It is indeed a Scythian carriage, that is to say, a nomadic dwelling, a kind of caravan before the hour. It is not a tank of war. This clarification is especially necessary because many players with figurines see Scythian tanks as a result of a mistaken translation of Scythe trolley, overhang, confused with Skythian wagon, Scythian trolley Of the ambiguity of the English term "Scythian")
The first question I asked myself to make this cart was about the type of wheels: should they be full or spokes?
Some Scythian figurines found by archaeologists have solid wheels:
 |
| Specimen found in Crimea |
 |
| Other specimen |
Some Scythian artefacts found by archaeologists have spoked wheels:
 |
| Famous wagon of Pazyryk (Altaï) |
I opted for a form close to Scythian figurines but chose to equip them with spokes wheels. The Scythians had many civilizations whose vehicles had spoked wheels.
As a Scythian woman, I chose to use a figurine Wargame foundry of a Thracian woman, the suit sticking quite, both by the cap and the dress. And in addition I had it in my box rabiots ...
A rabiot of arcs and Scythian gorytes frames the door. A sword and a shield, also Scythian, also decorate the front of the trolley. These items are of the 1st body miniature brand.
The shield is decorated with a gold plate in relief representing the Scythe deer of Patzyryk.
Because the wagon was intended for residential use, openings were left behind at the rear of the vehicle.
