By the way, Eurasian nomads have very similar arts 12:30. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2jHXL-VjfI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxzI5RVK59A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DC0jTqYguUI In a sense, there was a similar story in the Bulgar-Tatar (Kipchak) ornamental art. In the 9th century, they adopted Islam. In Islam, the image of animals was prohibited, so the style of the ornament began to be depersonalized. Animalistic motifs, as it were, began to be embedded in a floral ornament, uniting in a common meaning. Modern ornamental art can be like incoherent Scandinavian knit. But the general form and symbols preserve a very ancient archaic structure. In academic sources, you can find a description of triangles, circles, some lines and forms, so on, since for nomads each line, shape and flower had a sacred meaning.

@celtichistorydecoded Historically, the Scythians were destroyed by the Sarmatians. The Sarmatians destroyed nomadic sites, but they rarely attacked mixed Greek Black Sea settlements. So the Scythians in a sense existed after. But they were fishermen and traders. Then, in the end, they were absorbed into the Goths of Germanarich. (Chernyakhov culture). There was a separate paper on Moldovian samples. They mainly turned out to be from the Bronze Age Srubnaya culture, probably the early Saka assimilated the local population in Europe. In fact, modern Western Europeans do not so rarely have 10-20% DNA from the Scythians, but they will probably be associated with those Moldavians, but not with Asian pastoralists (aka Don-Altai), like the Tatar Bulgar-Kipchaks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVHYhSVMI8E
