The Scythians is a large group of nomadic tribes which lived in Eurasian steppes in the 9th-1st century B.C. Their main living area was situated on the territory of modern Ukraine. These tribes were very militant and rich. They are widely known for their extensive use of gold in clothing and jewelry. The Scythians buried the dead with plenty of gold jewelry, household items, and other treasures. Modern archeologists have found Scythian burial mounds and put the finds in museums. In this article, you can see the photos of some Scythian traditional clothing and jewelry.
