Although the archaic Turkish archery has not been very well documented specifically the information about the steppe people gives an idea about it. Other than old Greek Roman and Byzantian scripts archaeological excavations made by the former USSR scientists enlightened many points of the nomadic life and culture. Despite the fact that there are different kinds of nomadism in the current context nomads are pastoralists who follow their animal herds as they search for food and water. Nomadic steppe peoples were tribal or clan-based entities and their leaders achieved their status and political power by their personal abilities. The unification of tribes of different ethnic origins under the commandement of such leaders was not rare. Cultural genetic and military interactions made it possible to talk about a “common mounted archery culture” which can easily be representative for early pre-Islamic Turkish horseback archery. This cultural complex widely known as “Scythian Triad” is typical with the content of their tombs: weapons made of bronze and iron equipment of horsemanship and the so-called “animal-style” art. Warriors were burried with their weapons and horses so the tombs offer great information. The earliest written sources of other cultures about the steppe folks were dated to the first millenium BC and these steppe people were referred as Scythians as named by Herodotus or Saka as called by Iranians. After the Scythians historically we next encounter the Sarmatians who came as aggressors and finally occupied all Scythian land. Both groups of steppe people were speaking Iranian languages (at least their leaders were) and closely related to the Medes and Persians who themselves originated on the steppe. The Scythian culture became widespread among Altai people from which the Turks come from. This is quite important and may be the earliest example of the interactions between the Turkic and Persian cultures.
