A young Ossetian woman wearing traditional ancient Iranian costume The Ossetians are an Iranian-speaking people inhabiting the Caucasus.They are considered to be the descendants of the Alans, an ancient Iranian nomadic pastoral people of the North Caucasus who followed an Indo-Iranian polytheism as their religion.The main population of the Ossetians is concentrated in North Ossetia, forming part of the Russian Federation and South Ossetia respectively. The Ossetian language belongs to the Northeastern Iranian branch of the Indo-European language family.From the 7th century BC to the 1st century AD, Ossetia came under a strong Scythian-Sarmatian influence which was followed by that of the fierce and indomitable Alans.Subsequently, many of the Alans were compelled to migrate westwards with Germanic tribes and had to assimilate into different European nations.However, a small number which remained, went on to survive the Mongol invasions of the 13th century and eventually became the ancestors of the present-day Ossetians.

“Evidence of the oldest recognizable monarchy in human history, preceding the rise of the earliest Egyptian kings by several generations, has been discovered in artifacts from ancient Nubia in Africa… The discovery is expected to stimulate a new appraisal of the origins of civilization in Africa, raising the question of to what extent later Egyptian culture may have derived its advanced political structure from the Nubians… The various symbols of Nubian royalty that have been found are the same as those associated, in later times, with Egyptian kings… The new findings suggest that the ancient Nubians may have reached this stage of political development as long ago as 3300 B.C., several generations before the earliest documented Egyptian king…” #nubia #nubian #africancivilisations #africanhistory #civilisationstartedinafrica

The vibrantly painted columns of an ancient Egyptian temple. The intricate hieroglyphs and depictions of gods and pharaohs highlight the mastery of ancient Egyptian art. The use of bright colors emphasizes their spiritual beliefs, where life and the afterlife were celebrated with vivid imagery and symbolism. These towering pillars are part of temple complexes built to honor deities and pharaohs. They served not only as places of worship but also as political symbols of the pharaoh's divine authority. The imagery includes offerings to gods, celestial stories, and protective spells, a testament to the deeply spiritual lives of the ancient Egyptians. Standing beneath these monumental columns, visitors feel the grandeur and devotion that defined ancient Egyptian civilization. The sheer scale and detail of these temples remain a testament to human creativity and engineering genius. #AncientEgypt
