Scytho-Siberian Culture

The Scytho-Siberian Culture refers to a group of nomadic societies that thrived across Central Asia and Siberia from approximately the 9th century BCE to the 4th century CE. Known for their skilled horseback riding, metalwork, and distinctive art featuring animal motifs, they played a vital role in ancient Eurasian trade and cultural exchange. Their society was largely centered on mobility and pastoralism, with elaborate burial mounds called kurgans that reveal their social hierarchy and craftsmanship. This culture significantly influenced future civilizations in Eurasia through their innovations in warfare, art, and trade networks.
