Toward the middle of the first millennium B.C., one of the most vivid Scythoid cultures of Eastern Europe evolved along the banks of the Don River [Podon'e]—the Middle Don culture of the sixth—third centuries B.C. Its bearers—the Middle Don tribes—played a distinct role in the ethnopolitical and cultural history of the forest-steppe Don region in the Scythian period. Their descendants comprised a significant portion—if not the greater part—of the population along the upper reaches of the Don [Verkhnego Podon'ia] in the subsequent Sarmatian epoch as well
