As you know Tabriz was the capital of Atropatene, named for Atropates, one of Alexander's generals who sent to Alexander a troop of Amazons.

About this Skeleton, Dr. Hazbari, head of the excavation team, says "at first it was thought it is a man warrior but DNA tests showed that it is certainly the skeleton of a woman warrior". He also says "She was a exceptional woman who could have a high social rank, her big and powerful body and her very large sword also show that she was probably a General!"

Actually a russian team found a burial mound in the ukraine that dated back to the scynthians. It turned out that this tomb contained an "amazon" warrior-priest. They compared the dna from this tomb to that of a blond uzbek girl in mongolia and they were astounded to find that the genetic material matched! How they deduced to say that there is a connection between the turkic nomad and this "amazon" I didn't understand.
