female archers during the Naadam sent on July 21, 2023 (19:53) by Marmor. 9 comments, 242 views.

Il Naadam, festa nazionale mongola, consta di prove sportive principalmente di quattro specialità: tiro con l'arco, sia maschile che come in questa foto femminile, tiro dell'osso della caviglia, lotta libera ed equitazione. Si nota un grande agonismo e concentrazione degli atleti, almeno pari a quello dell'interesse dimostrato dagli spettatori, quasi esclusivamente locali (turismo molto scarso). Mongolia, luglio 2023

A well-made document-shot accompanied by an interesting note; I carefully observed if for those archer women there was any modification of the profile of the mammary glands as it happened for the ancient Amazons: no, I would say that they appear with absolutely normal curves :-)
From Wikipedia: Pseudo-Hippocrates reports that Sarmatian women, traditionally identified or connected with the Amazons, have their right mammary gland burned by the application of a red-hot copper disc. The practice is carried out in early childhood to prevent the development of the breasts and ensure greater strength to the arm that will draw the bow. A reference to a similar costume of the Amazons is attested by Diodorus Siculus. The Greek historian mentions mutilation without giving details, but specifying that its purpose is to make women warriors stronger.
