QuoteReplyTopic: Women in Central Asian History Posted: 22-Nov-2007 at 17:22
look up Mandukhai Khatun, became regent of the Mongosl and fought against the Oirats. Manshuk Mametova, a Kazak woman who fought in ww2 and gained the Hero of the Soviet Union medal. then we have Queen Tomyris of the Massagetae, who killed Cyrus the great in battle.
I've tried to find some references on notable women from this region. I haven't run across any notable characters, though the nickname I've selected was a female Mongol warrior. Anyone have more info?
