The stylistic analysis demonstrates that in the Scythian “archaic” period (VII-VI centuries B.C.) the influence of Greek art on the art of the Scythian animal style manifested itself predominately in the adoption and conversion of some images by Scythian craftsmen or by Greek artists tending to satisfy tastes of the Scythian world. Later, in the V-IV centuries B.C. the number of borrowed images increased and the impact of the Greek art realized at more deep stylistic level. Initially this deep penetration of the Greek art motives and the Greek iconography in the Scythian animalistic art was a very fruitful process producing new themes and subjects but eventually on the edge of the IV-III centuries B.C. this process caused some degradation of the Scythian animal style under the vigorous pressure of the Greek art (cf. the animal style of the famous Alexandropol barrow).
