Love Amazons :o)
In the 16th century book Kronika Wszystkiego świata by Marcina Bielski (Chronicle of the Whole World) the author has a chapter called…
ABOUT AMAZON WOMEN, TATAR WIVES
They rode and fought with their men as equals.
No kidding!!
But – as another name for Tartarian is Scythian. And Scythian is another name for Scandanavian; these stories have come down to us via the Norse Sagas about Warrior Viking Women.
I’ve tracked down a copy of the above book. But I can’t read Polish. D’oh.

Scythians are not interchangeable with Scandinavians. 😠
