The Sindi (Ancient Greek: Σίνδοι, romanized: Síndoi; Latin: Sindi) were an ancient Scythian people who primarily lived in western Ciscaucasia. A portion of the Sindi also lived in Central Europe. Their name is variously written, and Pomponius Mela calls them Sindones, while Lucian calls them Sindianoi.
