The Scythians or Scyths were a group of Iranian people, known as the Eurasian nomads, who inhabited the western and central Eurasian steppes from about the 9th century BC until about the 1st century BC. Scythia was the Greek term for the grasslands north and east of the Black Sea. The Scythian languages belonged to the Eastern branch of the Iranian languages. Scythian art is distinctive. The best-known account of the Scythians is in Book IV of the Histories of Herodotus.
One of the most famous Scythians was the sage Anacharsis, a famous philosopher in the ancient world.
