Taurica was inhabited by a variety of peoples. The inland regions were inhabited by [[Scythians]] and the mountainous south coast by the [[Taures]], an offshoot of the [[Cimmerians]]. Greek settlers inhabited a number of colonies along the coast of the peninsula, notably the city of [[Chersonesos]] near modern [[Sevastopol]].

 

 

The land of Tauris and its rumored customs of killing Greeks are also described by [[Herodotus]] in his [[The Histories of Herodotus|histories]], Book IV, 99-100 and 103.
