O knihe
The Medeswere an ancient Iranian people who lived in the northwestern portions of present-day Iran. This area is known as Media (also Medea; Greek ¿¿d¿a, Old Persian Mada; the English adjective is Median, antiquated also Medean). They entered this region with the first wave of Iranian tribes, in the late second millennium BC (the Bronze Age collapse). By the 6th century BC, after having together with the Babylonians defeated the Neo-Assyrian Empire, the Medes were able to establish their own empire, the largest of its day, lasting for about sixty years, from the sack of Nineveh in 612 BC until 549 BC when Cyrus the Great established the Achaemenid Empire by defeating his overlord and grandfather, Astyages, king of Media. The Medes are sometimes considered to be one of the ancestors of the Kurds. Although some scholars[who?] have dismissed the Kurds' claim of Median descent, others argue that linguistic and geographical evidence supports these claims.
