"...the Greeks fought with the Amazons, whom the Scythians call 'Oior-pata' or 'man-slayers', as it may be rendered, Oior being Scythic for 'man', and pata for 'to slay'." (Herodotus)
" [Caesar replied] Why not? Semiramis was supreme in Syria, and the Amazons once ruled over a large part of Asia." (Suetonius)
"[Nero] arranging for the concubines who would accompany him to have male haircuts and be issued with Amazonian shields and axes." (Suetonius)
"...manliness is to be assumed in order to produce confidence and forbearance, so as "to him that strikes on the one cheek, to give to him the other; and to him that takes away the cloak, to yield to him the coat also," strongly, restraining anger. For we do not train our women like Amazons to manliness in war; since we wish the men even to be peaceable. I hear that the Sarmatian women practise war no less than the men; and the women of the Sacae besides, who shoot backwards, feigning flight as well as the men." (Clement of Alexandria)
