Dispels the myths surrounding the history of steppe societies and proposes a fresh understanding of the nature and formation of the state. Drawing on his extensive anthropological fieldwork in the region, the author persuasively challenges the legitimacy of the tribal model, which continues to distort scholarship on the history of Inner Asia.
