The History of Orbea
Orbea is a market town in the North Black Sea. It's set up to hit that market which is why it locates itself on the river bug and near the river Anipa. The Schithians, for all their reputation as nomads, do build market towns or at least use market towns from other local tribal groups. So Orbea has this ability to not only trade locally but trade deep into Schithian land. And if it can get somewhere like Bilsk where we do have evidence of Greek artifacts.
