Hello, Sutoris
Sarmatians descended from the Saka/Massagetae, very clothes-conscious. Red and yellow were used extensively. Perhaps an example of style-consciousness would be the "Princess of Ukok." Or the "Golden Woman of Issyk Kul." Men were no different, wearing fancy clothes, tatoos, and myriands of applicaes and belt placques. mile:
