    The movies are not very accurate in their portrayal of Conan and Hyboria.



    Read the books.

    the Cimmerians are neighbors of the Picts (geographically), Picts are probably based on the ancient people with this name of the actual British Isles ---->http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picts

    yes, i know this


    Cinmerios ----> Highlanders with bronce/tan skin and dark hair, often with gray eyes, tall people. (Very old inhabitants of the West, survivors of the sunken Atlantis.)
    Atlantis stems from Greek mythology

    True, and the most of books are not written by Robert E Howard. There are many good stories of the original author, enough to fill ten books, are also the best by far, is a shame that no one film is based on these stories.

    this is the best drawing of Conan, in my opinion, based on the original description of Robert E Howard.




    hair straight and dense, black as the plumage of a crow.

    As an anecdote, Howard talks of the Hyborians as people who come in waves from the east and occupied the lands of the West, bordering the lands of Cimmerians and Picts, later, at the end of the "Hyborian Age" the Picts attack in hordes and destroy the Hyborian cities.
