GK: Along the north shore of the Danube, then across the mountains into the Hungarian plain. The same route later taken by the Roxolans and the remaining Yazigi. The same "contact" route the Romans guaranteed to the Roxolans after their conquest of Dacia.

Harmatta's views on the Sarmatians are not always right, but he's quite on target as to the time and route of the Yazigian migration. Some 70 years posterior to the Ariovistus saga. Door closed.****
