I'm looking for a book written by the Kazak military expert K.S. Ahmetjanov in which he writes about Scythians, Sakas.
Is it still available?
Can somebody help me in my search?
Greetings

You can find it only in Kazakhstan, and the book is written in the Kazakh language. I found & took xerox copy of it by pure chance from a professor in a university in Ankara. Otherwise, I couldn't have found the book.
By the way, that book is about all steppe peoples until the 19th century.

If you have the book, is it possible to scan some of the drawings on ancient steppe (Saka, Scythian,....) people? I would be very grateful.
I heard there are also black and white drawings from ancient archeological finds in the book. These would be very interesting for me.
Thanks

Hmmm I think they were posted before in the "Steppe Warriors Pic" thread  If not, of course I can do it, but nowadays I'm quite busy with school, hope it's not urgent. |

Bawirsaq only posted Scythians, Sakas and Sarmatians before he disappeared unfortunately. i also would like to see all plates of this book if possible.

Please try to remember that scanning and posting pictures without explicit written permission from the copyright holder is a crime in almost all countries. It can be, and has been, sufficient reason for ISPs to shut websites and fine the owners.

iirc he is already dead and his book is really hard to get. i also don't think that any Kazakh publisher would sue anyone...
