Besides, check out the Y-Search site and look at the matches of Pazyryk sample. Probably half of them are Anatolian Turks. :laugh: Even 2 Turkish members on this forum are matching with the Pazyryk sample. The results are becoming too thick even for your ruined Slavic ass hole, I must say.

Archaeologists started calling everything between Altai and the Black Sea "Scythians".

Those from the Altai region could be already Turkic-speaking if they had so much of Mongoloid admixture.
But we don't know for sure. It is possible that they preserved Iranic language despite mixing with Proto-Turks.

Eastern Scythians were Mongoloid mixed no shit, but we know shit about their language, so automatically assuming they are Turkic or Iranic without proof is retarded.

They spoke a Indo-European language. From genetic data of Indo-Europeans, we know that they are more similar to Europeans than most modern people. Indo-Europeans would often conquer/ settle in a area, mix with the natives and create a civilization. This happened in India, Iran, Armenia and all throughout Europe among other places. It means that Schytians were to old (likely paternal) origin related to modern Europeans as Iranians among others are for example. It doesn't mean they were European racially. Likely a lot of the western Schytians were more like Europeans than the eastern ones. How much like us? IDK. I don't really care personally. However it's safe to say that the ones they got a large part of their culture from and their language were indeed indo-Europeans.

Maybe that's the case. I think it's more correct to say "indo-European" rather than "north European". Welsh-like n. Euro is very different from Lithuanian like for example. On some genetic studies like the ones Litivn showed, some do have a lot of Yamnaya-like ancestry with quite little mongoloid.

The original Scythians spoke an Indo-European language, that is true. The ones in Altai region (Pazyryk people), not certain. Should they be called "Scythian" to begin with? That's an another question. But based on their genetic data, they seem to heavily mixed with Siberian/East Asian (most likely Turkic) populations and it is possible that they might have spoken Turkic. Or at least, we may assume they were bilinguals.

I quote just to show Greek sources were always contradicting each other.
Now if we look from objective viewpoint, Scythians were diverse already by 6th century BC. There were different ethnos.
Scythians became synonym for steppe herding nomads; that means not an ethnic reference but a reference to people having a certain form of lifestyle.
Now but who were first Scyths: Turkic, Indo-European or Uralic? That can be discussed.
Pazyryk samples (2) with N y-dna and strongly Siberian autosomal strengthens the Turkic theory.
Beside let's not forget that Scythian religion and burial rites were Turkic-like. Like burrying horses with dead humans, you don't see that in Iranic paganism.

Scythians were referred to as "Saka" in Iranian sources, the Turks were not, for a good reason.
Scythians had certainly some Iranic elements.
But were they all Iranic? Were they mainly Iranic?
Doubtful.
If it was such, there wouldn't be Iran-Scythian wars like that famous with Massagatea (Cyrhus).
Scythians and Iranians were enemies. To the level 2 related nations couldn't be. Scythian religion was different from the Indo-Iranian Zoroastrianism or Mithraism. That's also a strong point for difference.
Iranians (Medes and Acheamenid later) were given civilization by Semitic Assyrians.
The source of the Iranian Aryan civilization of Medes and Acheamenid is Semitic agriculturalism.
Not steppe pastoralism like were Scythians.

You cannot use this as an argument, even Turkic tribes fought each other lol, does that mean they weren't Turkic? Ethnicity and linguistics doesn't mean you won't fight each other. The Scythians were still employed as mercenaries by Persians and they were even allied with the Medes to take down the Assyrians. Scythian paganism is strongly connected to Iranic paganism with some differences, they are not the same but similar, obviously since they are nomads they tend to have some cultural differences. It still doesn't make them Turkic like you try to argue for here.
Also neither the Medes or Achaemenids were "Semitic" agriculture empires, are you high or what? xD
The first recorded Iranic proto-level state was Media/Meds.
They started as vassals of Assyrians, later became independent. And later, they were replaced by Acheamenids.
This is why the Iranian civilzation borrowed from Semites.
It's not self-developed civilization.
It was built on Semitic agriculturalism, the legacy of neolithic farmers.
Scythian religion showed similarity with Tengrism more than with Mithraism or Zoroastrianism.
Although Scythian religious beliefs do not specifically express the values of a nomadic people, such values are manifested distinctly in the forms of Scythian cultic life. For example, according to Herodotus—and this has been confirmed archaeologically—the Scythians had neither temples nor monumental images of their gods, a fact connected, apparently, with the mobility of their way of life.
Greeks and Persians had temples and images/icons of their gods. Fire, sun worship etc.
Elements not existing among Scythians.
That makes them closer to Turkic (and also to Uralics).

It's not self-developed civilization.
It was built on Semitic agriculturalism, the legacy of neolithic farmers.
Scythian religion showed similarity with Tengrism more than with Mithraism or Zoroastrianism.
Greeks and Persians had temples and images/icons of their gods. Fire, sun worship etc.
Elements not existing among Scythians.
That makes them closer to Turkic (and also to Uralics).
Your opinion doesn't matter for the experts, they are not closer to Turkic or Uralic people but the modern Eastern Iranian peoples of Central Asia.

Scythians had certainly some Iranic elements.
But were they all Iranic? Were they mainly Iranic?
Yes, clearly Iranic, without any other ethnic elements. The different substrate is missing from their language residues. Iranic names, iranic words.
For example the Finno-Ugric and Turkic language elements are in the sources of the Hungarian language. Because the Magyars were Finno-Ugric speaker, heavily Turkic influenced peoples at this time.
So this defiency of the non-Iranian elements in the sources about the European Scythians language is not a random thing.
If it was such, there wouldn't be Iran-Scythian wars like that famous with Massagatea (Cyrhus).
Scythians and Iranians were enemies.
And?
To the level 2 related nations couldn't be. Scythian religion was different from the Indo-Iranian Zoroastrianism or Mithraism. That's also a strong point for difference.
So, the Chuvash or the Yakut peoples are not Turks!
Iranians (Medes and Acheamenid later) were given civilization by Semitic Assyrians.
The source of the Iranian Aryan civilization of Medes and Acheamenid is Semitic agriculturalism.
Not steppe pastoralism like were Scythians.
Their common ancestors were those steppic peoples, whom lived in the Andronovo cultural complex. Anywas, the Turks in the modern Turkey are not Turks, because they are not nomads anymore as some Kyrgyz until today!

He is contradicting himself, so by his logic he isn't Turkish xD
There is no sample of the 'Scythian' language btw. There are just hypothesis from 1920s and attempts to reconstruct. That's based on Greek records, Hellenized writings. It's names with -os endings etc like Greek names.
That's not enough of proof.
The reconstruction was attempted by Abaev who took for granted that Scythian language was related with Avestan and old Persian.
And Abaev was... Ossetian himself.
There was Stalinist involvement in that theory. It was the years when Soviet Union was denying that old Rus' was Viking :)
So guys
No. It's not for granted Steppic people as you say, were Iranians. There is no proof for that.
Scythians became Iranic during Stalin era in Russia, the same time Rus' were officially declared non-Varangian LOL

Khotan Empire was East Iranian. Stretching from Transoxiana up until modern Tarim basin which now lies in west China.
They were Buddhist agriculturalists.
They had villages, they were settled, they were farming. They weren't nomads.
They are proto-Tajiks and proto-Sogdians.
That has nothing to do with the nomads of the steppes.
Their script was Aramaic which was a Semitic alphabet. Turkic runes was self-developed (Thomsen said Turks might some cheating on Chinese but runic and letter style making unique).

Basically they were very mongoloid long before the Mongol invasion. But the percentage of Aryan DNA is still very significant. Over 1/4 Northern European.
Actually you should say "Aryan DNA is already very significant", since the evidence of the deer-stones undoubtedly strengthens the position of those who argue for the eastern, Central Asian origin of the animal style and of the entire Scythian culture. Btw oldest Scythian graves were found in Tuva, and they were 35-55% Mongoloid. Their aDNA is entirely Turkic. This fits actually to Herodots claim that Scythians originated beyond the Jaxartes.

I agree there is some problem with both charts.
For exampled the Tajiks East Asian admixture is very low in one end and very high in the other end. Low east Asian admixture could be from Pamiri Tajiks, this study properly includes them
The Uyghurs show 35-40% East Asian and 60-65% European which is wrong. This admixture is only based on Uyghurs from Southern Xinjiang and that's misleading. Northern Uyghurs have only 30-47% European admixture which they didn't include ( btw European in this study means west Eurasians from west asian, european, southwest asian, caucasus ect )
Uyghur genetics
KK (2009). "Genetic Landscape of Eurasia and "Admixture" in Uyghurs". American Journal of Human Genetics. 8
" various scientific studies differ on the size of each component.[129] One study, using samples from Hetian (Hotan) only, found that Uyghurs have 60% European ancestry and 40% East Asian ancestry.[130] A further study showed slightly greater European component (52% European) in the Uyghur population in southern Xinjiang, but slightly greater East Asian component (47% European) in the northern Uyghur population.[131] Another study used a larger sample of individuals from a wider area, and found only about 30% European component to the admixture.[132] "
TURKMEN DNA GENETIC VARIATION IS A LOT MORE LARGER THAN THAT GRAPH HAD SHOWN. Mongoloid DNA can be over 50% in some Turkmen aswell. You can see some Turkmen tribe look very Mongoloid like the Tekke Turkmen and other Turkmen tribes while the Turkmen living in a historically Iranian city in Turkmenistan have a much lower Mongoloid although some look like they have high aswell.

SCYTHIAN DNA
" Ancient genome-wide analysis on samples from the southern Ural region, East Kazakhstan and Tuva, shows that Iron Age Scythians were a mix of Yamnaya people from the Russian Steppe and East Asian populations, similar to the Han and the Nganasan (Samoyedic people from northern Siberia). The East Asian admixture is pervasive across diverse present-day people from Siberia and Central Asia. "
Han aka Han Chinese
Nganasan a Siberian people
Obviously Mongoloid unless you're telling me the Chinese and Ngannasans don't have Mongoloid DNA.
You even said Central Asians Mongoloid admixture is not not because of the Mongol invasion. You're only partially correct, Central Asians already had Mongoloid during the Scythian times to the Turkic invasion however. Central Asia before Mongol invasion in 13th century were still primary physically Caucasoid and predominately Caucasoid. There were Mongoloid-Europoid people they were a minority until the Mongol-Turkic invasion. Central Asia used to be inhabited by Iranian Caucasoid like Scythians, Sogdians, Pamirs, Bactrians, Andronovo people until the massive genocide and rape of Iranian women by Mongolians army. Now everyone of these groups are extinct except for the Pamiris and Tajik people while the rest of Central Asians can look like straight up East Asian to half Chinese, Japanese, Korean.

But Turkmen were already effected by original gokturks who were mixed Mongoloid. DNA does not shows Turkmen they were effected by Mongolians at all but by Siberian DNA. Even Turk have some Siberian DNA today.

There is no scientific evidence about Scythians and Sarmatians being IE, all the above posts are personal interpretations of rumours depending on the outworn works of soviet and british from 1940s
So, from the early writers: Anna Comnena says Turks are Scythians in her Alexiad (1148) likewise Michael Attaleiates in The History (1079) clearly express that Schythians are Pechenegs, he was present in Manzikert
71661
Also, as I have written proeviously, Greek writer Priscus wrote Atilla's Huns spoke scythian and they are from the same origin with Scyhtians (448). I read the book myself
No need to write about the research of the many Turkic academics today like İlhami Durmus, O.Karatay, Laipanov etc:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y-DNA_haplogroups_in_populations_of_Central_and_Nort h_Asia
Scythians R1a:
Ancient Y-DNA data was finally provided by Keyser et al in 2009. They studied the haplotypes and haplogroups of 26 ancient human specimens from the Krasnoyarsk area in Siberia dated from between the middle of the 2nd millennium BC and the 4th century AD (Scythian and Sarmatian timeframe). Nearly all subjects belong to haplogroup R-M17. The authors suggest that their data shows that between Bronze and Iron Ages the constellation of populations known variously as Scythians, Andronovians, etc. were blue- (or green-) eyed, fair-skinned and light-haired people who might have played a role in the early development of the Tarim Basin civilisation. Moreover, this study found that they were genetically more closely related to modern populations of eastern Europe than those of central and southern Asia.[134] The ubiquity and utter dominance of R1a Y-DNA lineage contrasts markedly with the diversity seen in the mtDNA profiles.
-----
Tocharians R1a mixing with Mongoloids over 2,000 years ago:
Genetic analyses of the mummies showed that the Xiaohe people were an admixture from populations originating from both the West and the East. The maternal lineages of the Xiaohe people originated from both East Asia and West Eurasia, whereas the paternal lineages all originated from West Eurasia.[11]
Mitochondrial DNA analysis showed that maternal lineages carried by the people at Xiaohe included mtDNA haplogroups H, K, U5, U7, U2e, T and R*, which are now most common in West Eurasia. Also found were haplogroups common in modern populations from East Asia: B5, D and G2a. Haplogroups now common in Central Asian or Siberian populations included: C4 and C5. Haplogroups later regarded as typically South Asian includedM5 and M*.[12]
The paternal lines of male remains surveyed nearly all – 11 out of 12, or around 92% – belonged to Y-DNA haplogroup R1a1, which are now most common in West Eurasia; the other belonged to the exceptionally rare paragroup K* (M9).[13]
Kyrgyz and other central Asians are partially Mongoloid because of Scythian and Tocharian men mating with Mongoloid women. By the time of the Mongol invasions of central Asia, most people were already partially Mongoloid. Even Genghis Khan himself was a byproduct of this mixture. He was not fully East Eurasian.

Temujin (AD 1167-1227), better known by his title Genghis Khan (Universal Ruler), was a man of strongly Nordish racial ancestry. According to the Persian historian Ab ul Ghasi, the tribal clan to which Temujin belonged, were known as the Bourchikoun (Grey-Eyed Men). [Günther (1934) 185; Lamb (1928) 22.] The ancestral mother and founder of this clan was known as Alan goa (beautiful Alan). According to the Mongol and Chinese legends on the subject, she was said to have been visited in her tent by a divine being, who possessed golden hair, a fair complexion and grey eyes. Shortly after this visitation, she gave birth to the first member of the Bourchikoun clan. [Günther (1934) 184.] Temujin himself was noted in Chinese descriptions of him, for his tall stature and heavy beard. [Günther (1934) 185.] We should also note the following depiction of Temujin's appearance, as given by Harold Lamb, in his biography of the great Khan: "He must have been tall, with high shoulders, his skin a whitish tan. His eyes, set far apart under a sloping forehead, did not slant. And his eyes were green, or blue-grey in the iris, with black pupils. Long reddish-brown hair fell in braids to his back." [Lamb (1928) 23.] Ab ul Ghasi also observed that the family of Yesugai, the father of Temujin, were known for the fact that their children often had fair complexions, and blue or grey eyes. [Günther (1934) 185.] Temujin's wife, Bourtai, bore a name which means "Grey-Eyed". [Lamb (1928) 23.] As both Günther (1934) and Lamb (1928) note, Temujin's relatives and descendants also possessed fair features: Temujin's son and successor Ogadei (1229-41), had gray eyes and red hair; Temujin's grandson Mangu (1251-9), had reddish eyebrows and a red-brown beard; Subatei, who conquered China, had a long, reddish beard. Indeed, it was said that people were surprised Kubilai Khan had dark hair and eyes, because most of Genghis Khan's descendants had reddish hair and blue eyes. [Günther (1934) 185.

Don't confuse yourself so badly. You are correct and wrong. Early Mongoloid admixture in Central Asian started out mostly with Mongoloid females and Europoid BUT AFTER THAT it was Mongoloid males and Mongoloid-Europoid males Europoid females. Kyrgyz and other central Asians are partially Mongoloid because of Scythian and Tocharian men mating with Mongoloid women and later Mongol-Turkic men mating with Europoid female. Have you forgotten Central Asians also have 40-90% European mtDNA ??? Kazakhs have 40-50% European women mtDNA with predominately East Asian male ancestry 70-90% (in many studies), Kyrgyz have mostly European Y-DNA 60-70% but how do you explain the fact they have 27-42.6% European women mtDNA ? Where do you find a pure Europoid Kyrgyz ???? THERE IS NONE AND THE ANSWER IS HERE.
Fact no.1
There is more Mongolian Y-DNA than mtDNA in Central Asia but more Siberian mtDNA than Y-DNA. And if you include the R1a Mongoloid males ( who have Europoid paternal ancestry but look as Mongoloid as any Chinese ) than it's actually more higher than we all think.
Fact no.2
R1a is in Central Asia is partially descended from partially/or heck properly even predominately Mongoloid males R1a.
Did you really think that the Mongoloid invaders of Central Asia were only strictly haplogroup C, O, Q, N, D ???? because Genghis Khan invasion of Central Asia included both Mongol and Turkic tribes. And if we are talking Turkic tribes it's likely they were already predominant Mongoloid males with R1a
The proof is right here
Pazyryk culture
" Craniological studies of samples from the Pazyryk burials revealed the presence of both Mongoloid and Caucasoid components in this population.[6] quoting G. F. Debets on the physical characteristics of the population in the Pazyryk kurgans, records a mixed population. The men would seem to be part Mongoloid and the women Europoid.[7] "
Anayino culture
Sculptural reconstruction of men Lugovskyi burial
Ananyino culture. Gypsum. MMGerasimov work.
" Reconstruction of the mounds number 5, 6 show burial Stone Barn in racial make women Ural mixed type men - striking features of Central Asian Mongoloid."

Kyrgyz may have 40-70% R1a ( depending on the Kyrgyz tribes, some Kyrgyz actually have very low R1a despite several studies show them with high )
West Eurasian mtDNA lineages ranging from 27% on the low end to 42.6% on the high end [37] with Haplogroup mtDNA H being the most predominant marker at 21.3% among the Kyrgyz.[37]
Do you understand what this means ?
It means Europoid mated with Mongoloid females and later Mongoloid males and predominant Mongoloid males mated with Europoid females in different periods of time and history.

Here is Kyrgyz west Eurasian mtDNA
Kyrgyz populations have frequencies of West Eurasian mtDNA lineages ranging from 27% on the low end to 42.6% on the high end.
Do you understand what this means ? It means in 1 in 4 (27%) or almost 1 in 2 ( 42.6% ) of the 5.5 million Kyrgyz population are also descended from Caucasian Europoid females. Or better said roughly a quarter to half of them are descended from Caucasoid females.
Look at these Kyrgyz, not one of them look even the slight Europoid.
http://static.ca-news.org/upload/ennews/8/568928.1448341546.m.jpg
The fact that every modern genetic study shows Kyrgyz being super heavily Mongoloid MEANS all ancient Europoid females from Kyrgyzstan also had to mixed with Mongoloid males with C, O, Q, N and Predominately Mongoloid males with R1a
You won't find one single modern Kyrgyz who's a pure Europoid genetically with a pure R1a and Caucasian mtDNA H

Why do people keep thinking Kyrgyz = Europoid males and Mongoloid females. From a genetic point you can only say most of them are Europoid male descendants and Mongoloid female but there is still large number of them descendant from Mongoloid males, Europoid females. We are talking about 27 - 42.6% West Eurasian mtDNA not 1-4% ( And never mind South Asian mtDNA which is 3-9% although most of them properly existed in pre-central Asians and looked a typical ancient Central Asian). Now thanks to anthropology of ancient people we shouldn't think about only haplogroup C, O, Q, N people invaded there was also Mongoloid faces males but with R1a inherited through their Scythian fathers.
Kyrgyz population 5.5 million/or 5,500,000
27% Caucasian mtDNA out of 5,500,000 = 1,485,000 Kyrgyz have Caucasian maternal ancestry
42.6% of Caucasian mtDNA out of 5,500,000 = 2,257,800 Kyrgyz have Caucasian maternal ancestry
Assuming those Caucasoid mtDNA wasn't raped or mated with than where the heck is one genetic data with Kyrgyz showing pure Europoid DNA or where is the crowed picture of them that don't look super Mongoloid ( I'm talking about crowed picture not cherrypicked indidividuals )
It means not just Mongoloid mtDNA got f*cked the same goes for Caucasoid mtDNA historically.

As for Uyghurs
They are descended from Tocharian, now assuming in ancient times half of them were pure Europoid and half were Mongoloid-Europoid (don't know what degree though ) One can assume have the Uyghur invasion of Tarim Basin, that almost all the intermixture were Mongoloid males and Europoid females and Mongoloid-Europoid females with both Caucasian mtDNA and Mongoloid mtDNA because ancient Tocharian were already this admixture but they heavily Europoid unlike today ancient Tocharians properly like ancient Scythians with 80-85% Europoid, 15-20% Mongoloid not like modern Uyghurs ( descendant of Tocharian ) who are 50% Mongoloid and only 50% Europoid.
" A study on mitochondrial DNA (therefore the matrilineal genetic contribution) found the frequency of western Eurasian-specific haplogroup in Uyghurs to be 42.6%, and East Asian haplogroup to be 57.4%[133] A further study shows that the western-Eurasian patrilineal Y-DNA haplogroup in Uyghurs is around 65% to 70%, and east-Asian Y-DNA haplogroup around 30% to 35%.[134] ( from 0% to 30-35% but mtDNA west Eurasian were properly the same )
According to the paper by Li et al.:
... the western East Asians are more closely related to Uyghurs than the eastern East Asians. ... STRUCTURE cannot distinguish recent admixture from a cline of other origin, and these analyses cannot prove admixture in the Uyghurs; however, historical records indicate that the present Uyghurs were formed by admixture between Tocharians from the west and Orkhon Uyghurs (Wugusi-Huihu, according to present Chinese pronunciation) from the east in the 8th century AD. The Uyghur Empire was originally located in Mongolia and conquered the Tocharian tribes in Xinjiang. Tocharians such as Kroran have been shown by archaeological findings to appear phenotypically similar to northern and central Europeans, whereas the Orkhon Uyghur people were clearly Mongolians. The two groups of people subsequently mixed in Xinjiang to become one population, the present Uyghurs. We do not know the genetic constitution of the Tocharians, but if they were similar to western Siberians, such as the Khanty, admixture would already be biased toward similarity with East Asian populations.

Tocharians were probably among the more clearly Caucasoid groups. They had DNA more resembling mainland Europeans and spoke a language similar to the Celtic branch. "Scythians" as a whole were not a singular people and as such each had varying degrees of being Caucasoid or Mongoloid. That is the nature of the steppes. Ethnicity was ALWAYS very fluid among the nomadic steppe tribes, and race didn't hold the same meaning.
There also wasn't any grand "Scythian" empire like some people believe, just loose coalitions of tribes that moved in fluid borders with few areas ever having an actual, stable population.

The Ossetic thing is one of the biggest failures. Genetically, they're basically just Georgians/Kartveli or whatever you want to call them. The language also isn't as pure Iranic as it looks on first inspection.
In reality, regardless of ethnic composition, one could easily say that the Turkic kingdoms were far beyond anything "Scythians" accomplished other than the Kushan and Indo-Saka empires. Yet for some reason, people want to talk about some big loss that central Asia went through and act like their should be some kind of uprising.

Although it's proven they had Mongoloid admixture they were roughly on average 80% Europoid and 20% Mongoloid. They wold have still look Europoid with little to no Mongoloid features. We can see North Africans are 22-24% Sub-Saharan African but when you look at them the vast majority look like a straight hair Caucasoid males, some look Caucasoid with curly hair but very few look like a Ethiopian /Somalian type ( don't confuse the Black North African who are descendants of African slave trade or the Black/African north African 7-9th generation descendants, they make up a substantial of North Africa's population today but but are not proper north Africans) so the same would apply to Scythians and Tocharians.

I've heard this before, but I'm not sure what people mean by it. Maybe the name means something else, but it does still refer to the same people that it always referred to. The only thing questionable is whether they were the same as the Yuezhi, who pushed out the Saka and became known as the Kushan, due to the former speaking a branch more akin to Anatolian and Celtic, and the latter speaking Bactrian.

Let's just put this to rest though. Regardless of what the old Scythians were "more like", there's no real claim to them by anyone. Tomyris wasn't some Uzbek woman. Massagetae were bearded and hairy. Most Turkic national origin tales (AFAIK) speak of ancestral movement from further north in Siberia. There is ethnic and religious confusion through and through. The runes they used most clearly resemble the Turkic ones. Some religious aspects are more Zoroastrian especially in the case of fire rituals performed by Sarmatian tribes and references to an "Urmaysde" among the Saka, other things are more "nomadic" in origin, although not quite close to Turkic either. I'm not sure if any people from the area still divines events by throwing reeds or worships deities like Api or Tabiti.
Here's something I have to ask while hopefully not being offensive by doing so: Was there ever any real "Tengri" religion. The name is attested on some inscriptions, but was it ever really some supreme deity/ancestor that all Turkic people acknowledged to the same degree and that had specific rituals attached to it? It seems like the Tengriism mentioned today is the result of a lot of romanticism like many other such nostalgic revivals.

Scythian was the generic term for East Iranics. They were called 'Saka' in Indo-Iranic languages.
Just because some non-Iranics were called Scythians centuries later doesn't mean that Scythians didn't exist. That was just an example of an inconsistency/mistake.
Ossetian people were descended from Sarmates, who are an Iranic people that were called Scythians in the past.

I'm glad someone else knows this. It's a huge misnomer that causes a lot of confusion. Tocharian languages should be renamed 'Tarimian languages'.
Tokharistan was used to refer to Bactria when it was Iranic speaking in the first millennium AD and the name far predates any Turkic expansion into Middle Asia, so I disagree with the latter part of your comment.

Stalin replaced God for the baboon masses in the USSR once upon a time. Entire cities, factories, car brands were named after Father Stalin.
Soviet historiography gifted Scythians for Thou Father Stalin. Just to appear kind.
The same Stalinist school to this day still pretends Viking Rus' clan wasn't Viking (Germanic) but Balto-Slav!
It's funny how the civilized world kept on that Stalinist history revisionism and falsifications. They still insist all the pastoralist nomads between South Siberia and Crimea were all 'Iranic' ... In fact that's just crazy.
Viking Rus wasn't Slavic, but Germanic for sure, but for sure they were the large minority among Slavs.
Also, monk Nestor in the "Primary Chronicles" is saying to us that Slavic and Finnic tribes first expelled Vikings when they tried to invade modern day West Russia, and then after they (Rus' tribe) lost, they were invited by Slavic and Finnic tribes to rule among them, becouse they were in many conflicts before it.

Tokharistan was used to refer to Bactria when it was Iranic speaking in the first millennium AD and the name far predates any Turkic expansion into Middle Asia, so I disagree with the latter part of your comment.
The difference is that Tokharistan was just a region, not an ethnic name, its basically a Turkic word: Tokh "mountain" + ar "people", its the people of Togarmah, son of Gomer, one of the 24 Oghuz clans. Armenians, Georgians and Turks descended from this ancient guy.

And how can Turks have migrated into Middle Asia in the late 1st millennium AD, when there were already Turks in Europe in the early 1st millenium AD? :confused::confused::confused:

Here's something I have to ask while hopefully not being offensive by doing so: Was there ever any real "Tengri" religion. The name is attested on some inscriptions, but was it ever really some supreme deity/ancestor that all Turkic people acknowledged to the same degree and that had specific rituals attached to it? It seems like the Tengriism mentioned today is the result of a lot of romanticism like many other such nostalgic revivals.
Currently no evidence exists that Tengri (Täŋri) was some kind of a deity, let alone ‘religion’. It is not even clear if such notorious figures as Genghis khan believed in Tengri. ‘By the power of Eternal Heaven’ (Tengri) was used by the old Turks and later Mongols as an ultimatum, a statement indicating inevitability of fate, or coercing to acknowledge the inevitable. Tengri was a call to the heavens/sky. In medieval old Uighur documents, literary/religious works Tengri simply meant sky/heavens. Considering all of the above we can firmly attest that Christianity is in fact a religion of Tengri (our Father, who art in heaven). (NOT) Even cro-magnons had some kind of belief systems with an afterlife and likely called onto heavens. But to call their beliefs and practices as ‘religion’ would be farfetched.

Sky God (Gök Tengri) was referred to as one God.
If it was simply nature or universe, that wouldn't be something countable.
Ibn Fadlan reports during his journey to Bulgar, while travelling lands of Oğuz Turks somewhere around north-east of Caspian.

In 920's the Oghuz weren't Muslims.
'One' god is even more far fetched than considering Tengri a deity (among others) which in itself is far fetched. There is no 'reliable' evidence from the Turkic runes or Uighur documents or even with later Mongol conquests that 'Tengri' was some kind of a 'deity'. They did not have to be Muslims, they could have adopted notions and understanding from neighboring 'monotheistic' populations. 10th century is pretty late and these tribes were out of the 'core land'.

It was not like God in Semitic religions but it was definitely a deity unlike you pretend. You have many hints for that even in the old inscriptions.
Just as when Bilge Khagan refers to the role of Sky – Tengri in the inscriptions: ‘All human sons are born to die in time, as determined by Tengri’.
Or from Kul-Tegin monumental complex, when it says: ‘As Tengri (Sky) gave them strength, the army of Khagan my father was like a wolf, and his enemies like sheep’.
Tengri is a deity here.
Tengri is here a countable, one, metaphysical power who interferes in worldly affairs.

Tariat inscriptions (Mongolia):
teηride bolmyš el etmiš bilge qaγan el bilge qatun qaγan ataγ qatun ataγ atanyp ötüken kedin učynta tez bašynta örgin…
I heavenly/sky born El Etmish Bilge Qaghan along with heavenly/sky born El Bilge Khatun accepted titles Kaghan and Khatun…
kök teηri jarlyqaduq üčün asra jaγyz jer igit(t)ük üčün elimim törümin etinti…
As the blue sky above condescended and the brown earth below nurtured me, my people and my laws were created…
teηride bolmyš el etmiš bilge qanym ičreki boduny alytmyš…
My heavenly/sky born El Etmish Bilge Qaghan went to subjugate all the tribes….
Later Uighur Buddhist sutra from Qocho:
Yır Täŋri törümishtä bärü bay ymä bar, yog chiğay ymä bar
Since the creation of earth and sky, the rich and the poor exist
Notice how Tengri (sky) and yır/yär (earth) are often used in context, simultaneously both in the steppe runes and urban texts, so according to your argumentation, the brown earth below is also a deity?
In regards to Kultigin translation “‘All human sons are born to die in time, as determined by Tengri’.” and “As Tengri (Sky) gave them strength, the army of Khagan my father was like a wolf, and his enemies like sheep”. They again prove my points I made earlier. Tengri in this context is used as ‘fate determined by sky’, as an ‘object’ from which power, strength is obtained and as an inevitability of events that are to come. Also we need to look at the translation from an academic publication as words might be placed in certain order to indicate something which is absent in the original.
Of course Tengri/sky/heaven is one, when you go outside do you see some kind of a crack or splitting of the sky? You are trying to find meaning where there is none. Mongols after conversion to Buddhism had 1000 Tengries flying in the sky, does it mean there were 1000 Tengries originally?
Descriptions of the Arab traveler about ‘bir tengri’ of the Oghuz Turks are to be evaluated cautiously. Arab/Persian sources about Turkic peoples are of little real academic value. For example Muslim sources dubbed Qocho Uighurs, Karakhanids, and many other differing Turkic tribes from Mongolia as far as Caspian Sea having Toquz Oghuz origin. Similar to terms Saracens and Franks during the Crusades. The absurdity went even further when medieval Muslim sources started calling everyone remotely resembling a man on horseback as ‘Türk’ including Mongols and many other unrelated peoples.

It doesn't matter, it doesn't need Tengri has the same attributes of Testament's God or Kuran's Allah to be a deity
The evolution through time of the Tengri's attributes, what they became and so don't really matter here.
The thing is Tengri is absolutely a deity.
It's an entity, separate from humans who creates, makes choice, prefers some humans over others, he is countable.
Ibn Fadlan's report on Oghuz Turks (who weren't Muslim yet) about 'Bir Tengre' is important.
Western academics and historiography consider his writings as highly reliable since Fadlan gave objective information about Rus (Vikings with cremation ceremony description), Oghuz, Bulgars and anyone he met.
He talks bad about Oghuz Turks, he explains their habits which he finds weird and explains that bir tengri story.
So, that Fadlan isn't reliable source isn't correct.

I conducted a little research and apparently you are taking Fadlan’s remark of ‘bir tengrich’ out of context.
“Nevertheless, when they have agreed on something and have decided to do it, the basest and most wretched of them can come and break the agreement. I have heard them say: ‘There is no god but God; Muhammad is the Messenger of God’ to make a good impression on the Muslims who stay with them, but they do not believe in this firmly. If one of them suffers an injustice, or something bad happens to him, he lifts his head to heaven and says ‘bir tengri’, which means ‘by the one God’ in the language of the Turks, for bir in Turkish means one and tengri is God.” Ibn Fadlan, Ibn Fadlan and the Land of Darkness: Arab Travellers in the Far North (Penguin Classics, 2012), p. 49
“Even more disturbing for Ibn Fadlan is that instead of turning to God, the poor Oghuz chose to lead a life divorced from religion and reason. In his own harsh words, the Oghuz are like al-hamir al-dhalla, that is, strayed asses. Given that they lack a monotheistic din (religion) and are uncaring about ʿaql (reason), it is no wonder that the Oghuz count their chieftains as gods. After Ibn Fadlan fails to convince one of the powerful Oghuz chieftains to convert to Islam, he denies them any positive attributes in religious affairs. Perhaps the result of this failure pushed him to accuse all Oghuz of religious ignorance. Doubting possible future conversions to Islam, Ibn Fadlan warns his readers that the Oghuz care more about filling their own purses than enlightening their souls and minds. Every time an Oghuz man, he tells us, wants to gain money or gifts from Muslim merchants, he pretends to be Muslim by saying bir tengrich, meaning there is only one God.” Nizar F. Hermes, The [European] Other in Medieval Arabic Literature and Culture: Ninth-Twelfth Century AD (Palgrave Macmillan, 2012), p. 84
Tengri cannot be countable because in the eyes of old Turks sky was infinite stretching endlessly in all directions, the way sky visually appears to a clueless steppe onlooker. This is all comparable to early Islamic cosmology where Quran describes the moon following the sun, and the stars falling (meteors, comets in reality) because they are located in ‘nearest’ heaven (closer than both the moon and the sun). As I previously stated, Tengri was used to refer to all kinds of things, the sky/heavens themselves, a supernatural force, in Irk Bitig (9th century) there is reference to ‘yol täƞri’ (Tengri of roads). Various interpretations and meanings related to Tengri started appearing only after the influx of Iranian and Sogdian refugees (Nestorians, Manicheans) into the Eastern Steppes following Arab Muslim onslaught of Transoxiana. There are no common rituals, beliefs, practices or burial rites connected to Tengri. It is not even clear if the old Turks worshipped Tengri/Sky/Heavens.

It's countable in the sense it is one. Bilge Khagan refers to one Tengri in the inscriptions on his stele.
It's anyway a deity. The yol Tengri of road? Doesn't matter, the concept refers to the use of the word as deity again, actually that the word becomes synonym for deity.
Tengrism was not an organized religion in the sense of other monotheistic faiths, however Tengrism has one aspect which distinguishes it from Deism or overall Pantheism thats belief of kut (heavenly mandate to rule Kaghan has). Kaghan was khagan, he was recognized by people as khagan because people admitted Tengri gave him kut.
