Skilurus

Skilurus was a king of the Scythians in the Crimea in the 2nd century BCE who ruled from Scythian Neapolis near modern Simferopol. He extended his power over the Greek city of Olbia, where coins were struck in his name, and pressed Chersonesus. A stone mausoleum at Neapolis holding many burials and rich grave goods is often attributed to him, and his sons, including Palakus, continued the war against Chersonesus.
