The area that covers much of present day Ukraine, Russia and Central Asia was known in the middle ages as Scythia. The Scythian tribes dominated in this area which bordered on ancient Rome from around the 8th century BC to approximately the 2nd century CE, or Common Era. The most interesting area that was inhabited by the Scythians is the Altai Mountains which connect central Asia at a point where Russia,

China, Mongolia, and Kasakhstan conjoin. The mountains source the Ob, Yenisef, and Irtysh rivers and the temperature remains cold as the mountains are sit on glaciers and the water that feeds these rivers is from these glaciers.

The Altai Mountains provide a perfect habitat to sustain mummified remains that can host a great benefit of discovery. Much of the ground is in a state of permafrost, which indicates that the soil remains at a temperature below freezing. The freezing temperatures preserve bodies, even after thousands of years have passed so that research can be done to find hints of a history that was not written with ink. In 2006 reports surfaced of a mummy found in these mountains of a Scythian man. It was reported that, “The spectacular find of the frozen remains of a Scythian warrior in Mongolia by an international team of archeologists could shed new light on ancient life.”(Ancient Mummy). The man is reported to be in good preservation. “The corpse of the Scythian warrior could help provide clues about how people lived 2,500 years ago and about what illnesses they suffered.” (Ancient Mummy). The warrior has blond hair, is somewhere between thirty to forty years old and was discovered in an intact burial mound. His condition was remarkable. Hermann Parzinger, president of the German Archeological Institute, spoke about the condition of the find:

boots. "There could be more surprises when we remove the clothing from the partly mummified
