In Greco-Roman geography, the Riphean Mountains (also Riphaean; /rɪˈfeɪən/, or /rɪˈfiən/; Ancient Greek: Ῥιπαῖα ὄρη; Latin: Rhipaei or Riphaei montes) were a supposed mountain range, located somewhere in the far north of Eurasia. These areas were mostly identical to several Russian regions like southwestern Russia (an important region of the ancient Scythian culture) and the Volga region and its rivers like the Don and Volga. Different travellers described the Riphean Mountains on their travels in ancient Russia. The name of the mountains is probably derived from Ancient Greek: ῥιπή ("wind gust").
