Каменные бабы у Национального музея истории Украины. Что они означают? У Национального музея истории Украины стоят древние степные статуи (или каменные бабы), накрытые небольшими железными козырьками. С давних времен они украшали степи Востока и Юга нашей страны. Статуи часто сбрасывали с верхушек курганов, где когда-то их ставили. Само слово “баба” не обозначает женский пол. Это слово производное от тюркского слова “вава”, что значит – “предок”. Изначально бабы были воинами, но постепенно приобрели и женские черты.
У входа в Музей истории Украины стоят шесть статуй - степные каменные бабы. Три статуи — очень древние, из скифской эпохи (VI век до н.э.) и три статуи — половецкие (XII-XIII век). Они всегда стоят на страже, оглядывая посетителей музея.
Во времена князя Владимира на площади перед Андреевской церковью находился район Бабин Торжок. Здесь не было каменных баб, но но стояли античные статуи, которые князь привозил из захваченых им городов.
На Старокиївській горі, у стін історичного музею, розташуються кам’яні баби – химерні статуї приблизно з метр заввишки.
Традиція установки кам’яних баб була розповсюджена серед багатьох народів, що населяли територію сучасної України у різні часи. Особливо часто вони зустрічалися у скіфів та половців.
Статуї висотою від 1 до 4 (!) метрів, як правило, зображували воїнів, рідше – жінок. Спочатку вони були примітивно обробленими та створювались як обереги. На багатьох скульптурах чітко вирізняються сліди різців, що свідчить про їхнє професійне виготовлення. В руках у статуй нерідко зображені сосуди, а також виразно окреслені особливості одягу, головних уборів, прикрас, предметів побуту, зброї.
Слово «баба» у даному випадку має тюркське коріння та походить від слова «балбал», тобто пращур.
Творці баб були язичниками-анімістами, які поклонялися тваринам, у них був розвинений поховальний культ. Кочівники вірили у загробне життя, вважали його продовженням життя земного в іншому світі. Про це свідчать численні поховання воїнів, поряд з якими археологи часто знаходили скелети коней, зброю, сосуди для їжі.
Кам’яна баба – це ідол померлого предка. У давнину баби встановлювались переважно на курганах, тому вважають, що вони були атрибутом релігійного культу пращурів та пов’язані з поминальними обрядами. Сакральний характер статуй підтверджується святилищами, у яких вони встановлювались. За традиціями курганних культур, святилища знаходились або на самих курганах, або ж поблизу могильників. Кочівники вірили, що саме у таких місцях здійснюється перехід у інші світи та утверджується перемога життя над смертю.

Scythians
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Scythians (; from Greek Σκύθης, Σκύθοι), also known as Scyth, Saka, Sakae, Sai, Iskuzai, or Askuzai, were Eurasian nomads, probably mostly using Eastern Iranian languages, who were mentioned by the literate peoples to their south as inhabiting large areas of the western and central Eurasian Steppe from about the 9th century BC up until the 4th century AD. The classical Scythians known to ancient Greek historians, agreed to be mainly Iranian in origin, were located in the northern Black Sea and fore-Caucasus region. Other Scythian groups documented by Assyrian, Achaemenid and Chinese sources show that they also existed in Central Asia, where they were referred to as the Iskuzai/Askuzai, Saka (Old Persian: Sakā; New Persian/Pashto: ساکا; Sanskrit: शक Śaka; Greek: Σάκαι; Latin: Sacae), and Sai (Chinese: 塞; Old Chinese: *sˤək), respectively.The relationships between the peoples living in these widely separated regions remains unclear, and the term is used in both a broad and narrow sense. The term Scythian is used by modern scholars in an archaeological context for finds perceived to display attributes of the wider Scytho-Siberian culture, usually without implying an ethnic or linguistic connotation. The term Scythic may also be used in a similar way, to describe a special phase that followed the widespread diffusion of mounted nomadism, characterized by the presence of special weapons, horse gear, and animal art in the form of metal plaques. Their westernmost territories during the Iron Age were known to classical Greek sources as Scythia, and in the more narrow sense Scythian is restricted to these areas, where the Scythian languages were spoken. Different definitions of Scythian have been used, leading to a good deal of confusion.The Scythians were among the earliest peoples to master mounted warfare. They kept herds of horses, cattle and sheep, lived in tent-covered wagons and fought with bows and arrows on horseback. They developed a rich culture characterised by opulent tombs, fine metalwork and a brilliant art style.
In the 8th century BC, they possibly raided Zhou China. Soon after, they expanded westwards and dislodged the Cimmerians from power on the Pontic Steppe. At their peak, Scythians came to dominate the entire steppe zone, stretching from the Carpathian Mountains in the west to central China (Ordos culture) and the south Siberia (Tagar culture) in the east, creating what has been called the first Central Asian nomadic empire, although there was little that could be called an organised state.Based in what is modern-day Ukraine, Southern European Russia and Crimea, the western Scythians were ruled by a wealthy class known as the Royal Scyths. The Scythians established and controlled the Silk Road, a vast trade network connecting Greece, Persia, India and China, perhaps contributing to the contemporary flourishing of those civilisations. Settled metalworkers made portable decorative objects for the Scythians. These objects survive mainly in metal, forming a distinctive Scythian art. In the 7th century BC, the Scythians crossed the Caucasus and frequently raided the Middle East along with the Cimmerians, playing an important role in the political developments of the region. Around 650–630 BC, Scythians briefly dominated the Medes of the western Iranian Plateau, stretching their power to the borders of Egypt. After losing control over Media, the Scythians continued intervening in Middle Eastern affairs, playing a leading role in the destruction of the Assyrian Empire in the Sack of Nineveh in 612 BC. The Scythians subsequently engaged in frequent conflicts with the Achaemenid Empire. The western Scythians suffered a major defeat against Macedonia in the 4th century BC and were subsequently gradually conquered by the Sarmatians, a related Iranian people from Central Asia. The Eastern Scythians of the Asian St ...
