Oh, who am I kidding? There's probably always been terrorists there.

Of course, you didn't have Islam so they were probably blowing up stuff for some camel god or something.
Assyria and Egypt were beating the hell of out each other then. The Scythians invented the saddle (without stirrups) in 700 BC. Can I move to Greece, add stirrups to the saddles and take over Babylon, Egypt and Assyria?

That would be amazing if adding "syrups" to a saddle helped you in your quest for domination. If you added pancakes, maybe.

I wonder how long the saddle was around before stirrups were invented. It seems like it should be a fast transition, but I don't know how inventing worked back then.

You might have no choice. All of the other cavalrymen would be making fun of you for your puny thighs.

Sweet. Time to take over the world.

On another note, I'm 6'4" and 220. I wonder how people would view me back then. I bet I'm a frigging giant compared to them.

I'm curious. I've read that size depended a lot on food security and food competition, and that some of the old humans were pretty close to our size, at least in height. Maybe not 6-4, but close to the modern average. These early civilizations may fall into the shorter side, though, since they were agriculture-based.

According to Herodotus the average male was 5'5"

Upon further research the stirrup wasn't invented until around 100 AD in China. I can't believe it took humankind almost a millennium to make that seemingly short logical leap.

That's kind of insane. That's a long time to be falling off your horse.
