History of Central Asian Nomads

[kespec]

central asia has a history that is underrated, ignored.

[shahidinterliner]

Fuck the Chinese and Russian communists

[SlowKZ]

With our land came the Scythians, the Huns (Attila), Genghis Khan and Timur. Our queen Tomiris defeated the Persian army of Cyrus the Great, the battle itself described by Herodotus. We have much to be proud of!

[SlowKZ]

You can choose to regard us as savages, but we were able to write at a time when Europe is able to do only the Greeks! We changed his writing in the 13th century, after converted to Islam and began to write in Arabic. The fact that writing in Turkey (Istanbul), quietly reading in Turkestan (Kazakhstan), it has been written in Kazan (Tatar), read in Azerbaijan! We are part of world culture. Only ignorant people will call us savages!

[SlowKZ]

I do not know English - so I write through Google translator. I live in Central Asia, the Scythians - this is my culture. We have created a musical instrument kobyz - he more than 6000 years. We had a settlement, the early city. Great find - the "golden man" was found here! We had their runic alphabet, which is transcribed from Denmark scientist Wilhelm Ludwig Peter Thomsen.

[asianhordes]

Scythians could take the idea but they improved to single horse archer style, but they didnt use saddle and used straight sword. Later nations developed better saddle, curved blade, more sophisticated bows etc.

So we can see that not only the scythians or iranians are the only clever people and everyone else is sutpid and just copied great culture.

Everyone added its own to stepp culture before and after.

And sorry but today iranians has less direct connection with scythians than others :)

[asianhordes]

Plus all of the great cultures are just concentration of world culture. They just copied of the culture of previous nations, as those did before, and improve it a bit. Or combined the use of inventions in a way which brought them wellfare. So every great culture is world culture but in particular selection or taste.

Therefore we see assirian pics with horse archery before the frist mention of scythians, but they did it by 2 horses. One rider lead the other while he shooted.

[asianhordes]

So bulgrains has language similarity with scythians (saga). So if we use the same method we could call them Bulgarians.......frome now scythians were bulgarians :)))

Come on scythians were scythians and it is rater a group. It is like european...just a life style...with more or less genetical connection but not necesserily relatives...just like in eruope or I could mention the muslim world.

Like or not we have to share the scythian heritage!!!!!!

[asianhordes]

Some nation is like son of the scythians (lets say osetians, bulgarians or what ever) and today iranians are like nephew of scythians which is a bit less.

SO WHO THE HELL STEALS WHOSE HISTORY??????

So several eastern european and west asian nations (where the scythians assimilated and disappeared) are not stealing for sure! But I am not sure about iranians, even if the science in tricky way name them back from the present day iranans, just because language similarity.

[asianhordes]

baltic or germanoid people (which may be caucasoid but culturally get far from caucasians in Caucasus :) ) and maybe this is how slavs were born.

Maybe it wasnt exactly like this. But I am sure that scythians contributed to the culture of several of nations and to their dna.

So why science call scythians iranians reflecting back the name of the present day nation, when other nations have more direct descendace from scythians....

[asianhordes]

So anyhing can happen.

So maybe caucasoid people lived north of caucasus, lets say pre-scythians. Some tribe moved to iran mixed with local people and copied the high culture already existing there and imporved it too. But they reserved the languge of prescythisans quite well.

The remaining people north of caucasus could become scythians, some groups maybe mixed with orientals, they become they become turks. Others closer to europe become bulgrians, hungarians or mixed more with lets say...

[asianhordes]

And we know that every nation today and even in the past is mixture of previous nations. And you never know what will be the result of the language mixture by it. I mean you can find every kind of examples. E:g. scotish took their rulers language how it was. French celtic people took basicaly their rulers language but with modification. Despite of their rules just mixed into them as a minority. The norman minority rulers of english adopt the language of common people, but modified it. etc.

[asianhordes]

Not mentioning hungarians, bulgarians, basks, finns, who speak totally different language considering their origin and some of them origins even out of europe.

So now. We know that Saga scythians spoke language similar to iranian. Ok. But we dont have info about the rest, and we talk about bigger area than europe which was the example and even longer time.

So were scythian called nations all one kind??????

Dont think so!

[asianhordes]

So what interpretation could you make?????

You find similar lifestyle everywhere, so you would think that was one nation or tribes of one kind, and therefore they spoke the same language.

BUT in fact the origin and history of european nations are quite different. No matter e.g. that greek and norwegian classifed into the same language group. They have nothing to do with echother directly in their histroy ever! And they dont understand eachother even a bit. 

[asianhordes]

Oh my God! Everywhere this crap comments about history stealing. Come on we talking about sometimes times thousands years back, and we know sometimes few dozens of archeological sites and relatively little written records. We can missintrepret things very easily.

Just imagine: you are an archeologist and have dozen of findings from europe last 1000 years and you know just the language of one group, lets say italaian, and few names from other part of europe. And forget everything what u know now

[solo141984]

you turkish people are the biggest fudging lying pathetic mothaf around..

scythians are my ancestors... arian... they are written in the shahnameh book of kings... you dare to steal my arian iranian heritage..

turkish dna is not arian it´s mongolian and shit

get the fudge out of here..

ps... turkish people are among most uneducated people in the world. there history mainly exists by mouth to mouth marketing..

you can´t rewrite history only because you are jealous of the iranians

[GurbetciGenc100]

@solo141984 How can you speak about turks? Turks are not a folk but a race. This race have more then 69 biggest greatest empires in the history. There is 500 million Turks in the world. And what is Aryan? totally 10 million people? 1 million? Check you own people, you are 100% mixing and thats a proud. 60% of Iran have a Turkic origin, Azaris, Afshars, Turkmens, Qashqais. How can you forget Shah Ismail, Nader Shah of Iran, Mahmut of Gazne?? The history of Iran is created by Turkic kings.

[solo141984]

@GurbetciGenc100 where do you get your information from.. the local turkish alcohol distributor..wake up son.. Mankind does not benefit by having Barbarians coming and destroying all cultural progress.. this is the heritage you have and leave.. you shall remain who you are.. sjamanistic barbar.. now your place..

[attilayhn]

@solo141984 uneducated??? yeah, we've seen how educated you were back in the 70s.... weren't you the ones that dethroned and exiled your king and voted for an ignorant, unscientific, arab wannabe Islamic government?? :D :D Now you cant drink alcohol, you cant say that you denounce god and have to worship arabic culture in your shitty third world cuntry! Thats how Iran is educated PUHAHAHAHAHAH!!!

[solo141984]

@attilayhn why do you like to show your ignorance and stupidity every time.. by saying this you reveal your knowledge about the subject.. just stick to the jerking off behind the computer.. yes all true.. but know that you are hypocrite.. Iranians fight the true fight against arabs and islam.. you go stick to europa and israel.. talking all tough while on wikileaks says Erdogan shit's in his pants for IR regime.. and he as an army... what do poor iranian people have..we never give up

[frsn4]

@solo141984 jealous of iranians? LOL

[MrEmretti]

@solo141984 hey moron , shahname writes about Alp Er Tunga , the great king of türks (schytians) who had fucked iranians(aryans) many times at past ! so shut up your fcking mouth ! schytians , i mean eskitler in türkish were nation of the Khan Alp er tunga

[SHINYABOY]

if u love nature u might have some sort of mongloid or native american blood in you

[cCcTuraniacCc]

of course if we talk about an history,firstly we have to remember GOKTURKS ( Blue Turks )

Long live Turkic nation

Long live Turania

Long live Altaic Race

[tugsuufre]

History? I dont see any history in these pictures

[TheKingfishersLeader]

I am an Uzbek and I am the son of Ancient Scythians I am proud of It, I am proud of our horsemen and Women who were and are still brave and hard working people. though i am not racist but I love my history and people.

[yuukoku1981]

Those beautifull ancient times!!!:)5Rates

[1993kerim]

TURK

[kirilmv]

Can you send me the web address of the site you upload the pics???

[Shahinovich]

I see turkish culture almost similar to mine, and I feel comfortable when I visit Turkey. It's like my country.

But for example, in Arabia I feel like an alien. I speak a little arabic, but still it is very different then turkic language. But in Turkey I feel at home.

[Shahinovich]

There will be a leader who will unite all turks once and for all...hope someday. Until then it is pointless to fight over it. It is unrealistic. Endless disputes and net-fights. Or choose me as a leader of Turk Nations and I will unite them in 5 minutes. Come down to earth and be a little realistic. We need a better approach than these useless youtube fights.

[DanialWali]

We should be united under Islam. The turks from turkey and the turks from central asia are completely different. Both culturally, linguistically(writing), and racially. We should see ourselves as one Muslim nation extending from Mauritania to Indonesia which is greater than mere racial or cultural ties, but sacred ties.

[Shahinovich]

I think linguistically turkish language is very similar to central asian languages, at least 80% if not 100%. I speak turkish, uzbek, I can easily understand other turkic languages. Even Mongolian and Yakut or Tuvan languages also have same words as in Turkish language. Religion is different story.

[DanialWali]

That's why I put writing in brackets, the turks in Turkey write in the latin script and the Turks in Central Asia and western China write in the Arabic script.

[Shahinovich]

alphabet does not play much role in this. The most important is the language. Turkey used to use Arabic alphabet but then they changed to Latin. Countries in central Asia used Arabic alphabet, but in soviet union they started using Cyrillic. Alphabet has nothing to do with ethnicity. Turks share a common language, ethnic and cultural similarities.

Why do you think Turkish language is similar to Central Asian languages and all the way to Siberia?

[DanialWali]

If you are given a letter written in the latin, cyrillic, or Arabic alphabet and you only know one script, don't you think that would impede communication? However, the Turkic languages are very common in everything else. Yes alphabet has nothing to do with ethnicity, but the Turks in Turkey are far more urbanized, secular, and less traditional than the their bretheren in Central Asia or Siberia. Culturally they are somewhat seperate.

[Shahinovich]

"If" condition is unrealistic. Most people these days know latin alphabet, and they can read turkish very easily. Most people even know basic English. Let me compare the connection between Turkey and Central Asian/Siberia Nations. The relation is similar to my relation with my cousins.

You didn't answer my question.

Why do you think Turkish language is similar to Central Asian languages and all the way to Siberia?

[DanialWali]

They are common because they belong to same branch of Turkic families. What I differ is your opinion that Turkic peoples are more or less the same. The Turks in Turkey are far different, not language wise, but socially and economically than their bretheren in Central Asia.

[Shahinovich]

Yes, you are right.

[ceyhunPak]

Because we are Turks. English idiots say to us turkish. Our homeland sibiria forest, middle assia prairies and mongolia steps. We are not turkic or turkish. We are Turks. We had got runic alphabet called gokturk alphabet. Etrusc went to Italy then teach ethnic italians runik alphabet then italians learn use to alphabet and found latin alphabet. So we can easly understand latin alphabet because it's turk orgin.

[ftcolorado]

The Latin alphabet came from the Phoenicians, I believe. The Phoenicians created the world's first alphabetical written language around 1500BC and it spread along the Mediterranean to the Greeks and the Romans got it from them.

[OkurkaBinLadin]

@ceyhunPak You may be Turco-mongols linguistically and mentally ;-) Genetically, you are Anatolians.

9% of mongoloid DNA doesnt make Genghis Khans.

[Norguy77]

@OkurkaBinLadin there are some people in Turkey with a high amount of Central Asian blood flowing in their weghins. My Father are from a place called Elbistan in northern Karamanmares(sh) and he's got high chinbones and dark, slightly mongolian looking eyes. He looks like he's from Uzbekistan or Turkmenistan and i do too :).

But you'r right, there isn't mutch Central asian blood left in Turkey, but we've still got the spirit from the steppes.

[Norguy77]

@Norguy77 My father is , Sorry about that

[OkurkaBinLadin]

@Norguy77 Now, that´s respectable, not hateful response ;-) Thanks for your input, Norguy.

[thracianglad]

you sounds funny :D

[OkurkaBinLadin]

@DanialWali Are you aware, that millions of turkic speakers are believers in Christ or original shamanism?

Yet you would enjoy company of Indonesians more, cause of Islam? I call bullshit.

[DanialWali]

@OkurkaBinLadin You can "call bullshit" all you want. Sacred ties are much more important to us Muslims than racial ties. We are still Turks, not Arabs, but Islam, i.e. submission to one God, is the religion of Mankind. The uniting force among the Turks recently was Islam, both in Central Asia and in Anatolia.

What's wrong with Indonesians, are you prejuidiced or something? The prophet said, "Just as the fingers on the hand are equal so is mankind equal."

[infiltratorr]

afghans r central asian but descendies of

skytharians.

[Rasissten]

Mongoloid nomads were murderous savages. White nomads settled and developed civilization. What have the descendants of the Mongols built? Absolutely nothing.

[Sinotibetan]

ROFLMAO white nomads didnt build anything, the definition of "nomad" is someone who wanders around in a tent. and the tocharians got their ass saved b the chinese, they even submitted to the chinese empire in thanks for liberation from the turks

[Shahinovich]

Stupidest comment on youtube...go read some books...skinheads and nazis are murderous savages!

[deosaiplains]

Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan and Azerbijan should abolish the borders between them and later on combine to form one country. And whenever possible, Uighur region (now under chinese control) should be assimilated into this region too.

Live in peace, promote peace and protect peace.

[3choBlast3r]

WTF? iran, afghanistan and pakistan ? have you ever heard of the TURAN? those country's aren't Turkic/Turkish or have connections with the Altaic race as far as I know. It's Turkey, turkmenstan etc. even hungary belongs to the altaic race ... but iran afganistan and pakistan don't.

[deosaiplains]

3choBlaster: When did I say these conutries are Turkic. People like you have created wars between different races and religions and will always do the same. People living in these countires have very similar culture and if world can get rid of idiots like you, we all can live in peace with each other. Ideally there should be no border between any country.

Live in peace, promote peace and protect peace.

[3choBlast3r]

fuck you jack ass, wtf do you mean by people like me?

People start war not me faggot, I you called allmost only Turkic countries, and iran and afghanistan? you fool don't you know what kind of war that would provoke? Kurd, Turks, Arabs different cultures, the kurds hate the turks, the kurds hate the turks, the arabs think they are better than every one ... your truly stupid.. The turan nations are about one country one culture etc, people that can agree with each other

[infiltratorr]

if u masn cebtral asia yup afghanistan is and was central asia, but iran and pakistan is not. pak is south asia and iran is middle east.

[louyht7]

central asian warrior rule btw the song sound familiar sound like chinese theme song 4 a movie

[yereke888]

Nice job..I'm proud to be kazakh(C A nomads)

[ruladrise]

There are no such record killing 1000 of kyrgiz on Orkhon scripts! Kul Tekin says:

Ey Ulu Budun : "Siz cok kaganin arkasindan gittiniz Varlikliyken öldünüz , ölürken sürüldünüz .

Bunun icin kirqiz kaganini gece yagmaladik ve oracikta öldürdük "

and the manas you talk about are Kirgiz legend holders!

Like Dede Korkut !

Its legend and totaly Türkic!

[azikkgz]

Gokturks tried to discriminate kyrgyzs,especially Kul-Tegin,who murdered thousands of kyrgyzs,but history showed that it is impossible to eliminate kyrgyzs.Manas and all kyrgyzs came to central asia and cleaned kyrgyzstan from all shit that now living in Turkey.

[Ataturkistan]

Altaiiiiiiiiiiiiij

[prinznevsky]

dude, the turkish peoples AREN'T Native Americans. DNA can't account for language and culture. If you maintain the train of thoughtthat you're going on, then logically you have to conclude that we (ALL of humanity) is African...

[onogurlar]

We are the original ANCIENT PEOPLE in the earth.

[Catalina1956]

And let us not forget one major fact that DNA is now proving. These people also crossed over into what is today's ALASKA and CANADA...they are THE NATIVE AMERICANS! So, they are now Eskimos, Navajoes, and Mexicans...

[onogurlar]

And don't forget, that the "macar" or "madjar" peoples

name is only ONE onogur tribe-name... The all blood-alliance were: 5 ogur-türks,

3 kabard tribes

and TWO uralian..

The magyar DNA stand nearest to the UYGHURS, and ARGÜN-kipcaks !!!

The hungarians(in western name...),from the "ONOGURIANS",

the MAGYARS are a turanid nation.

I'M very PROUD on this fact !!!

[Loz88]

Hi! These pictures are beautiful indeed, like the music! May i ask, what are their titles? Please, it would be important for me. Thank you for this!

[enmbf]

hi, sorry, i dont know anything about the pictures or the music. i reuploaded the clip, because the original post was deleted. ^^

[Loz88]

Okay, i'm so sorry. Thank you again!

[Norguy77]

@Loz88 the song is called Farewell No.1 By Shigeru Umebayashi

[Budhabe]

@Norguy77 Ty =D I've been looking for a good soundtrack

[talo91]

WOW!!! what a great video, great warriors. The selection of pictures is excellent.
