ชาวซิท
ชาวซิท (อังกฤษ: Scyths) หรือ ชาวซิเทีย (อังกฤษ: Scythians)[note 1] เป็นคนเร่ร่อนในอดีต ปกครองอยู่บริเวณที่ราบกว้างพอนทิก ราว 700 ถึง 300 ปีก่อนคริสต์ศักราช มีวัฒนธรรมที่รู้จักในชื่อ วัฒนธรรมซิท วัฒนธรรมนี้แผ่ไปถึงที่ราบกว้างยูเรเซีย ที่รวมถึงกลุ่มต่าง ๆ มากมาย เพราะเหตุนี้เอง แนวคิดที่เรียกชนเร่เร่อนยูเรเซียจึงหมายถึง ชาวซิทในบางครั้ง
เชื่อว่าชาวซิทมีต้นกำเนิดจากกลุ่มชนอิหร่าน[1] พวกเขาพูดภาษาซิท หนึ่งในแขนงของภาษากลุ่มอิหร่านตะวันออก[2]
ในช่วง 700 ปีก่อนคริสต์ศักราช ชาวซิทข้ามเทือกเขาคอเคซัสและปล้นพวกตะวันออกกลางอยู่บ่อยครั้ง ร่วมกับชาวซิมเมเรีย โดยมีบทบาทสำคัญทางการเมืองในภูมิภาคนั้น ราว 650–630 ปีกก่อนคริสต์ศักราช ชาวซิทได้เข้าปกครองชาวมีดซ์ในช่วงสั้น ๆ บริเวณตะวันตกของที่ราบอิหร่านตะวันตก[3][4] ได้แผ่ขยายอำนาจไปถึงชายแดนอียิปต์ ชาวซิทเข้ามาก้าวก่ายในเหตุการณ์ในตะวันออกกลาง โดยเป็นผู้นำในการทำลายจักรวรรดิอัสซีเรียที่เมืองนิเนเวห์ เมื่อ 662 ปีก่อนคริสต์ศักราช ชาวซิทได้ปะทะกับจักรวรรดิอะคีเมนิดอยู่บ่อยครั้งในเวลาต่อมา ชาวซิทพ่ายแพ้ให้กับราชอาณาจักรมาเกโดนีอาเมื่อ 400 ปีก่อนคริสต์ศักราช ค่อย ๆ พ่ายให้ชาวซาร์มาเทีย ชาวอิหร่านที่อาศัยอยู่ทางตะวันออก[5] ในปลายศตวรรษที่ 2 ก่อนคริสตกาล เมืองหลวงชองชาวซิทที่ชื่อ ซิเทียนนีอาโพลิส (Scythian Neapolis) ในไครเมีย ถูกครอบครองโดยมิทริเดทีสที่ 6 ดินแดนถูกรวมเข้ากับราชอาณาจักรบอสโพรัน ในช่วงเวลานี้ถูกกลืนเข้ากับวัฒนธรรมกรีกโบราณ และศตวรรษที่ 3 ชาวซาร์มาเทียและชาวซิทที่หลงเหลือถูกปกครองโดยชาวอลันและชาวกอท ต่อมาต้นยุคกลาง ชาวซิทและซาร์มาเทียได้ถูกกลืนเข้ากับพวกสลาฟยุคแรก[6][7]
ชื่อ

[แก้].jpg)
ชื่อ Scythians หรือ Scyths ในภาษาอังกฤษมาจากชื่อในภาษากรีกโบราณว่า Skuthēs (Σκυθης) และ Skuthoi (Σκυθοι) มาจากชื่อเรียกตนเองของชาวซิทว่า Skuδatā[8][9] เนื่องจากกการเปลี่ยนเสียงจาก /δ/ ไปเป็น /l/ ในภาษาไซเทีย ทำให้คำนี้พัฒนาไปเป็น *Skulatā[9] ชื่อนี้ได้รับการบันทึกในภาษากรีกเป็น Skōlotoi (Σκωλοτοι) ซึ่งเฮโรโดตุสระบุเป็นชื่อที่เผ่าซิทหลวงเรียกตนเอง[8]
ชาวอัสซีเรียเรียกชาวซิทว่า Ishkuzai (แอกแคด: 
, ทับศัพท์: Iškuzaya[10][11] หรือ Askuzai (แอกแคด: 
, ทับศัพท์: Asguzaya, 
, ทับศัพท์: mat Askuzaya, 
, ทับศัพท์: mat Ášguzaya)[10][12]
ชาวเปอร์เซียโบราณเรียกชาวซิทในภาษาเปอร์เซียเก่าว่า "ซากาที่อยู่ไกลกว่าทะเล" (𐎿𐎣𐎠 𐏐 𐎫𐎹𐎡𐎹 𐏐 𐎱𐎼𐎭𐎼𐎹, ทับศัพท์: Sakā tayaiy paradraya) และเรียนสั้น ๆ ว่า Sakā (𓋴𓎝𓎡𓈉, ทับศัพท์: sk; 𓐠𓎼𓈉, ทับศัพท์: sꜣg) ในภาษาอียิปต์โบราณ คำนี้มาจากชื่อกรีก-โรมันว่า Sacae (กรีกโบราณ: Σακαι, อักษรโรมัน: Sakai; ละติน: Sacae).[13][14]

- Cernenko 2012, p. 3: "The Scythians lived in the Early Iron Age, and inhabited the northern areas of the Black Sea (Pontic) steppes. Though the 'Scythian period' in the history of Eastern Europe lasted little more than 400 years, from the 7th to the 3rd centuries BC, the impression these horsemen made upon the history of their times was such that a thousand years after they had ceased to exist as a sovereign people, their heartland and the territories which they dominated far beyond it continued to be known as 'greater Scythia'."

- West 2002, pp. 437–440: "Ordinary Greek (and later Latin) usage could designate as Scythian any northern barbarian from the general area of the Eurasian steppe, the virtually treeless corridor of drought-resistant perennial grassland extending from the Danube to Manchuria. Herodotus seeks greater precision, and this essay is focussed on his Scythians, who belong to the North Pontic steppe [...] These true Scyths seems to be those whom he calls Royal Scyths, that is, the group who claimed hegemony [...] apparently warrior-pastoralists.
