嗯,刚才搜索了一下,斯基泰的考古确实支持父系社会,证据包括男女合葬,国王随葬品更高等,有妻子甚至多妻随葬。而女王和女战士随葬品没那么多,没有血腥的殉葬。
* m( s7 C; C* ]) ^) fOne thing that differentiates the tombs of royal Scythian queens from that of the kings is the complete lack of brutal sacrifices.

Russian scientists found the 2,000-year-old mummified remains of a Scythian queen elegantly laid out in white silk alongside horse harnesses, a mirror, dishes- and a small ceremonial container of cannabis. The July 13 New York Times report on the find says archeologists believe Scythian pot "was smoked for pleasure and used in pagan rituals..." ( K1 q" V, R9 Y M; Z1 V2 u

extraordinary rugs were also found in the frozen Scythian tombs. One rug had a border frieze with a repeated composition of a horseman

Considering the barbaric nature of these people it is interesting that she is a female, but perhaps really not all that surprising, as many of the peaceful goddesses became more fierce in the transition from matriarchy to patriarchy.

The moon-sickle used in mythical castrations of God was a Scythian weapon. A long-handled form therefore came to be called a scythe, and was assigned to the Grim Reaper, who was originally Rhea Kronia [the old crone] in the guise of Mother Time, or Death- the Earth who devoured her own children. Scythian women apparently used such weapons in battle as well as religious ceremonies and agriculture.

所以也不排除这支部落更早从母系转为父系的可能。

另外有学者认为亚马逊女战士指的是Sarmatians,Sarmatians曾经吞并同化了斯基泰部落的一支,所以这两支部落名有时被混用。考古证据支持Sarmatians是男女平等的社会。 |
