Publisher Description: This detailed study compares the results of previously published excavations in what is termed the North Pontic region (Southern Russia and the Ukraine). It explores the question of whether a 'Scythian' ethnic grouping can be identified and its culture defined. It also examines issues of Greek colonization and asks what is actually meant when objects are identified as being in a 'Greek style'. |
