📝 英文原文：
Nomadic warriors called theScythiansroamed the Eurasian Steppe on horseback during the Iron Age. An elite class held the reins of Scythian power, their elevated status celebrated in death through rich burials. Among the most famous of these elite individuals is “Golden Man,” whose entombment contained iron weapons, bronze artifacts, a silver bowl and more than 4,000 gold ornaments.Now, genetic analysis shows for the first time that upper-class Scythians such as the Golden Man inherited their lofty status and shared power with their relatives, creating a level of social stratification that was absent in this region during the earlier Bronze Age.By comparing the DNA of dozens of individuals from multiple burial sites, scientists discovered family connections between Scythian elites, even among groups that lived far apart. These ties shaped emerging inequality at this time in the Scythians’ history, and the findings provide the first evidence that Scythian elites were related to each other, researchers reported Friday in the journalScience Advances.Genetic analysis also resolved longstanding questions about the Golden Man, whose Scythian burial mound, called a kurgan, dates back to around 400 BC to 300 BC and was excavated in 1969 at a site in Kazakhstan.Despite the gender-specific nickname, researchers remained uncertain about whether the youth was male or female. For the new study, scientists examined DNA markers from across the Golden Man’s genome, using statistical methods to fill in gaps where DNA data was damaged or missing. Their results suggested that the Golden Man was likely genetically male, and comparisons to other examples of Scythian DNA indicated that he belonged to a southern subset of Scythians called the Saka.A reconstruction of the "Golden Man," an elite Scythian youth who was excavated in 1969 at Kazakhstan's Issyk burial ground.Gulmira Mukhtarova“This paper does a fantastic job of integrating genetic, archaeological, and textual findings to support

在铁器时代，被称为斯基泰人的游牧战士骑着马在欧亚草原上漫游。一个精英阶层掌握着斯基泰人的权力，他们在死后通过丰富的葬礼来庆祝他们的崇高地位。这些精英中最著名的是“金人”，他的墓葬里有铁器、青铜器、一个银碗和4000多件金饰。现在，基因分析首次表明，像金人这样的上层斯基泰人继承了他们的基因。
