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。- o" s! l2 |' O5 Y' X8 x
One thing that differentiates the tombs of royal Scythian queens from that of the kings is the complete lack of brutal sacrifices.
" m R( ^' g9 z1 aIn the 1994 November issue of High Times, staff reporter Bill Weinberg reported on a more recent Scythian discovery:

[- s+ o2 G. c4 Y/ H7 rThe newest find is from the remote Altai mountains of Siberia- specifically, from the archeological dig at Ukok, near where the borders of Russia, China, Mongolia, and Kazakhstan meet. 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..." 1 T; b1 O5 {3 R* U$ {) C, I% i

Tabiti-Hestia is the only deity who figures in Scythian art. 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.

0 j2 b& P( ^. t! Wabout the Scythian religion.: P) S8 O2 h! _% V \9 l" s
The only deity shown in Scythian art was the Great Goddess, whom the Greeks called Artemis, or Hestia or Gaea (The Earth)... Scythians were governed by Priestess-Queens, usually buried alone in richly furnished Kurgans (queen graves)...: ?/ I; R; ?2 ?( B$ G& k- m8 m% U
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. : X8 f" I$ q0 ]8 T2 }6 ^) u1 m

所以也不排除这支部落更早从母系转为父系的可能。& S+ B$ ] N$ ?3 N. ?
