[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [qb] You have no earlier sources no evidence close to the classical Persian empire period Median and Achaemenid Empire (650–330 BC) [/qb][/QUOTE]I cited Xenophon first who described Persian prisoners as white/pale compared to Greeks as well as Herodotus, pay attention! [/QUOTE][QUOTE] And again, believing that to feel contempt for one's enemies infuses a certain courage for the fight, Agesilaus gave orders to his heralds that the barbarians who were captured by the Greek raiding parties should be exposed for sale naked. Thus the soldiers, seeing that these men were white-skinned because they never were without their clothing, and soft and unused to toil because they always rode in carriages, came to the conclusion that the war would be in no way different from having to fight with women -- Xenophon, Hellenica [/QUOTE]Maybe, but it's military propaganda Scholars say these captured "barbarians" were Persians. I'm not sure if that's a sure thing [IMG]https://qph.ec.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-1954d617f7ec998f538adae30a48ac1c-c[/IMG] ^^ But what is the evidence that theses are Elamites? If they are not Persians because of what Xenophon said why would they be Elamites? [/QB][/QUOTE]
