According to The Landmark Herodotus, the Father of History describes the numerous positive achievments the barbarian Persians took away from the various other peoples of the world. I have taken a moment to break this down into an easy to read format below.

Medes : Clothing

Egyptians : Armor

Hellenes : Pederasty

(The Landmark Herodotus, p 73)
