RE: Archaic Greece Timeline (c.900 - 470's BC)
Who was or were the Cimmerians and why why were they attacking Asia? I'll assume they were conquering Asia. Did they kill a bunch of people? Did they impregnate Asian women like that one man (Genghis Khan) who conquered a bunch of Asia?
From what I know, they were Indo-Europeans originating from north and north-east of the Black Sea, near Scythia.
They invaded parts of Asia Minor, some of which belonged to the Neo-Assyrian empire.
I don't know much about the Assyria Empire, meaning I know even less about the Neo-Assyria Empire. Actually, I've never heard of the revised version. That is another thing I should research, particularly in how some empires may revise, may resurrect, may reincarnate so to speak by another name to continue again. I love looking at patterns.
Honestly that's as much as I know XD not many people's specialty if we're honest. Would be interesting to look into tho ofc
agreed
