be established. The term gained ethnical connotations with the establishment of polities, centralized political alliances, and has as much ethnical meaning as the generic Scythians, nomads, or Wendeln - “Wanderers” - Vandals. The Alans that held the Daryal Pass, for example, were As-Tochar compact, hence the Georgian Ovses (Ases), Taulases (Mountain Ases), Digors (Tochars) and the like. For von Klaproth, Alans were a distinct ethnic group somehow affiliated with Ases, hence Alans > Ases > Ovs > Ossetes. As will be shown below, in the von Klaproth’s time, Ossete was a form used by the Russian expeditionary force for the Georgian Ovs.
The von Klaproth’s hypothesis suggested to identify Ossetes with the nomadic horse husbandry Scythians, it started as a global hypothesis that covered all aspects of the entire ethnicity and its entire history. The hypothesis remained notional for most of its existence, till the multidisciplinary evidence led to its shrinkage, eventually reducing it to a purely linguistic hypothesis.
They ruled India for several century too.... Most of them assimilated with native after accepting local beliefs and Buddhism..They brought their deitys too naming them as avlokiteshvar and arihants.
The thumbnail is an image created by Simeon Netchev, based on the forensic reconstruction of the skulls of the man and woman known as the 'royal couple,' found in the burial site Arzan 2 in the Tuva Republic in Russia. I discuss this topic from approximately 38:52 to 42:27 in the video. This image represents one of the few complete artistic facial reconstructions of a Scythian man and a Scythian woman that I have found on the internet. I would like to emphasize that there is no single 'white' look or phenotype. There are various features ranging from southern Mediterranean to Nordic and East Slavic. Even if there were a uniform 'white' appearance, as I mention in the video, genetic evidence indicates that the Scythians were a mixed people. The western Scythians bore more resemblance to eastern Europeans, while the eastern Scythians often resembled their nomadic neighbors further east. Furthermore, today, the region inhabited by the Scythians, is home to diverse populations beyond just 'white' people. It includes Russians, Ukrainians, Georgians, and Azeris but also Kazakhs, Altai people, Tuva people, Kalmyk people, and more.

@@historicaladventurevideos They would be considered caucasian as they have our markers mainly the blue/green eyes and red/blonde colored hair and pale skin, just like the ancient Iranians where the markers still exist in the more pure tribes(those not forced to mate with the Arabs through conquest) who still possess green/blue sometimes grey eyes and blonde/red hair and very fare skin. You get the same thing in Sicily who appear much darker in complexion with often dark brown or black hair and often brown eyes that is due to the Moors invasion of the region and forced mating between the two, they were not described this way by the Greeks and only took 80 years to totally alter their genetics.
@@DustinDonald-cz9ot There is no such thing as 'caucasian', this is an obsolete racial classification that is only used by Americans. Genetic mutations like the eye and hair colour that happened in the already 'white' people did not and never applied to all 'white' people. According to your theory, only 15-20% of modern Europe can be considered Caucasian. Furthermore, it is evident both from the ancient texts and the genetic evidence that most of the ancient Mediterranean peoples had brown hair and brown eyes.
@@historicaladventurevideosAnd yet, the picture looks rather eclectic, as if the depicted trio represented three completely different cultures. Look at the warrior on the left, holding the bridle. He is probably meant to represent an ordinary soldier, but he has a beard, unlike the supposed nobleman riding astraddle. The beard importance was immense in Scythian and other ancient cultures, because the beard symbolized wisdom and connection to forefathers. Thick beards feature all male faces on Scythian jewelry and decorations. It's hard to believe they would regard a shaved man as a man, let alone a superior man.
According to all the armchair PHD historians in the comments, Scythians were actually Turkic. Or according to others, Iranians. Or Albanians, or Caucasians, or Mongols, or Finns, or Russians. LoL I would love to see an 'intellectual' discussion between these bright individuals.
No, they were not Turkik. I still say Finn or other northern tribes, been marching to south over eons after the black earth for planting and horses. My Grandfather was descended from them. Tall blond etc. Later they called them Caucasians and became very much mixed with other nations. Tatars, Acem, etc.
Lies once again:All contemporary historians, archeologists and linguists are agreed that since the Scythian and Sarmatian tribes were of the Iranian linguistic group [...](Melyukova, A. I. (1990). "The Scythians and Sarmatians". )
Just to be clear, we don't know why the Greeks called them "Scythians". We don't know what the word means other than the name being a Greek version of another name we dont know anything about. Maybe one day we'll find clues.
modern day greek speaking peoples speak a language that often teflects similar words from persian and assyrian. in the same way those neighbooring dialects likely often reflected each other and the word "Scyth" could be annotated as a word given by a dialect who shared common words for elements of trade from the bronze age and the "scyth" and "sickle" names given to tools that were fashioned by then for harvesting wheat and such , also may be where the word (scale) derived from ??
@@historicaladventurevideos Kurgans are primitive pyramids. The more the deceased is loved and respected, the greater the death. Turks and many nations that lived alongside them have internalized this custom of burying the dead. In fact, there is a saying in Turkish for those who died: "May they have plenty of land". Instead of RIP. Because in ancient Turks, those who visit the grave of the deceased bring soil with them. And they pour it on the grave. In this way, the more the deceased person is loved, the larger a kurgan/tumulus is formed on him. There are thousands of kurgans in Anatolia. Asia and everywhere the Turks and Proto-Turks set foot. Important people were also mummified. This custom continued long after the Turks in Anatolia became Muslims. For example, many of the Seljuk rulers were mummified. In fact, if you examine carefully, you will find many FICTIONS/TUMULUS in the Balkans, Europe, especially Northern Europe.
@@historicaladventurevideos Unfortunately, the Scythians did not have a written culture. They were nomads. They were good cavalrymen. They had tamed the horse. This was not something that had been seen in Europe until we saw the Hun Turks. All the customs and traditions, lifestyles, clothing, organizations and forms of governance of the Scythians are compatible with the Turks. They were also in the army-state system. Horde-army, Golden army/Golden Horde.

Archaeology has proved Herodotus correct time and time again. For example, he said the Skythians sometimes burned hemp seeds on bronze tripods inside their tents. Historians didn’t believe this until archaeological excavations proved it was true. (This might have been part of a religious ritual?). Of course, Herodotus didn’t get every single thing right, who does? But, he actually visited most of the places and peoples he wrote about, gathered their histories, looked at their cultural practices and wrote down what he learned. He also gathered first-hand accounts from natives of other regions. He was the first true factual historian, he notes what is hearsay, legend, etc., and what he saw or heard himself. History means “researches” and is a discipline that he invented.

Relax, kazakh-boy. Kazakhs have nothing to do with scythians. Kazakhs are a brand-new nation (first mentioned in 16th century). Your government desire to adorn history of their nation often turns into attempts to appropriate the history which does not rightfully belong to them.
@metamorphosa9838 I am glad you gave me a chance to enlighten you. I encourage you to check everything on yourself if you have any doubts. Kazakhs didn't appear from nowhere in the 15th century. They mainly descended from Kipchak (aka Cuman) tribes and undoubtedly inherited their culture and language, which evolved to the Kazakh language. Later, they were joined (through war and alliances) with turko-mongolic tribes that came with Ghenghis khan. They formed the east wing of The Golden Horde after splitting of The Ghenghis khan Empire to "Ulus"-divisions in 1269. By the end of the 13th century, mongolic tribes and mongolic elite, including Genghisids and Borjigids, were completely absorbed. In the 14th century, during the reign of Özbek khan (1313-1341), all of them became muslims. When Golden horde split to divisions, 23/92 Golden horde turkic tribes became kazakhs that formed an independent Kazakh khanate. Nowadays, kazakhs keep their "shejire" genealogic tradition, which allows them to track their heritage until at least the 13th century. Modern paleogenetic investigations describe the Shejire as historically accurate to track clan-tribe history of clans and dynasties of kazakh people. The same paleogenetic methods also indicate that kazakhs have genetic legacy from pre-turkic scyth-saka tribes in form of R1a haplogroup branches. Kazakh people also bear Xiongnu genetic legacy in form of R1a Z95 and Z2125, N, Q, G1 haplogroups. Artefacts found from mumified and frozen saka burials also indicate similarities between turkic, cuman, and saka cultures.
@@metamorphosa9838 actually we preserved some legacies from Saka people such as pointed hat, you can see its trace from modern Kazakh female traditional headgear , and yeah Kazakhstan nation is relatively young but if you dig a little bit deeper, you’ll find out we’re consisted of numerous tribes which could be traced back much more further

The Sistan province of Iran is home to the last Skan/scythians who left the steps after hunnic invasion ,it was known as ''Skistan'' in the older times, and was changed to Sistan after the domination of the muslims. althaugh during the mongol invasion most of these folks been beheaded due to their comparetive skills in archery and horse back to the mongols. the famouse Iranian story says: when the mongol's khan after long battles finally captured Skistan and sow the hight of their men and women, he was furiouse and because a mongol could not defeat a man from sistan on foot, he ordered that every skistani beheaded so that there be no stop for the mongols in persia and beyond. it was belived that people of eastern Iran and afghanistan were very tall, they are even paintings from classical era that proves that folklore's description of mongols were true. Even the Greeks told about the Scythians being very tall. by the time of the mongols the last of Scythians of the east were killed in south eastern Iran. If one reads the mongol invasion of persia, you will learn that the mongols were defeated by khwarazmian army twice only in Sistan of Iran, because the Skistanis still practiced their ancesstral lifestyle untill that time.

Cattle raids were also a big deal in Ireland. In fact, that was one of the primary ways that the Irish conducted warfare in general. One of the most important stories in Irish mythology is actually about a cattle raid & its consequences, called the "Táin Bó Cuailgne" or Cattle Raid of Cooley
The Scythians are the proto-Celts/Germanics. I am of European lineage and my DNA matches r1b Scythians in the black sea and Royal Scythian burials.
Since they called themselves Saka and some of them lived in the area of the Taklamakan basin, were the mummies found in the desert tombs Saka (aka Scythians)? There were elaborate burials of people who had light skin and red hair, and brought horse-pulled carts to the area. They wore plaid wool, and wool felt hats, and boots.
I think those were Tocharians, they are known for their desert tombs and mummies. They spoke an Indo-European isolate language, but weren't Scythians. They lived around the same area though, and probably came into contact with eachother.
Scythians and and Tocharians are both Aryan cousins but different ethnic groups.
Didn't they DNA test those mummies and find out they were the last remaing Ancient North eurasians before they were btfo'd by east asians like in siberia.
@@BossaliniFiveO Scythians were Indo-Iranian, but Tocharians were not. They were from completely different branches and had distinct linguistic dissimilarities. Eventually, however, I think they grew closer to each other.

The word KÖRÖS in Hungarian means a property of circular things. There is such a river, called KÖRÖS because it describes large circular arches in its course before the rivers were regulated.

Please excuse my following statement as it is a reply to a comment made by dimitriardoux on Christopher Beckwith's book.
I'm all for steppe cultures getting the credit they deserve, but I'm against giving credit where credit is not due. While I've read Christopher Beckwith's book and don't doubt his knowledge on language, that's about where my acknowledgment of this book ends. The rest consists of wildly speculative theories which he presents as facts. He seems to take advantage of the fact that not many scholars hold professional degrees on Scythian culture due to the lack of literate sources, ensuring there aren't many who would take the time to refute his claims. Even the title of the book, 'Scythian Empire,' is misleading, as he doesn't make an effort to explain if and how the Scythians actually had an 'empire'. His theories rely solely on word similarities, from which he extrapolates far-fetched ideas. This approach is unprofessional, to say the least, and not suited for a historian. He essentially claims that the Scythians invented everything from monotheism to Buddhism and even pants (!) , all while demonstrating a serious lack of historical knowledge, such as the chronology of the Egyptian and Persian Empires, as well as the content of works by Herodotus and Diogenes Laertius. In conclusion, his book is a conglomeration of wild claims and theories based on a few Scythian words. Therefore, this hardly qualifies as a scholarly approach.
It's quite clear from this comment that you haven't read his book and you lack some understanding of how PIE languages and are studied. The comparative method is the basis on which the study of these languages is based. I grant you it's not only that but so does Beckwith in his book and he references the supporting evidence for each of his hypotheses bases on papers of normal lexical/phonetic changes and when there is little evidence he does point this out. Additionally when you claim he lacks knowledge on historical chronology you should be able to give a concrete example of what he gets wrong. Same for the content of Herodotus and Diogenes which I have personally reviewed quite in depth and in multiple translations and languages.
You seem quite dismissive and reductionist without actually being able to point out a single actual discrepancy in his work.
And if you are well read on the topic you should know that even non controversial scholars like Barry Cunliffe would disagree with the shallow view presented in this video, not even to speak about the actual inaccuracies rampant throughout. I still like it because there is not much content speaking about these cultures and their massive impact so the more videos the better, but attacking Beckwith while praising this "documentary" is kind of absurd. 😅
@@dimitriradoux You actually admitted that he based his theories solely on linguistic 'evidence,' nothing more, which for a historian (not a linguist) is controversial to say the least. I will give you examples of his lack of historical knowledge. He says that the Scythians had the world's first empire. Aside from the fact that the term 'empire' is ludicrous, he seems to have no knowledge of chronology since, for example, Egyptians and Akkadians had great empires long before the dates which he states that the Scythian 'empire' existed. Furthermore, his theory that Anacharis was the first Greek (?) philosopher is absurd both chronologically and historically. You accuse me of being unable to point out a single actual discrepancy of his work; how about those that I already mentioned, like the fact that the Scythians invented monotheism and Buddhism? Another non-professional attitude of Christopher Beckwith is his constant attack on other 'mainstream' scholars throughout his book. I quite like that you are referring to Barry Cunliffe as a non-controversial scholar, since it means that you acknowledge Christopher Beckwith is indeed a very controversial scholar. Barry Cunliffe is an actual historian who does not stretch out wild theories; he just presents the hard evidence. And since I quite recently read his book on the Scythians, your claim about this video just makes it clear that it is you who haven't read his book. This video is basically a summary of his book, but according to you, Barry Cunliffe himself would disagree with many 'inaccuracies' of this video. Please, my friend, be my guest, point out all the inaccuracies that Cunliffe would disagree with.
@@balkanmountains2-3131 Please refrain from lying as that is not what I said ;) , and yes linguistics are a big part, not the only of Beckwith's argument and history in general! History actually looks at historic thus textual thus linguistic evidence, it's literally the study of texts!
And no Beckwith does not say the Scythians had the worlds first empire ;),
page 15 of just the prologue "However, the father of Astyages, Cyaxares, had already overthrown the mighty Assyrian Empire. The Mede realm take over by Cyrus - an event also recorder in Akkadian Sources -"
Does it seem like he lacks the context or historical knowledge?
And Anacharsis is a very early philosopher from about the same time as Thales of Miletus so I really don't see what is wrong with that argument, he is pre Heraclitus and Pythagoras.
Did you make this documentary is that the issue? Because maybe you should start again at the beginning before the Scythians with getting even the Corded Ware's relationship to the Yamnaya right, which with the latest genetic evidence is clearly shown to emerge from the Yamnaya mixing with the late Neolithic Europeans in the steppe border zone rather then "merging with the Corded Ware" 😂 and no I will not spend my time watching this video again, I am a bit to busy for that 😉
@@mr.purple1779 What 😅 , really what are you even replying too? What point are you trying too make 🤷♂️? Btw just Tocharian is fine otherwise you should also say Indo-Iranian.
@@mr.purple1779not entirely accurate but yes Tocharian is thought to be one of the oldest Indo European languages sub group to split off and yes the so called Anatolian languages of which Hittite is one seem to have split off even earlier. Still do not understand why that is relevant to the discussion at hand though 😅🤷♂️
good detailed information
Love the effort, just a bit too many inaccuracies and outdated superficial views. Might want to look a bit deeper into newer linguistics work by Beckwith or more recent genetic evidence. If you want someone to have a look at your script on a next attempt let me know, I am all for these steppe cultures finally getting the recognition they deserve!
Beckwith's book is full of innacuracies. He claims that the Scythians invented feudalism, monotheism, Buddhism, the first empire, the Chinese dynasties and pretty much everything in the world without giving any explanation or reputable sources to support this 'evidence'.
Christopher Beckwith is hardly a reputable source.
@@balkanmountains2-3131 That statement needs some actual backing my friend, Christopher Beckwith’s scholarship is undeniable and especially regarding this topic in the more eastern part of the steppe cultural influence sphere. So please elaborate why you think so with actual examples regarding the subject at hand “the Scythians”. Or are you just one of those people who doesn’t like the fact he actually gives these cultures the credit they deserve 😉

Let me state this. The US media is claiming Tartars are the indigenous people of Crimea. The oldest people living in that area, that is still there today, are the Greeks. The video stated, They colonized this area, even before the Scythians reach that area, which I thought predated the Greeks. This is why cities in teh area have Pol in the end of their name. it comes from the greek word for city, polis. We see it in Sevastopol, Mariupol, Meritipol
Crimean Tatars are mainly of Anatolian-Balkan origin, apparently from the Bospor kingdom. So these US media don't fool you. Tatars live throughout the forest-steppe strip from the Black Sea region to Altai. If the Crimean are mainly Aatolian, then the Volga Tatars have an average of 60-80% of the Iron Age steppe + Altaic steppe. Which makes them the oldest inhabitants of this all vast area.
Herodotus wrote that the Scythians lived from the Danube to the Don, which is Ukraine. He described the rivers of Ukraine, Scythian plowmen and farmers. Most mounds and finds were found in Ukraine. This video is to justify Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Herodotus contradicted himself on the topic of the Scythians later in life.
Uralic languages were most probably spoken by the Scythians. The Scythian finds, for example, are much better interpreted through Hungarian language and tradition.
Interestingly enough, modern reconstructions of Scythian appearance feature mostly Asian-looking people wearing intricate clothes. But archeological findings (like jewelry or decorations of Scythians) depict simple-dressed bearded people looking more like typical Germanic/Celtic/Slavic warriors.

The Hungarians who conquered at the end of the century were 10-15% of the local population. 60% of the conquering population were genetically similar to the Bashkirs and Volga Tatars (former Volga Bulgars) living today.

Or some relation to Amorites or whereverthey came from...they sound similar in some ways. Or I'm just talking out of my butt.
There's not really any connection, to be honest. The Gutians and the Amorites were people of the Bronze Age Near East, with a completely different culture, language, and way of life compared to the Scythians. The only common thing that the Scythians and the Amorites share is that they were both nomadic peoples and were considered 'barbarians' by their respective neighbors.

The gold trinkets you often see labeled "Scythian" were actually made by Greek colonists,excavated from a Greek colony on the Black Sea..
I always stress thoroughly researching [word origins]
I'm more in line with them calling themselves "Sakai" which is the same proto Germanic root for "sky". They were the people of the sky. Many Christians claim they were named after Isaac. If Isaac was an actual historical figure I'd say it's likely the other way around.

The greek letter ''x'' often used for names of those Ancient western & eastern Iranian cultures should be pronounced as ''Khsh'' .
For example ''Roxolani'' was probably pronounced as ''Rokhsholani'' in Sarmatian languages. ''Roxana'' a sogdian name refered by the greeks was pronounced as ''Rokhshana'' by the natives in the region & even today & the famouse persian king Xerxes (Xer'xes) from the Medo-Persian language was ''Khshyer khsha'' or in modern persian ''Khshayar sha''.
If we follow this pattern then Targitias sons names would have been Lipakhsha, Arpakhsha, Cloakhsha.
Schetian&sarmatian iranian tradition and believes hasn’t changed much we see it through Iran and in Iranian Plato even up today.
I'm a Pars(Persian) and one of my friends is a 6 6 red-headed Scythian originally from Ossetia(Ossetians are one of the Iraninc people and the Aryan cousins of the Persians).
If you visit the Perspolis(Parseh) in Shiraz and Bisotun in Kermanshah(both are very historical cities in Iran) you'll see the petroglyph of Scythians with pointy helmets. Interestingly, while on the Perspolis walls, they're seen hand in hand with their Persian cousins, on the Bisotun wall their leader is captured and captivated amongst others because they rebelled against King Dariush The Great(a lesson for some of the Kurds and Azaris who are making the same mistake thinking this time somehow it would be different).
Anyways, as a Pars, I love my Scythian cousins especially those who live in Ossetia, I think about you every once in a while and I hope one day I get the chance to visit and I highly encourage you to come and visit Iran; after all, we're all Iranic people.

Greeks of the Northern Black Sea Region often commissioned Skithian jewelers to create pieces in the Greek/Hellenistic style. Eventually, elements of Greek art were more generally adopted by the Skithians, probably to increase the appeal to Greeks and Hellenized people of the region.

Dear editor III
Where did Alexander get so many soldiers if not from the Scythians or the Sarmatians. That is, the Serbs. From Sa-bratu or relatives, brothers. His uncle (where he learned to hunt and fight) is from the area of southern Serbia. He got the horse from his brother Vandal. Pela was actually Bela meaning White, just as the Pelazgi are actually Belazgi - white people. Just as Arzavi or Rzavi people are actually red / brown haired people. Alexander fell into Greek intrigues after conquering the Greek cities and was used by his mother to make war with the Persians. The original Sa-brat plan was the liberation of the tribes in western Turkey today, which he achieved with the victory on the Granik river, which means border. In the land of Mysia, which comes from the word - Medja what means border too. The same as Moesia was in Romea. Where the Sa-brats lived. They all became Greeks after Alexander's conquests. The Lydian tribe-from the word Lidi what means - people, the Phrygian tribe-or Brigi, Bregi from word Breg which represents a mountain. People from the Balkan Mountains who came to Anatolia after the fall of the Hittites who were defeated by the People from the Sea - again from the Balkan and Apennine tribes.
Very interesting but I must make one correction. Brigi comes from the goddes Brigid/Freya. Phrygia is the same name as Frisia. The big question is, where did they establish first?
dont forget that the scythian had some language lik iranian median.
No, we don't have a clue about the Median language since there are no accounts, but it was probably the same as Persian a west-Iranian language, while scythian and east-iranuss and their languages split from the weste-Iranians some 4000 yres ago.
Considering the scarcity and obscurity of Scythian writing, w/o Herodotus there would be next to nothing known about these people.
You're right. Despite his many flaws, Herodotus' work is incredibly valuable.
@@historicaladventurevideosBut you did not make the video as described by Herodotus. The Scythians lived from the Danube to the Don, which is Ukraine. The richest finds were found in Ukraine.
@@Echinacea_purpurea You can see from my sources that I didn't base the video solely on Herodotus' work. The main source for this video is the renowned archaeologist and academic, Barry Cunliffe. The Scythians were not confined solely to the borders of Ukraine; according to archaeological findings, they inhabited a vast area of land stretching from central Asia to the Danube. However, you are correct in noting that the richest finds of Western Scythians were discovered in Ukraine. I showcased these findings in the video, including the kurgans and the abundant gold artifacts.
@@historicaladventurevideos The Scythians are the Greek name for the Skolots with whom they lived next door, the ancestors of Ukrainians, not Asian nomads. Why call those who were not Scythians? Not all nomads were Scythians.
The Scythians lived settled or nomadic for short distances. There are many of them in Ukraine: from the Black Sea to Kiev. The Scythians are part of the history of Europe, not Asia.
@@historicaladventurevideos Look at the Ukrainians and Tuvans. Do you see anything in common? No! But why did you unite the nomads of Europe and Asia into one people?

CONCEPT OF BULGAR ETHNOGENESIS IN THE 2-Y HALF OF XX - EARLY XXI CENTURY (to the 85th anniversary of E.P. Kazakov)
According to the concept of E.P. Kazakov himself [2007b, p. 118], the Bulgarian nomads came to the territory of the Middle Volga region, not occupied at that time by any population, in the middle of the VIII century, from the Volga-Don interfluve, rising up the
* We consider the point of view of G.I. Matveeva as a hypothesis, since during the time that has passed since the publications of its main provisions, not only approaches to Novinkovsky antiquities have largely changed, but also the interpretation of the features of these monuments. It is significant that the name for these archaeological objects did not survive in the literature: the terms "Novinkovsky-type monuments," "Novinkovsky monuments," rarely - "Novinkovsky archaeological culture" are used equivalently.
on the right bank of the Volga, while in the area of modern Saratov they were in contact with the Burtas * for some time, as a result of which Turbaslin-Imenkov * * (Late Sarmatian) features appeared in their funeral rite: long grave pits, sometimes with beatings and shoulders, as well as sacrificial complexes from the head, legs and skins of a horse, folded in a special way * * *.
Here they came into contact with the Early Magyar (Kushnarenkov ) tribes that came from the Urals (i.e. Sargatians East Sarmatians). From the 2nd half of the 9th century. they also interacted with the Kama-Ural population, and then, from the 1st half of the 10th century, with the Volga and Kama Finns [Kazakov, 1982, s. 37; 1992, p. 230-254], having formed a mestizo ethnic group, is basically Turkic-speaking, but with a high share of nomadic and forest Ugric, which at the beginning of the 10th century was the main ethnocultural group in this territory. According to him, already from the 7th-8th centuries. in the Middle Volga region, Ugric tribes (the Kushnarenkov culture of the Urals) roamed, which actively supplanted the Imenkov population and ultimately forced him to leave these places.
Prior to this point, in the main points of view, E.P. Kazakova did not contradict the concept of Khalikov - Khuzin, but the further course of his thoughts caused criticism of both researchers [Kazakov, 1982, p. 32, approx. 28 (from the editor); Khuzin, 2011, p. 29-30].
The essence of the views of E.P. Kazakov lies in two theses. First: the scientist believes that the Magyars/Ugras took part in the initial stage of the cultural genesis of the Bulgarian population in the 9th century. did not completely leave the Middle Volga region, subsequently (until the beginning of the 13th century) a considerable and at the same time quite active component of the Bulgarian ethnic group * * * *. This ethnic component, in his opinion, is expressed in archaeological sites of four stages: early Kushnarenkovsky (2nd half of the VI-VII century), Manyak (VIII century), Khusainovsky (late VIII-IX century), Tankeevsky (last third - 1st half of the X century) * * * * *. subsequently with the X century. the Ugric presence was expressed in the materials of the post-Petro-Grom and Chiyalik cultures [Kazakov, 2007a, p. 31-45. 51-64]. Moreover, E.P. Kazakov [2007b, p. 118-119] claims that by the end of the 9th - beginning of the 10th centuries "the future central part of Volga Bulgaria, where its metropolitan centers of Bulgar, Suvar and Bilyar later appeared, was largely" Volga Hungary, "which was the result of the ousting of the Ugric from the Urals as a result of the confrontation between the Magyars and the Pechenegs in the 80s years IX century.
The second thesis: the early Bulgars until the 2nd-3rd quarter of the 10th century. did not have constant settlement, i.e. were mainly nomads and, moreover, despite the adoption of the Muslim religion by the Bulgarian elite in 922, remained pagan for the most part. Their settlements begin to actively arise only in the second half of this century [Kazakov, 1992, p. 300]. According to E.P. Kazakov [1992, p. 326], the semi-nomadic lifestyle and pagan religious views were preserved among the Bulgars until the 60s. X century, when, under pressure from the Pechenegs, immigrants from Kuban region - the descendants of the "black Bulgarians" of Batbay, move to the Kazan Volga region. In addition, in the IX-X centuries. small groups of Turkic-speaking nomads - Pechenegs and Guzes - pour into the Bulgarian environment.
These two theses of the concept of E.P. Kazakov became key both in understanding the historical development of the Bulgarian material culture of the entire pre-Mongol period,
* A.Kh. Khalikov [2011, p. 203-205] localized the Burtas (tribe) in Posurye (modern Penza region).
* * A.Kh. Khalikov [2011, p. 172] determined the ethnic group of the population that left monuments such as the Turbas-Linsky burial ground, Turkic-Ugric.
* * * In his early works, E.P. Kazakov considered such sacrificial complexes characteristic of Ugric.
* * * * This assumption was not completely rejected by A.Kh. Khalikov [2011, p. 193], however, considering that this fact was not significant in the processes of Bulgarian ethnogenesis, since most of them left the territory of the Lower Prikamye and the Southern Urals no later than 835-836.
* * * * * This periodization of E.P. Kazakov is disputed by other researchers [Matveeva, 2007, p. 75-86].
so in the reconstruction of the development of society. Some of these ideas were later developed by Ufa and Perm archaeologists.
The problem of the formation of the Volga Bulgars has now acquired a new sound related to the research of the Samara archaeologist D.A. Stashenkov, who is engaged in the pre-Bulgarian era - monuments of the Novinkovsky type and Imenkovsky culture. The publications of this author, the first of which appeared in the late 1990s, showed that the early stage of the history of the Bulgars is not as unambiguous as it was imagined in the last third of the 20th century, and is largely related to the events that took place in the Khazar Khaganate as a whole. According to D.A. Stashenkov, the processes of ethnogenesis in the territory of the Middle Volga region were multivariant, not linear and occurred discretely, not continually.
The scientist believes that the alien population from the western territories (Kyiv culture), multi-ethnic in its core, from the first centuries CE groups settled the territory of the Samara Volga region, and later - the southern part of the Central and Western Zakamya, mainly the basin of the Bolshoi Cheremshan, where monuments of the Sidelkino-Timyashevo type were identified [Stashenkov, 2005, p. 45; Rudenko, 2014, p. 307-324], coming into contact with the Sarmatians, who in the IV century, leave this region under pressure from the Huns [Stashenkov, 2007, p. 77]. Certain groups of this population later became part of the developed Imenkovsky culture, the beginning of the formation of which the scientist refers to the III-V centuries. The motley ethnic array of Imenkovites with the predominance of the Slavic component significantly differed in material culture from the population of monuments such as Sidelkino-Timyashevo and at the same time had quite a lot of expressive regional features. This determines the early stage of Imenkovsky culture, monuments of which are recorded mainly on the territory of the Samara Volga region [Stashenkov, 2005, p. 46].
D.A. Stashenkov [2010b, p. 116] claims that monuments of the Lbishchensky type (early Imenkovsky according to G.I. Matveeva [1998, p. 87-96]) and settlements of the Sidelkino-Timyashevo type and a number of others coexisted even in the 4th century, and the peculiarities of their material culture are explained by different initial migration territories, mainly Western. The late stage of the Imenkov culture - V-VII centuries. developed in the Samara Luka, Kazan Volga region and in the adjacent regions of the Kama region. It is characterized by the "eastern" influence, primarily of the nomadic cultures of the Ugric circle (Kushnarenkovskaya) reformatting the appearance of the material culture of the Imenkovites. But at the same time, some groups of the previous population could also continue to exist at a new stage of cultural genetics.
This point of view differs from the views of E.P. Kazakov [1996, p. 48; 1998, p. 110-111], which limits the existence of the Imenkov culture to the 2nd half of the VI-VII centuries, and connects it with immigrants from the Caspian region (Jetyassar culture) -( i.e. Central Asian Scythians - East Alan - Wusun, Kangju) who came into contact on the territory of Western and Eastern Zakamye with the Late Sarmatian population (Turbaslin culture). In his opinion, it was the Ugric nomads who forced the Imenkovites in the 2nd half of the 7th century. to leave the territory of their habitat, which then was empty for almost more than 100 years.
D.A. Stashenkov [2013, p. 80], like E.P. Kazakov, does not consider the Novinkovsky monuments of Samara Luke to be Bulgarian, since they, in his opinion, were "a conglomerate of various ethnic groups that, as part of Avar or Khazar detachments, were on the border lands of the Byzantine Empire until the middle of the 7th century AD.." This mixed population of the Khazar Khaganate * had no direct connection with the Prabolgars and Bulgarians who migrated to the Middle Volga in the middle - 2nd half of the VIII century, the traces of whose presence in the region are the intake burials of the Kaibel mounds, the Uren-P burial mound, as well as the soil Avtozavodsky
* There is extensive literature on various aspects of the study of Novinkovo monuments, for example, periodization and chronology [Lifanov, 2005, pp. 25-40].
Avtozavodskaya necropolis. Actually, the scientist considers only the Bobrovsky burial to be related to Bulgarian monuments [Stashenkov, 2013, p. 81].
D.A. Stashenkov divides the funeral monuments of nomads on the Middle Volga into several groups: mound-dirt Novinkovsky, which appeared at the end of the 7th century. on Samara Luka, which ceased to exist as a result of the campaign of the Arab commander Mervan ibn Muhammad in 737, or, in a wider dating, in the middle of the VIII century; as well as Berezovsky and Shilovsky mounds [Stashenkov, Turetsky, 1999, p. 297; Stashenkov, 2008, p. 95]. The next group: burial mounds of the Simbirsk Volga region - Kai-Belsky and Uren-P of the 2nd half of the VIII - IX century. The third group is in the Pre-Volga and Central Zakamye, almost synchronous with the previous one: More-Tarkhansky and More-Tigansky *. At the same time, in addition to nomads in the Simbirsk Volga region, groups of the settled population close to the tribes of Priochye also lived at the same time [Stashenkov, 2013, p. 83].
IX century. with the possibility of the beginning of the 10th century - this is how the author dates separate burials of the Magyar circle of the Samara Volga region. He believes that three subgroups can be distinguished, differing in the details of the funeral rite, having gender and age characteristics and geographical localization, although in general, with a number of reservations, D.A. Stashenkov [2013, p. 85] recognizes their monoculture.
The researcher's conclusions about the nature of the occupation of the inhabitants of the region in this era are important. He identifies it from finds in villages and their archaeological context, synchronizing with the functioning time of burial grounds. So, for the third group, D.A. Stashenkov notes individual ceramic finds of the late VIII - IX centuries. on the Imenkovsky settlements of the Simbirsk Volga region (Abramovsky village, settlement Chertov Gorodok and Novoslobodskoye * *), which Yu.A. Semykin and G.I. Matveeva considered evidence of contacts between the Imenkovites and Novinkovtsy. Such finds were found in villages on Samara Luka: Sevryukaevsky-P, Novy Put, Malaya Ryazan^P of the same period, and where fragments of Black Sea amphorae were found [Elm, Nerushin, 2010, p. 132].
By the 9th century D.A. Stashenkov [2008, p. 95-96; 2010a, p. 118-119, Fig. 1-8] refers to similar finds on the monuments of the Samara Right Bank - the Proletarian settlement and the village of the Power of Labor. On a number of settlements in this region, artifacts have been identified that, in his opinion, are associated with the Slavic Romenoborshev culture.
It was believed that until the middle of the VIII century. there were no traces of nomads migrating to the Middle Volga at the settlements, but the new materials received by D.A. Stashenkov in 2010-2019 changed this assumption. We are talking about the Zhigulevsky burial ground and the village of the same name in the Stavropol district of the Samara region. These objects are synchronous with the monuments of the Novinkovsky circle, but the ethnicity of the population that left them, according to the researcher, was clearly different [Stashenkov, 2013, p. 81, Fig. 2, 3; 2014, p. 109].
After the first seasons of excavation of these monuments, D.A. Stashenkov [2010a, p. 119] assumed that the Slavs who served the Novinkovsky groups of the population left this settlement, and the latter, in turn, performed the "task of protecting the northern borders of the Khazar Khaganate" and were relocated here by the Khazar administration. Excavations 2013-2017. gave reason to the researcher to clarify the date of the Zhigulevsky village: VII-X centuries. - and prove his connection with the nearby burial ground where the dead were buried according to the cremation rite * * *. Expressive material was obtained from the burials,
* The late part of the Bolsho-Tigansky burial ground dates from the beginning of the 10th century.
* * The settlement Chertov town is located on the left bank of the Volga, the rest - on the right.
* * * Burial grounds with a cremation ceremony are known on Samara Luka, however, in this case, without the installation of ceramic urn-vessels [Myshkin, 2013, p. 73-118]. Corpse burning is characteristic of the Imenkovsky burial grounds of the Kazan Volga region [Matveeva, 2003, p. 29].
including, in addition to ceramic vessels, metal products and glass jewelry - beads (Fig. 3). The village and the burial ground functioned simultaneously and represented a single archaeological complex [Stashenkov, 2014, p. 88, 109; Kochkina, Stashenkov, 2018a, p. 38-39]. In 2018, it was established that the Zhigulevsky-P burial ground was biritual - along with cremation, the multimedia burial was studied, which was part of the group of burials of the VIII century. [Stashenkov, Kochkina, 2019a, p. 22]. This once again reinforced the researcher's idea of the heterogeneous composition of the population of Samara Luke in the Khazar era.
On the specifics of archaeological materials of the 9th century. Samara Luke gives an idea of the village of Power of Labor in the Volga region of the Samara region, where the remains of buildings and ceramic material are recorded, including a circle-boat vessels close to the Nevolins [Kochkina, Sta-shenkov, 2018a, p. 40; Stashenkov, Kochkina, 2019b, p. 23-24]. The predominance of the nomadic Ugric component among the population of the Samara Volga region at that time, it would seem, ruled out the possibility of the existence of settled settlements, but new discoveries denied this. As far as it was typical for the era and the region as a whole, it is too early to judge, but it can be noted that the habitation of Ugras and Imenkovites in one settlement on the Middle Volga was recorded archaeologically (II Tetyushsky settlement) [Rudenko, 2013, p. 58-74].
Based on the analysis of the received material, D.A. Stashenkov concludes that settlements of the Khazar time appear in the Middle Volga region back in the 7th century and have a different character - from seasonal sites to permanent settlements. They are left ethnically heterogeneous by the population, connected partly with the Saltovo world (i.e Saltovo-Mayaki culture Khazars, Alans, and Bulgars), partly with the Slavs and Ugri, and together they make up at least four heterogeneous groups of settlements that are not connected with each other. The scientist notes that not a single one with the Imenkovtsy

1 - burial No. 18; 2-4 - burials No. 11, 13; 5-11 - burial No. 19 (according to: [Kochkina, Stashenkov, 2018a, p. 39; Stashenkov, Kochkina, 2019a, p. 22])
none of these groups were associated [Stashenkov, 2010a, p. 120]. The Volga Bulgars, as follows from the logic of the researcher, were formed from the population that left the Bolshe-Tar-Khan burial ground, approximately according to the scheme indicated in the works of E.P. Kazakov.
Conclusion
Thus, the concept of E.P. Kazakov completed the formation of a general vision of the early stage of the history of the Volga Bulgars, going beyond the autochthonous paradigm postulated by the Khalikov-Khuzin concept, defining the leading force in the development of ethnogenetic processes - the migration of different groups of the population, mainly nomadic, from the territory of the Khazar Khaganate consistently, "waves" reaching the territory of the Middle Volga region. However, the emphasis on the linear nature of the culturogenesis process led the discussion of this problem to substantiate mainly the ethnic components of the emerging Bulgarian ethnic group.
One of the options for a new consideration of the problem is the attempt of D.A. Stashen-kov to determine the nature of both external and internal processes of migration and adaptation of aliens of the pre-Bulgarian stage in the Middle Volga region. He showed on archaeological materials that the processes of culturogenesis were multivariant and that in addition to sequentially changing one population to another, with a corresponding change of material culture objects, which in this case acquired the meaning of chronological markers, there was a coexistence of groups of the population, different in their traditions and having distinctive features of life and culture, as well as those inhabitants who continued to live in local natural refugia at that time, when most of the tribesmen who came with them were either assimilated or left these places. Another important point from the discoveries of D.A. Stashenkov is worth noting: settling skills were inherent in almost all aliens who appeared in the VII-X centuries. on Samara Luka, and they had them without the special influence of the settled Imenkov population, the basis of whose life was a complex economy, where in addition to fishing and cattle breeding, as well as agriculture, developed [Elm, 2008a-b]
We can assume that the concept of E.P. Kazakov and the new concept of D.A. Stashenkov are not only a continuation of the development of the scientific revolution of the 2nd half of the 20th century. in medieval archeology of the Middle Volga region, expanding the territorial framework of the birth of the Volga-Bulgarian ethnic group, and a new stage in the historical and cultural understanding of the process of forming an ethnic map of the 2nd half of the 1st millennium AD. They revealed the connection and even conditioning of many processes of ethnogenesis with the impact on them not only of the nearest peoples on the basis of ethnic or cultural proximity, but also in general the ethnocultural environment that has developed in the space of the entire Khazar state. Within the framework of this concept, the complexity of the mechanisms of formation of certain elements of traditional culture during assimilation and acculturation processes was also proved. Obviously, we are currently witnessing the development of a new discourse of the study of cultural genesis in the Middle Volga region in the 2nd half of the 1st millennium AD - the beginning of the 2nd millennium AD.

I think that "Scythian" was a term that used for nomadic Asian warriors.The Scythians was a confedaration like the European Huns.Proto-Turks or Altaic peoples,nomadic Iranians,Uralic peoples,Caucasians maybe proto Slavs.Probably the Royal families or Kings were Iranian speaking peoples(Like the Huns elites were speaking Turkic language but Huns was becoming by so many ethnicities).So its wrong the say that Scythians were Iranian,Turk,Slav etc.
Partially yes, Scythians, like the Huns, Avars, Hungarians were an alliance and not a single tribe, so certianly ethnically they had it all (pre-IE mixed in). On the other hand no Germans, Slavs etc. had cultural, linguistic continuity with them. Only the Hungarian legends claim their ancestors were the Scythians. Only the Hungarian fight tactics were identical with the Scythians, only the Hungarian religion was similar to the Scythian (tree of life etc.). Hungarian have no specific word for wolfs and deers, the Hungarian language uses adjective to refer to these anymals that were considered gods - deer: antler-ed (animal), wolf: tailed (animal)
Turkic people have their right in this too, so Scythians were probably the common ancestors.

and scy-thians are also an indo iranian tribe lived in central asia and a country called scythia was also present in history and in anciant greek also 'thia' means divine/god/ goddess and a goddess called 'theia' also in Greece methodology and many other gods also carry 'thia' name in ancient greek religion and the fire 🔥 goddess is called 'hestia' in ancient greek mythology
And the first and the oldest veda Rigveda start with the verses of agini 🔥(thi)
In the Vedic tradition, soma (Sanskrit: सोम, romanized: sóma) is a ritual drink of importance among the early Vedic Indo-Aryans.The Rigveda mentions it, particularly in the Soma Mandala. Gita mentions the drink in chapter 9 It is equivalent to the Iranian haoma(alcohol drink)The relationship between humans and the deity was one of transaction, with Agni (the sacrificial fire) taking the role of messenger between the two. Strong traces of a common Indo-Iranian religion remain visible, especially in the Soma cult and the fire worship and animal sacrifice is also part of early vedic tribes
According to historians and anthropologists lived in colonial British period in india in their works Malabar manual by William Logan (1887) and castes and tribes in south india by edgar therlsun (1909) which eloborate the details and life style of more then 300 castes in south india clearly mentioned thiya caste in north malabar kerala have some european ancestry and it is the only hindhu caste mentioned in Eurasian category by edgar therlsun in his book caste and tribes of south india (1909) and Logan States that " There are, in North Malabar, many individuals, whose fathers were European. Writing, in 1887, concerning the Tiyan comniunity, Mr. Logan states* that “the women are not as a rule excommunicated if they live with Europeans, and the consequence is that there has been among them a large admixture of European blood, and the caste itself has been materially raised in the social scale. In appearance some of the women are almost as fair as Europeans.” On this point, the Report of the Malabar Marriage Commission, 1894, states that “in the early days of British rule, the Tiyan women incurred no social disgrace by consorting with Europeans, and, up to the last generation, if the Sudra girl could boast of her Brahmin lover, the Tiyan girl could show more substantial benefits from her alliance with a white man of the ruling race. Happily the progress of education, and the growth of a wholesome public opinion, have made shameful the position of a European’s concubine ; and both races have thus been saved from a mode of life equally demoralizing to each.”
Saka is the actual name of the Iranian tribes that made up the Northern Saka as well as Southern Saka tribes. Sakas also had smaller sub tribes scattered throughout the Iranian (Persian) empire. Sakas like all Iranian tribes ( Sarmations, Tocharians,are Indo-European tribes and speak Indo-European languages. Sakas have absolutely NO RELATIONSHIP to the current Sakha people who presently live in Siberia and Altai mountains of Russia and Kazakhstan. The Siberian Sakha are moongloid Turkic people. Today you can find the dependents of the Iranian Saka tribes in present day Iran and Russia. The following Iranian populations of Alans, Ossetians living in southern Russia and northern Georgia are the direct dependents of the Iranian Saka. All Iranian tribes originate from Europe where they used to live along the river Danube and over thousands of years they migrated eastward to present day Ukraine, Russia, Caucasus (Pontic Steppes) and Iran and further east all the way to China; a part of the Iranian population migrated to the present northern India and since the Europeans were the first to classify the languages they broadly categorized the Iranian languages as Indo-European. In my opinion, it would have been more accurate to classify the Iranian languages as the Aryan languages; or indo-Germanic languages. In most European or American colleges and universities who identify themselves based on their perceived Hellenic past, there i a great deal of reliance for the Greek explanations of the Iranian history. This may lead to inaccurate and self serving Greek explanations of the ancient world by the Greeks who neither shared the indo-European languages or cultures. Many of present day TH-camrs who have little or no training in the subject matters simply repeat what the Greeks or other TH-camrs have said using alternate terms and words with critical examination of assumptions or facts.
Dr. Robert Sepehr's diverse books and videos also cover this history, including immigration, languages, etc. are most fascinating. th-cam.com/video/XXL09iWJrfs/w-d-xo.html
Ancient Persia iran
Said a whole lot of nothing
The term Alan, widely known from historical literature, in Türkic means “Low-Landers”, “Plain People”, so there is little that can be connected with ethnicity unless the tribal affiliation can be established. The term gained ethnical connotations with the establishment of polities, centralized political alliances, and has as much ethnical meaning as the generic Scythians, nomads, or Wendeln - “Wanderers” - Vandals. The Alans that held the Daryal Pass, for example, were As-Tochar compact, hence the Georgian Ovses (Ases), Taulases (Mountain Ases), Digors (Tochars) and the like. For von Klaproth, Alans were a distinct ethnic group somehow affiliated with Ases, hence Alans > Ases > Ovs > Ossetes. As will be shown below, in the von Klaproth’s time, Ossete was a form used by the Russian expeditionary force for the Georgian Ovs.
The von Klaproth’s hypothesis suggested to identify Ossetes with the nomadic horse husbandry Scythians, it started as a global hypothesis that covered all aspects of the entire ethnicity and its entire history. The hypothesis remained notional for most of its existence, till the multidisciplinary evidence led to its shrinkage, eventually reducing it to a purely linguistic hypothesis.
They ruled India for several century too.... Most of them assimilated with native after accepting local beliefs and Buddhism..They brought their deitys too naming them as avlokiteshvar and arihants.

Randall Carlson starts going crazy at 57:59 lol
your thumbnail is misleading, they looked like the people do now in the region. Aka white.
The thumbnail is an image created by Simeon Netchev, based on the forensic reconstruction of the skulls of the man and woman known as the 'royal couple,' found in the burial site Arzan 2 in the Tuva Republic in Russia. I discuss this topic from approximately 38:52 to 42:27 in the video. This image represents one of the few complete artistic facial reconstructions of a Scythian man and a Scythian woman that I have found on the internet. I would like to emphasize that there is no single 'white' look or phenotype. There are various features ranging from southern Mediterranean to Nordic and East Slavic. Even if there were a uniform 'white' appearance, as I mention in the video, genetic evidence indicates that the Scythians were a mixed people. The western Scythians bore more resemblance to eastern Europeans, while the eastern Scythians often resembled their nomadic neighbors further east. Furthermore, today, the region inhabited by the Scythians, is home to diverse populations beyond just 'white' people. It includes Russians, Ukrainians, Georgians, and Azeris but also Kazakhs, Altai people, Tuva people, Kalmyk people, and more.

@@historicaladventurevideos They would be considered caucasian as they have our markers mainly the blue/green eyes and red/blonde colored hair and pale skin, just like the ancient Iranians where the markers still exist in the more pure tribes(those not forced to mate with the Arabs through conquest) who still possess green/blue sometimes grey eyes and blonde/red hair and very fare skin. You get the same thing in Sicily who appear much darker in complexion with often dark brown or black hair and often brown eyes that is due to the Moors invasion of the region and forced mating between the two, they were not described this way by the Greeks and only took 80 years to totally alter their genetics.
@@DustinDonald-cz9ot There is no such thing as 'caucasian', this is an obsolete racial classification that is only used by Americans. Genetic mutations like the eye and hair colour that happened in the already 'white' people did not and never applied to all 'white' people. According to your theory, only 15-20% of modern Europe can be considered Caucasian. Furthermore, it is evident both from the ancient texts and the genetic evidence that most of the ancient Mediterranean peoples had brown hair and brown eyes.
@@historicaladventurevideosAnd yet, the picture looks rather eclectic, as if the depicted trio represented three completely different cultures. Look at the warrior on the left, holding the bridle. He is probably meant to represent an ordinary soldier, but he has a beard, unlike the supposed nobleman riding astraddle. The beard importance was immense in Scythian and other ancient cultures, because the beard symbolized wisdom and connection to forefathers. Thick beards feature all male faces on Scythian jewelry and decorations. It's hard to believe they would regard a shaved man as a man, let alone a superior man.

According to all the armchair PHD historians in the comments, Scythians were actually Turkic. Or according to others, Iranians. Or Albanians, or Caucasians, or Mongols, or Finns, or Russians. LoL I would love to see an 'intellectual' discussion between these bright individuals.
No, they were not Turkik. I still say Finn or other northern tribes, been marching to south over eons after the black earth for planting and horses. My Grandfather was descended from them. Tall blond etc. Later they called them Caucasians and became very much mixed with other nations. Tatars, Acem, etc.

Lies once again:All contemporary historians, archeologists and linguists are agreed that since the Scythian and Sarmatian tribes were of the Iranian linguistic group [...](Melyukova, A. I. (1990). "The Scythians and Sarmatians". )
Just to be clear, we don't know why the Greeks called them "Scythians". We don't know what the word means other than the name being a Greek version of another name we dont know anything about. Maybe one day we'll find clues.
modern day greek speaking peoples speak a language that often teflects similar words from persian and assyrian. in the same way those neighbooring dialects likely often reflected each other and the word "Scyth" could be annotated as a word given by a dialect who shared common words for elements of trade from the bronze age and the "scyth" and "sickle" names given to tools that were fashioned by then for harvesting wheat and such , also may be where the word (scale) derived from ??
İf name is kurgan, it means these people is ProtoTurk.
Kurgan is the name given to these tombs today, we don't know what the Scythians called them.
@@historicaladventurevideos Kurgans are primitive pyramids.
The more the deceased is loved and respected, the greater the death.
Turks and many nations that lived alongside them have internalized this custom of burying the dead.
In fact, there is a saying in Turkish for those who died: "May they have plenty of land".
Instead of RIP.
Because in ancient Turks, those who visit the grave of the deceased bring soil with them.
And they pour it on the grave.
In this way, the more the deceased person is loved, the larger a kurgan/tumulus is formed on him.
There are thousands of kurgans in Anatolia.
Asia and everywhere the Turks and Proto-Turks set foot.
Important people were also mummified.
This custom continued long after the Turks in Anatolia became Muslims.
For example, many of the Seljuk rulers were mummified.
In fact, if you examine carefully, you will find many FICTIONS/TUMULUS in the Balkans, Europe, especially Northern Europe.
@@historicaladventurevideos Unfortunately, the Scythians did not have a written culture.
They were nomads.
They were good cavalrymen.
They had tamed the horse.
This was not something that had been seen in Europe until we saw the Hun Turks.
All the customs and traditions, lifestyles, clothing, organizations and forms of governance of the Scythians are compatible with the Turks.
They were also in the army-state system.
