The Greek-Scythian Society CIC works where archaeology, living history and public education meet. We reconstruct the arms, dress and metalwork of the steppe peoples and bring them to festivals, schools and heritage sites across Britain.
Since 2022 our members have appeared regularly at Park in the Past in North Wales (Fagl Lane, Hope, LL12 9HB), where visitors handle reconstructed weapons, examine ornament at close range, and hear how the evidence for these societies is actually assembled — from grave goods, Greek accounts and modern excavation.
The Scythians and Sarmatians wrote nothing of themselves. What survives is material: gold plaques from burial mounds, iron blades, horse harness, the trace of a people described mostly by those who feared them.
Our second strand of work is documentary. We are assembling a digital record of this material culture so that objects held in different museums and private collections can, for the first time, be studied side by side.
