Btw, I think it would be better to post the pictures about the European Huns in the Western Steppes category.

Hi BAWIR$AQ, welcome to SHF! The sketches are from the Xiongnu article of the Atlas Magazine in Turkey. |

Hi BAWIR$AQ, welcome to SHF! The sketches are from the Xiongnu article of the Atlas Magazine in Turkey. Rahmet! "Hun Princess" seems to be based on so-called Paziriq culture of Altay which is believed to be Saka.   |

On the other hand, there are two more theories on the ethnicity of the Pazïrïq Culture. Some think they were Xiongnu or Pro-Xiongnu (I find this theory weak because the Proto-Xiongnu tribes lived in Ordos at that time) while some others think it was a distinct culture on it's own, not belonging to the Saka nor the Xiongnu. But anyway; this is not the main topic of this thread  |

i just know saka lords gave horses with fake antlers (deer horns) to their Kurgan graves...the deer (or horned horse, like unicorn?) was also prominent in Saka art.
