The compiler of the first Byzantine Encyclopedia Anna Komnina does indeed call the Rus people of the 11th century as Scythians
Constantine Profirogenet calls Russians = Tauric-Scythians
The Byzantine writers - Patriarch Photios, Georgius Amartol and others who wrote about Russian attacks on Constantinople never called them Slavs, when defining the people who besieged Constantinople they called them: "Ross, the people of Scythian origin"
Geographer Ravenskij when listing the Euroepan countries calls Scythia for homeland of the Slavs.
Confirming this, in Lev Diakon's history, Russians are called Scythians 63 TIMES
Mazurinsk Chronicles (1678 - 1682) say "the newcomers, Scythians, who cometh to be called Slavs"
Nikon's Chronicles say openly: "Slovenic language as spoken on Danube has come from Scythians"
WHAT MORE PROOF IS NEEDED THAT SLAVS ARE SCYTHIANS?
PEOPLE CAN'T ACCEPT THE FACT!!!!!!
