@untoldhistory4: The Scythians were a nomadic people who dominated the Eurasian steppe from around the 9th century BCE to the 3rd century BCE. They were expert horsemen and archers, known for their mobility, hit-and-run tactics, and mastery of mounted warfare. Their territory stretched from the Black Sea to Central Asia, and they often raided or traded with settled civilizations like the Persians, Greeks, and Chinese. In terms of power, the Scythians were a serious force. They defeated the Persian king Darius I when he invaded their lands around 513 BCE, using their superior mobility to avoid direct confrontation and wear down the Persian army. They also played a key role in steppe geopolitics, influencing later nomadic groups like the Huns and Mongols. While they were eventually absorbed by other cultures, their military prowess and influence on steppe warfare lasted for centuries. #HistoryTime #slideshow #fy #fyp #foryoy #scynthians
