5 Q! ~6 e9 N9 }. F2 H8 W. L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。

5 ~5 Q( z1 I% J( KIn the 1994 November issue of High Times, staff reporter Bill Weinberg reported on a more recent Scythian discovery:

T8 E% sThe 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..." ( ~$ q- q/ ^1 r4 s

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.

, _& t* x6 t9 JThe 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)...6 {( N2 r- R0 x8 r
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. - B1 Q3 v0 U3 W/ b) J+ Q" u

所以也不排除这支部落更早从母系转为父系的可能。6 V2 i1 ?+ ?4 B- ]$ B* i2 I) O
6 ~' k4 }/ C `: I4 z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。 |
