  • The world of the nomads who lived upon the Eurasian Steppe would face a radical transformation between the 4th-2nd centuries BC. Originally dominated by the Scythians and Saka, the Pontic-Caspian and Central Asian Steppes saw the migration and invasion of new tribes, sending them on a collision course with the likes of the Seleucid Empire and Greco-Bactrians as they established their own empires, shaking the foundations of the Hellenistic world. In this episode, we will explore steppe society and its history, the relationship of the nomads with the sedentary Greeks, and look at the emergence of future great powers like the Parthians and the Kushans.

    This made me think of the Kochi nomads (a group of Pashtuns) in Afghanistan who to this day live a nomadic life style, moving about seasonally with animals and living in tents. They use colored beads and cloth for ornaments, and use blue tattoos in the form of dots. They used to engage quite heavily in trade through their travels and are coming into conflict with sedentary people who don't want Kochis grazing their sheep and whatever animals they have. Among Kochis, women often lead a more egalitarian life style compared to women from other settled tribes, not covering their faces and moving about independently.

    • @HellenisticAgePodcast
      @HellenisticAgePodcast  Před 3 lety +6

      If we are referring to Caucasian Albania (modern western Azerbaijan), then from my memory there was probably some degree of Hellenization. It was likely limited to the upper society in form of material culture, but I assume that since the Orontid and Artaxid Armenian rulers dominated the region, then it would also experience Iranian culture moreso.
      If we are referring to "modern" Albania (roughly Epirus and Illyria) then you are probably going to get a higher degree of it. I am going to be interviewing an academic about the Romano-Illyrian Wars in a few weeks, so I might be able to better answer your question then.

    Hello everyone. I know you would not agree with me but I want to discuss about. I think all Scythian/Saka people are related to people speaking uralic, altaic and dene-caucasian languages which are agglutinative languages having common word structure algorithms.
    But please listen to me before you reject at least, because I have an inspection about genetic vs linguistic world maps matching my idea. My idea is as below according to my ydna haplogroup map inspections without being a scientist.
    Real indoeuropean haplogroups were descendants of F which are G georgians & caucasians, H south indians, I1 germanic visigoths, I2 slavic ostrogths, E+J2 grecoromans & macedonians, J2 M172 persians & central asian iranians. You can also inspect in wikipedia. K was their undesired brother and they migrated to southeast asia and mixed with D tibetoburmans and C2 austronesians.
    They have invented a new language as agglutinative which will change into uralic, altaic, dene-caucasian languages later. After they started to migrate into northeast asia, O1 and O2 sinotibetans have settled to south china and indonesia. On the other hand, C3, N, O3, P group have continued their journey and reached northeast asia together.
    N has migrated to north asia as finnic, uralic, O3 remained in north china, korea and japan, C3 and P has settled to altai region in northeast asia, where Mal'ta Buret (R1*) culture has been found. During the ice age (25k BC) they have separated to two directions and some has remained in altai region:
    1. Major Q and minor R*, C3 has migrated to americas as NaDene (Atabasqan), Chukotkan, Algic people.
    2. Minor Q and major R1* has migrated to central asia over Pamir mountains.
    3. Major P, R1* and minor Q has remained in altai region as yeniseian kets and sakha, hakhas, altaian, tuvan, uyghur turkic people.
    Second group has reached to central asia and mutated to R1a as Burushaski (Saka/Shaski) and met those other real J2 M172 and L indoeuropean people (having a zoroastrian religion) of southeast asia as they were real iranic and vedic sanskrit people. Some has mutated to R2 when they were reaching to south india as tamil dravidian speaking agglutinative language and mixed with H south indians.
    R1b has mutated first in Turkmenstan and met persian people of modern Iran which is different from other iranic speaking people genetically as mostly J2 M172. (Persian king I. Darius calls himself as persian and arian but calls these people as foreign Saka.)
    Mutated people of Turkmenstan were ancestors of Sumer (Sakir) people speaking agglutinative Turkic or Dene-Caucasian languages. These migrations have started in 30k BC and lasted until 10k BC from altai region to mesopotamia and all those people are called as Saka by persians. Saka means nomads in old persian, same way those people were calling themselves as Yürük meaning nomads in turkic languages.
    After they have mixed with some J2 M172 persians, G caucasians, J1 akkadians have continued to their journey to north caucasia where Scythians lived with a mixed indoeuropean and agglutinative north caucasian (Dene-Caucasian) languages.
    Some group have separated to anatolia and reached to west anatolia with their Lemnian (Dene-Caucasian) agglutinative language. They have continued to balkans and they left Tatarlaka (Tatar tablets of 6.5k BC) in agglutinative language which could be read easily by hungarian philologs.
    Those agglutinative Dene-Caucasian Tyrrhenian language speaking R1b people have also reached to Etruria with their similar culture to Ashina dynasty of Gokturks. They were also relatives of Raetic and Vasconic agglutinative language speakers of europe. Then they have spread to europe as Basconians.
    Even modern Basq (Eu-Saka-ra) people are originated from anatolia, caucasia and speak still agglutinative Dene-Caucasian language similar to latin language which is a mixture of agglutinative Tyrrhenian and indoeuropean Grecoroman languages. They lived isolated and protected their 90% R1b haplogroup and basq language.
    On the other hand, other Saka/Scythian related Saksonian, Scottish, Aquitan/Occitan (O-s(a)citan) people have lost their language and culture by mixing with I1 germanic visigoths in north and E+J2 grecoromans in south later.
    As I explained before, Scythians and their Saka ancestors could have settled to euroasia as assimilated to indoarian languages. They also got in contact with I2 slavic ostrogoths in balkans and ukraine and got into cultural influence of gothic mythology.
    After they got stronger, they spread to central asia, southwest asia etc. as Saka people. Eventough they met iranic culture in elder persian kingdoms they mixed their culture with resident L west indians and H south indians.
    As a result, I say that all Saka/Scythian related people are turkic, ugric R1a, R1b originated relative people who were originally speaking turkic, uralic and/or dene-caucasian agglutinative lannguages. Real indoeuropeans were G elder caucasians, H south indians, I1 germanic visigoths, I2 slavic ostrogoths, J2 M172 persians and later L vedic sanskrit west indians.

      @@eho6380 The Scythians were composed of Aryan tribes of proto-Iranian equestrian communities who were semi-nomadic and mentioned as inhabiting large areas in the central Eurasian steppes since at least the second millennium BC. Their territories were known to classical Greek sources as Scythia.
      The "classical Scythians" most often spoken about by ancient Greek historians were located in the northern Black Sea and fore-Caucasus region.
      However, other Scythian groups encountered in Near Eastern and Achaemenid sources existed in Central Asia. In their life and habits they much resemble the people of Parthia.
      Moreover, the term "Scythian" is also used by modern scholars in an archaeological context, i.e. any region perceived to display attributes of the proto-Aryan civilization or "Scytho-Siberian" culture. Much of what is known of the history of the Scythians comes from the account of them by the ancient Greek historian Herodotus, who visited their territory.
      In modern times this record has been expanded chiefly by the work of Russian anthropologists. Numerous ancient DNA samples have now been recovered from the putative 'ancestors' of the historical Scythians.
      Physical and genetic analyses have unanimously concluded that the Scythians, even those in the east, possessed predominantly "Europioid" features, although mixed 'Euro-mongoloid' phenotypes also occur, depending on period.
      The haplotypes and haplogroups of 26 ancient human specimens from the Krasnoyarsk area in Siberia were dated from between the middle of the 2nd millennium BC and the 4th century AD, nearly all belong to haplogroup R-M17.
      The data shows that the constellation of populations known variously as Scythians were blue- (or green-) eyed, fair-skinned and light-haired people who also played a major role in the early development of the Tarim Basin civilization. Politically motivated Anthropologists promoting a false Marxist inspired egalitarian version of history have gotten a much deserved slap in the face recently from a number of archaeological discoveries in the Orient which indicate that the original founders of many Eastern philosophies and civilizations - which are so revered by "New Age" types who despise anything Caucasian and European - were in fact racial Aryans. -Robert Sepehr

    It's kinda weird that historians want us to believe that Arya people have Steppe origin while the ancient scriptures from where the people found the term Arya: Vedas and Avesta says otherwise and highlights that Indus valley region is the homeland ..The Arya of Vedas consider the Scythian-Iranian tribe Dahae(Dasa) as foreign, considers Parni ( Pani) as foreign ..Sakas ( Scythians) and Yavanas ( Greek /Hellenes) are considered Mlechha ( Foreign) in Mahabharata ...even among the Pancha Janas ( five main tribes) of Vedas only Purus( Protagonist) are called Arya, most probably because they considered themselves superior and cultured w.r.t Anu, Druhyu, Turvasa and Yadu ...In Mahabharat Kurus ( Descendant of Puru) are called Anarya ( Non -Arya) because they did wrong things and went against Dharma( Righteousness ) So people with same lineage are being called both Arya and Non-Arya..So by the definition of Vedic culture only followers of Dharma are Arya and its more like a communal title than a racial or ethno-linguistic identity as proposed by Historians...I think once upon a time every Eurasian followed similar cultures.

      In Ramayana -> The antagonist who lived on the Island of Lanka:Ravana called himself Arya and his son Indrajit calls Rama ( Protagonist, Avatar of Lord Vishnu himself) as Anarya/Non-Arya and Ramayan the text later calls Rama an Arya ...So the term here surely is a title similar to the words Noble/Cultured used by people belonging to different lineage for themselves.

      This is nonsense. A record of the term Aryan is in the Daiva inscription of Xerxes I when he calls himself an Aryan of Aryan stock. The Persians never considered the Punjab as their original homeland. In fact, the name of the people and nation is Aryan (Iran) and An-Iran refers to not Iran which included the Punjab. Furthermore, in the Vedas the most ancient ritual is the horse sacrifice. Why would a people originating in the Punjab have a horse sacrifice as an 'ancient ritual' when the horse wasn't introduced there until later. That makes no sense. Plus, who migrates out of india? Why would a people leave lush, fertile Punjab for dry, cold Iran and central asia? That makes no sense. The Indus valley is where people go to not from.
      It all revolves around the horse. Where ever horses were first domesticated is the home of the Aryans. Period. And that location is the central Asian steppe.

    Scythian meant nomads
    For example Massagetae were at war with western scythian, modern day Germanics
    Then you had eastern Scythians like Pashtuns who were eastern Iranian. They also liked killing and pillaging
    The Huns and Kushans were also Scythians in their own rights
    The first were the Indo Aryans who made the war chariot. The most destructive actually were Indo Aryans because their blood extends from Syria to Sri Lanka with R1a L657.
    Eastern Iranian Scythians were also really crazy, same goes for huns.

    The succession of nomadic polities across Central Asia is likely the only _'domino effect'_ in history that isn't propaganda.
    And if it's true that it correlates somehow to _natural cycles of climate change_ then it may remain relevant despite propagated 'modernization theory'.

      Scientists from the Institute of Cytology and Genetics of the SB RAS, together with colleagues from Germany, the USA and France, conducted the largest genetic study of carriers of the Scythian culture from all over Eurasia in order to understand the demographic foundations of the history of the Scythians. It turned out that the Scythians from different ends of the Eurasian steppe are closer to each other than to other peoples, and their descendants belong to the speakers of the Turkic languages. The research results are presented in the journal Nature Communications.
      Scientists worked with genome-wide data on eight individuals and mitochondrial DNA of 96 people who lived in the first millennium BC in the Eurasian steppe, from the Black Sea region to Altai.
      It turned out that behind the unity of the Scythian culture of the Iron Age, traced by archaeological discoveries, lies a genetic unity. Despite the fact that the Scythians of eastern and western Eurasia originally belonged to different peoples, over time, the flow of genes, going in both directions, led to the unification of this people throughout the steppe. As for the origin of the Scythians, the researchers distinguish two main components: the peoples of the Yamnaya culture (Eurasian nomads of the Bronze Age) and the peoples of East Asia (northern Siberia).
      As for the descendants of the Scythians, genetically closest to them are modern populations living near the Scythian burials excavated by archaeologists - which indicates some continuity between population groups. The descendants of the Western Scythians can be found among the various peoples of the Caucasus and Central Asia, and the eastern ones - only among the Turkic-speaking peoples (the Kypchak language group). The last link requires a separate study: it is usually believed that the expansion of the Turkic languages in Eurasia began much later, from the 6th century AD. The influence of the Scythians on the ethnogenesis of the Turkic peoples can be clarified in the framework of future genetic studies.
      Потомки Cкифов принадлежат к носителям Tюркских языков

      Ученые из Института цитологии и генетики СО РАН вместе с коллегами из Германии, США и Франции провели крупнейшее генетическое исследование носителей скифской культуры со всей Евразии, чтобы понять демографические основы истории скифов. Оказалось, что скифы с разных концов евразийской степи друг другу ближе, чем другим народам, а их потомки принадлежат к носителям тюркских языков. Результаты исследования представлены в журнале Nature Communications.
      Ученые работали с полногеномными данными по восьми индивидам и митоходриальной ДНК 96 человек, живших в первом тысячелетии до нашей эры в евразийской степи, от Причерноморья до Алтая.
      Выяснилось, что за единством скифской культуры железного века, прослеживаемым по археологическим открытиям, лежит и генетическое единство. Несмотря на то, что скифы восточной и западной Евразии исходно принадлежали к различным народам, со временем поток генов, шедший в обеих направлениях, привел к унификации этого народа по всей степи. Что касается происхождения скифов, то исследователи выделяют два основных компонента: народы ямной культуры (евразийские кочевники бронзового века) и народы восточной Азии (северной Сибири).
      Что же касается потомков скифов, то генетически ближе всего к ним современные популяции, обитающие недалеко от скифских захоронений, раскопанных археологами - что говорит о некоторой преемственности между группами населения. Потомков западных скифов можно найти среди различных народов Кавказа и Средней Азии, а восточных - лишь среди тюркоязычных народов (кыпчакская языковая группа). Последняя связка требует отдельного исследования: обычно считается, что экспансия тюркских языков в Евразии началась гораздо позже, от VI века нашей эры. Влияние скифов на этногенез тюркских народов может быть выяснено в рамках будущих генетических исследований.
