@Hasokawa Tito: As I said I'm right know doing with Angadil a indepth research about the Scythians and Sarmantians, and there is one piece of art were I'm heavily inclined to recog. a "stirrup". As you said, straps could have been used easily before, and I confess that I think that it is possibly the case of the piece of art cited above...
