The Cimmerians weren't Aryan, we don't even know who they are. They might as well be Indo-European or Ugrics or something.

>>1189907
The ulmandu or whatever they called the steppe tribes

Lost hyperborean tribe.

And even then, before that there were the Scythians and the aryans mentioned in the Rigveda, all of which are of hyperborean extraction.

He's actually correct, in the sense of actual sand-colored hairy Aryans, as opposed to Hitler's "Aryans". You read wrong.
>>
>>1190026
not all aryans were sand-colored, senpai
>>
>>1190026
>always referred to as blonde or ruddy-haired, always as tall, always with blonde, green or "yellow" (hazel) eyes, ruddy skin etc.
>mummies found have light hair and are northern european in appearance
Just because they probably tanned very nicely, like lots of aryans do, it doesn't mean they were the same as their mud people slaves.

>The origin of the Cimmerians is unclear. They are mostly supposed to have been related to either Iranian or Thracian speaking groups which migrated under pressure of the Scythian expansion of the 9th to 8th century BC.

Calling them Aryans is plain wrong you nuts.
>>
>>1190054
I meant that not all iranian races are sand-colored. Arabs were.
>>
>>1189907
Don't matter. The ones that used completely mounted armies were the ones that wrekt shit. Most armies with horses had a very small percentage mounted. I think it was the assyrians that had completely mounted armies first.

This is also why the mongols took most of the known world during their time.
