    Customer Review: Useful for Adults: The book is nicely illustrated with photos of Pazyryk grave goods and mummies. It had a few major omissions. It starts talking about the Scythians but doesn't show a map of where the Scythians lived. It also doesn't explain whether the Scythians were Asiatic like the Pazyryk probably were. An ancient felt painting of a Scythian that the book shows suggests that the Scythians were not Asiatic. So what is the connection between the Scythians and the Pazyryk?
