“Diviners” of Scythia (literary image and cultural phenomenon)
Ancient written sources contain references to Scythian “diviners”. These specialists in the mystical sphere were divided into two groups, differing in their methods of fortune telling. The first group (traditional) used willow twigs. The second group, consisting of Enarees — effeminate men, divined using strips of lime bark. Most information has been preserved about the Enarees. The reports of Herodotus and Pseudo-Hippocrates stand out with speci…
Scythians and magic (according to Herodotus)
Herodotus in his "History" provides a relatively detailed description of the everyday and spiritual life of the Scythians, as well as the tribes that were part of the Scythian confederation - the Massagetae and the Issedones. Additionally, the work contains observations about the realities of Asian nomads. Therefore, based on Herodotus' reports, it is possible to form an idea of the worldview of the ancient nomadic society. A number of Scythian c…
Shields of the Pazyryk culture
Among the artifacts of the Pazyryk culture (VI-III centuries BC), battle shields attract attention. As a rule, they come from rich burial mounds. Items have the shape of an elongated rectangle or square, sometimes with a rounded top. There is a belt loop in the center. Shields are ornamented with zigzags, rhombuses, braids-like ornaments, crosses, triangles. Items can be divided into two groups. The first group consists of items 35,5-44 cm long a…
“Paraboloids”, “lattice figures” and “poles with canvases” (petroglyphic images and ethnographic parallels)
The article is focused on the study of the geometric petroglyphs of Southern Siberia and Mongolia. All of them are characterized by the presence of anthropomorphic features. The petroglyphs were divided into three complexes. The first complex is a parabola with a recess at the top and a pair of “legs” at the bottom. The second one is a combination of rectangles and trapezoids with “legs”. Sometimes they have “heads”, “hands” and “vulvas”. The thi…
Horse's hoof motif in the art of ancient nomads (genesis and symbolism)
Among the motives of the ancient nomads’s art, the horse’s hoof attracts special attention of specialists. The sign of hoof is reproduced in the form of a schematic image of a part of a leg (sometimes a pair of hind legs) or an abstract pattern of the hoof’s footprint. Several regional cultural and stylistic areas can be distinguished. The first area is located in the Sayano-Altai region and adjacent territories. The figurative element of the hoo…
