E. D. Phillips presents a sweeping account of peoples including the Scythians, Sarmatians, Huns, and Mongols, tracing their origins, social structures, and the fearsome military power that made them a defining force in the ancient world. Drawing on archaeological discoveries, classical sources, and comparative ethnography, the work illuminates the rich artistic traditions and sophisticated material culture of these so-called barbarian peoples. Written with scholarly authority yet accessible to the general reader, it argues persuasively that the nomads of the steppes were not peripheral figures but central actors in the shaping of Eurasian civilisation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956395094235,"sku":"2026200008751-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/28a781df-de67-4f35-ac74-5141d9e54335.png?v=1783500599","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200008751-secondhand-the-royal-hordes-nomad-peoples-of-the-steppes","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
