So, in the grand hierarchy of the white race back then, back when the Roman empire wasn't even a dream...
Greeks were thought of as the lowest of the whites. (I don't think anyone considered the Celts to be part of the same race, but if they did, the Celts would be even lower, not able to even face the Greeks in battle.)
Above them, there were the Persians and other middle eastern empires derived from the egyptian and sumerian empires.
At the top were the horseriders who roamed the plains in central asia. They went by various names. I can't remember the name right now but it will come to me.
I think it was King Darius who rode north trying to challenge them, for he knew that if he could defeat them in battle he would be known as the greatest warrior king that ever lived. He would move his army north and they would retreat. Finally, he sent a letter to them demanding that they come out to battle. They wrote back that they do not fight losing battles, so if they did decide to fight, it would be to his destruction. And they saw no reason to fight, because there were vast plains and more than enough room for him and his army. Besides, if they were to desecrate the graves of their ancestors, that might be reason enough to fight, but they were not sure about it.
King Darius went back to his empire, never facing them in battle.
I believe Alexander the Great was able to convince those horseriders to fight for him as he rode through Persia.
The yamnaya were prehistoric. They are the ones who figured out you can ride horses. All civilized cultures trace their lineage back to them, and every horse used for agriculture or riding come from their horses. They were at least thousands if not tens of thousands of years before the people I am talking about.
