Morning in the Riphean mountains
Riphean mountains - the designation of the heights that give rise to the main rivers of Scythia; in Greek mythology, these are the mountains on which the dwelling of the north wind Boreas was located. The presumed correspondence is the modern Ural Mountains.
“Beyond these mountains, on the other side of Aquilon, a happy people (if you can believe it), called the Hyperboreans, reaches very old age and is glorified by wonderful legends. It is believed that there are the loops of the world and the extreme limits of the circulation of the luminaries. The sun shines there for half a year, and this is only one day when the sun does not hide from the spring equinox to the autumn equinox, the luminaries there rise only once a year at the summer solstice, and set only at the winter. This country is all in the sun, with a favorable climate and is devoid of any harmful wind. Homes for these inhabitants are groves, forests; the cult of the Gods is managed by individuals and the whole society; strife and all sorts of diseases are unknown there. Death comes there only from satiety with life. There can be no doubt about the existence of this people.”
"Natural History" by Pliny the Elder
Arkaim is a mysterious ancient city, a fortified wooden settlement of the Middle Bronze Age at the turn of III-II millennium BC. e., considered the same age as the Egyptian pyramids and ancient Babylon, much older than ancient Rome and Troy. Excavations have shown that the inhabitants of the city were representatives of one of the oldest Indo-European civilizations - that branch of it, which is called the Aryan culture.
