Far before the era of AD began, southern parts of contemporary Ukrainian territory were populated by Scythians and Sarmatians, nomadic pastoralist peoples of Indo-Iranic origin. Their belligerent leadership frightened the Persian and Mydian despots in the first half of the 1st millenium BC. Military expeditions of Persian nobility against Scythians were extremely unsuccessful - one of the reasons of the collapse of the Persian Empire during the Macedonian invasion.

Scythian herders enjoyed freedom of their prairies until first Greek colonizers disembarked on coasts of contemparary Crimea and Bessarabia and deployed huge armies of fortune-seekers. Scythian supremacy over Northern Black Sea Coast was undermined, shaken and destroyed. In the 6th century BC shining and glamorous city-states of Khersonessus, Ol'via, Pantikapeuss and Pheodossia took over this vast area and their colonial slave-and-bread trading empires characterized the region's development for almost three centuries.

Black Sea Greeks (that is the way historians came to call them) used quarells among Scythians and later Sarmathians in their interest - the amount of their trade and the extent of their power was growing. Black Sea city-states formally recognized Alexander of Macedonia as their sovereign, when he ceased power ovber the Greek world, but as though his empire was short-lived, the Black Sea Greeks didn't experience Macedonian influence whatsoever. They benefited from trade with post-Macedonian hellinistic Greece, the rest of Greek world in Asia Minor and Rome.

The latter, however was in process of expanding its influence around the Mediterranean and when in the first decades of the 1st Century BC Consul Sullah of Rome conqured Greece and occupied Sparta and Athenes, the war broke off between Romans and Black See Greeks. The powerful despot of Khersonessus, Mitridatus led the resistance against Latin invaders. The defeat of the Greek city-states, came however, from within - the uprising of slaves, led by Savmacus, put an end to the Greek integrity and the Black Sea Coast fell to the Roman Republic. After that comes a silent period in the territory's history - Romans didn't extend their holdings in the depths of the prairies of Skythia and in the East they stopped in Dacia (Romania) under Emperor Troyan. After Troyan Roman infrastructure virtually everywhere starts to weaken, melt and dissapear.

In 400s AD hordes of new invaders started to flock into the area from the East and the most important from them - The Huns. Founding strongholds all over the land, preparing for a jump into Europe, Huns are now being considered to contribute to the local poulation in terms of blood, horseback riding and other cultural assets they brought into the area.

While Huns were struggling for decaing and dying Rome, the Ostgotts, a germanic tribe led by Vinitar was returning from Italy to find a safe place to live - they aimed at Crimea. On their way they were attacked by people, called themselves Polyans, led by Boszh. Furious Vinitar, the grandson of Alarikh, the first barbarian to cease Rome, defeated Polyans and set up a massacre in their stronghold on the Danapris river - the Bussov Horod, which later became known as Kyiv.
