The Siraces were a Sarmatian grouping allied to the Roxolani and Iazyges.
There are two later groupings noted by the Polish historian, Tadeusz Sulimirski in his work 'The Sarmatians' (publ. 1970 by Thames & Hudson in the series 'Ancient People and Places'), in the period immediately before the expansion of the Slavs, who were known as the White Serbs and the White Croats. Their link to the later South Slav tribes is somewhat tenuous. Marija Gimbutas (Gimbutiene) asserts that there is evidence of Iranian admixture in the Slav peoples (who may have been known at this time as the 'Scythian farmers') which would have come about the beginning of the Common Era in the area to the North-West of the Black Sea. 86.137.148.195 (talk) 23:35, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
