Greeks called Turks Scythians, and Arabs referred to Magyars as one of the Turkic tribes. Doesn't mean anything. Khazars and Magyars lived on the Steppes. It is prudent to assume that they were the ones that absorbed the remaining western Iranic Steppe nomads after Hunnic invasions. Slavs were brought along by Altaic Avars as subjects to Balkans. No Scythian or Sarmatian would get off his horse and live in forests.
