Brilliant horsemen and great fighters, the Scythians were nomadic horsemen who ranged wide across the grasslands of the Asian steppe from the Altai mountains in the east to the Great Hungarian Plain in the first millennium BC. Their steppe homeland bordered on a number of sedentary states to the south - the Chinese, the Persians and the Greeks - and there were, inevitably, numerous interactions between the nomads and their neighbours. The Scythians fought the
Persians on a number of occasions, in one battle killing their king and on another occasion driving the invading army of Darius the Great from the steppe.

Title: Detailed and not Boring
Date: Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2020
Review: I would have to admit that any historic book that delves into archeology tend to be dry and monotonous to read. However, this author has done what I had thought nearly improbable, he blends archeology and ancient texts to tell the story of the ancient people in a way that is captivating and not mind-numbing.

Title: An excellent and one of a kind resource

Review: The Scythians are not the focus of most other historical works. This book is well written and wonderfully produced (beautiful illustrations and insightful diagrams and maps). The author provides in depth consideration of the history of the Scythians, and of the history of the historical study of the Scythians (thank you Tzars). All the relevant issues are dealt with; culture, general movement of peoples, terrain and its relationship to these peoples, religious beliefs, interactions with other cultures of the period, etc etc. No stone is left unturned, if there is a stone to turn that is (as in historical work sometimes the stones are just not there). I am pleased to have this book in my library.

Title: Somewhat Useful
Date: Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2020
Review: This book provides some good basic understanding about the Scythian people and their culture. However, the author surprisingly does not give much detail about the true origin of these people and the fact that the Scythians were of Iranian origin who spoke an eastern Iranian dialect and had the same religion of other Iranian tribes. Scythians were actually the close cousins of the Persians. Again, the author in his book implies that the Scythians killed Cyrus the great of Persia in a battle! but he fails to mention that this is only a story solely based on Herodotus accounts which Herodotus himself admits to it being one of many versions of Cyrus's death that he heard from a supposedly reliable source who told him no one was there to see the aftermath!! An alternative account from Xenophon's Cyropaedia contradicts the story of Herodotus, claiming that Cyrus died peaceably at his capital. Also, according to the author of this book, The Persian Army under Darius was driven out of steppes by the Scythians! This simply is not true. First of all, because of the Scythians revolt and threat to disrupt the trade between Central Asia and the shores of the Black sea which was under control of the Persians, Darius had no choice but to invade the territories inhabited by the Scythians. Since the Scythians were a nomadic people and did not have a standing or professional army, they always avoided the Persians in close and direct confrontation and would gave way due to their mobile lifestyle and lack of any settlement (except in Gelonus). The Scythians only used the scorched earth tactic against the Persian forces. Contrary to what the esteemed author of the book implies, and as it was mentioned earlier, there was no direct battle between the Persians and the Scythians. However, the Persians conquered much of the Scythians cultivated lands and scattered their allies, forcing the Scythians to repect the Persian force. In the end, Darius halted farther advance and withdrew to the Persian empire but not before creating a defence line against the Scythians. I just have to say, it is a bit of mystery to me why the author did not consult so so many credible sources which are out there for his research at least regarding the Persian's Scythian campaign.

Title: Solid, readable academic treatment of great steppe nomad empire
Date: Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2021
Review: This is a highly detailed account of the Scythians, a nomadic warrior empire that flourished from 9C to 2C BCE. If you are into classical history, you see many references to them that Iβve always found mysterious. In this book, Cunliffe offers a grand synthesis of the archaeological evidence on them measured against the tidbits mentioned in classical sources. For the most part, it is very interesting and well written, only rarely bogging down in the descriptions of burials and artifacts that make academic studies such a slog.
The Scythians emerged in the 9C BCE, coming somewhere from the east within the great steppes that stretch from Mongolia to Hungary. As nomad warriors, they depended heavily on their mastery of the horse as well as a particularly effective bow. They raided and foraged, accumulating sufficient wealth to produce some phenomenally beautiful artifacts that were buried with their leaders. They disappeared in their turn from attacks by eastern tribes in 2C BCE, but made their mark fighting the Persians, Greeks and Romans.
Because they were an illiterate culture, the little that is written about them comes from Herodotus and a few other antique sources. Cunliffe avoids flights of fancy, sticking to the facts. While at times colorless, he at least offers a clear understanding of the steppe and how it shaped our history. Invaders came from the east in search of more fertile, warmer lands to the west, displacing and absorbing the peoples that had done so in earlier generations. I had never realized that this was a sociological type of empiric endeavor, the most famous of which was Genghis Khan.
The book is lavishly furnished with maps, illustrations and photos that are great fun as well as necessary adjuncts to the text. The gold crafts are incredible to behold, a sign of a unique civilization no matter how little we can truly know of it.
A curious gap in the coverage is about their language and origins. I have assumed that they were a Persic people, speaking their own dialect that only resembled that of the great Empire that they fought to the south. It remained unclear to me how they grew as a people with a coherent culture.
This is a very good book for students of antiquity and archaeology. A model of clear exposition and disciplined reasoning. Most of it is a joy to read. Recommended.

Title: greasy fingerprints on dust jacket
Date: Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2021
Review: It's a beautiful book, and I can't wait to have a look inside, sold to me in "new" condition.....however in taking it out of the shipping box, the front dust jacket is bent, and it has some dried substance on the back and greasy fingerprints on front & back dust jacket..... and now I've set it aside & am contemplating returning it, kind of worried & sick to my stomach. In this day & age of Covid, amazon's suppliers & packers should be much more careful about things like that & should wash their hands! Really???? Quite bummed out because I really wanted to read this book.
