The most important description about the Scythians - who created the animal style art – is from Herodotosz (BC.484-425), the Greek historian.
Our bow, named Scythian, resembles the nice bow of the Scythians mainly by its recurve of the reflexarms. We make it without inflexible siyahs, with inner wedged grip; it is a simple executed bow. Its usual material is ash.
According to Herodotosz Scythia was situated between the Danube delta and River Don, on a steppe land. But the relics of the typical art blossoming out around 750 BC were found both in the Hungarian Great Plain and in Inner Asia too. The relations between the Scythians and Magyars are continuously researched by historians and art historians, and although many denials born, the opinion is agreed by many people. The Scythians might have belonged to the Iranian family of languages.
Their flourishing empire to the North from the Black Sea was destroyed by the attack of the Sarmathians, they reached The Hungarian Great Plain in the 1st century AD.
