The Arimaspi were a legendary people of northern Scythia who lived in the foothills of the Riphean Mountains, variously identified with the Ural Mountains or the Carpathians. All tales of their struggles with the gold-guarding griffins in the Hyperborean lands near the cave of Boreas, the North Wind (Geskleithron), had their origin in a lost work by Aristeas, reported in Herodotus.

The Arimaspi were a legendary one-eyed people recorded by several ancient scribes, most notably by Herodotus, the so-called "father of history". In his book ''The Histories'', he takes their description from the poem ''Arimaspea'' by Aristeas. The Arimaspi would steal the gold of the neighboring griffins, causing endless conflict.
