During the heyday of ancient Greek civilization, the Ukrainian steppes were inhabited by Scythian nomads, who, according to legend, descended from the first man to appear in Scythia, Targitai, son of Zeus. Scythian horsemen controlled vast areas, subjugated different peoples and raided neighboring lands. In this book you will learn who the Scythian warriors were, how and what they fought, whether the Scythian Amazons really existed and whether the Scythians were the oldest cataphractaries - the heavy armored cavalry of Eurasia. The publication tells about Scythian weapons - the famous Akinaki and asymmetrical bows, deadly arrows and sharp spears, scaly armor and trophy helmets of Scythian warriors. Reading this book, you will learn about the main campaigns of the Scythian army: the Transcaucasian campaigns, the war with the Persians and the conflict with Philip of Macedon, as well as the lesser-known wars of Scythian history. The publication is intended for everyone who is interested in the ancient history of Ukraine, the history of weapons and military affairs.
