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。& S$ R; `5 e( O% {
One thing that differentiates the tombs of royal Scythian queens from that of the kings is the complete lack of brutal sacrifices.

The 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..."

extraordinary rugs were also found in the frozen Scythian tombs. One rug had a border frieze with a repeated composition of a horseman5 I' p" t, P+ d& t X

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.2 Y3 [' [9 V9 ~' B& n# w
In The Woman's Book of Myths and Secrets, Barbara Walker writes* Q [7 e9 f- F- }% o/ x. h
about the Scythian religion. _" |+ \4 i, W' z
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)...
! u$ E5 i8 U' }0 C7 U! w8 p' {+ pThe 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.

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。 |
