Scythian (Sarmatian) language is the Proto-Slavonic one.

Other Proto-Slavonic dialects are the languages of the Pelasges (the writing of Linear A, and its decorative version on the Phaistos disk) and of the Etruscans. The symbols depicted from the ancient cultures of the Scythians, Sarmatians and Sindi (Meotians), and their descendants, Russians and Circassians. The names of the three sons in the version of the myth about the semi-serpent goddess are Agathyrsos, Gelonos and Skythes. The Circassian language is an Indo-European one. A calendar record may be inscribed on a mirror of Meotian-Sarmatian period (1st - 2nd c. A.D.) Saint John Chrysostomus informed in 4th c. A.D. that the Scythians translated the New Testament into the native language. Then Saint Cyril (Constantine) received the books of the New Testament and the Psalter written by the Russian letters (lit. rous'skymi pismeny) from a Christian at the Crimea in 9th c. A.D.

The structure of the Scythian society is registered in a Russian fairy-tale, Ivan Bykovich, as well. Three brothers were born from the golden fish (the Russian Dazh'bog, the Scythian Targitaos). Their names are Ivan-charevich (Ivan, the son of a tsar (king)), Ivan, kuharkin syn (Ivan, the son of a cook), and Ivan Bykovich (Ivan, the son of the bull). The brothers were driving to the river Smorodina (*S moro 'Near the sea/death'), i.e. Kuban. One can reconstruct the name of the Scythian god corresponding to the Greek god Ares. According to Herodotus (The History: Book IV), this god was incarnated in an iron sword akinakes placed on the top of a "temple" (a big heap of brushwood). the god Agin (Agni) = the Indo-Aryan god Agni 'Fire'. This name is preserved in the Circassian pagan god's name Ahin 'the protector of cattle'. A priest holding a knife is represented on a seal of the Aryan state Mitanni; here the sign of the god Agni is shown, too

THE ANCIENT LOST CITIES OF LIBYA AND TUNISIA Greco-Roman Civilization Between the Desert and the Sea The Ancient Lost Cities of Libya In ancient times, the palm-studded coast of Libya and Tunisia was home to some of the greatest civilizations that flourished in the Mediterranean. Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines and others settled here and built cities that today reveal the power and prosperity they attained. Travelers to Libya and Tunisia will find the remains of Greek cities that would not be out of place in Greece itself, as well as some of the most splendid Roman sites found anywhere in the Mediterranean. Founded 3,000 years ago by the Carthaginians, the city flourished under the Romans, and reached a degree of splendor that rivaled Rome itself after the city’s native son, Lucius Septimius Severus, became emperor in 193 A.D.

In the 2nd century AD, some groups of Bulgars migrated to the European continent and settled on the plains between the Caspian and Black Seas. Between AD 351 and 389, some of these crossed the Caucasus and settled in Armenia.

Swept by the Hunnish wave at the beginning of the 4th century AD, other Bulgar tribes broke loose from their settlements in central Asia to migrate to the fertile lands along the lower valleys of the Donets and the Don rivers and the Azov seashore, assimilating what was left of the Sarmatians. The Sauromatae of the Iranian south were a multi-ethnic confederacy mentioned in classical authors from Herodotus onward. They ranged at greatest reported extent from the line of the Vistula and the mouth of the Danube eastward to the Volga, and from the mysterious domain of the Hyperboreans in the north southward to the shores of the Black and Caspian seas, including the region between them as far as the Caucasus mountains. With the boundary between the so-called Centum-Satem isogloss in the Indo-European languages apparently split at the European border of the Sarmatians. Parthia
