The motif has predecessors in Bronze Age art, found in Mycenaean Greece, and in the Ancient Near East, especially in Mesopotamian and Hittite iconography. It re-appeared prominently during the High Middle Ages, being adopted by the Palaiologos dynasty of the Byzantine Empire. 11th or 12th century representations have also been found originating from Islamic Spain, France and the Serbian principality of Raška. From the 13th century onward, it became even more widespread, and was used by the Seljuk Sultanate of Rum and the Mamluk Sultanate within the Islamic world,[1] and within the Christian world by the Holy Roman Empire, Serbia, Albania and Russia.

they were essentially wild Asians without civilization, unlike the rest of Europe
Every single statement here is a pure and stupid lie.
1. Arabic sources described three Russian states in the begging of IX century - Kyabia, Slavia and Arthania. And he describe them as a tribe of Vikings. First western mention of Russians - spy scandal, when they were taken for Swedens (actually means that it was about Northern Russia, not Southern one). The name Russia itself has Northern (Finnish) origin - Ruossii (archaic form of Rus') is just Slavic pronouncing of Finnish word Ruotsi - meaning Swedens, Vikings.
2. In other Finnish dialects "Moskwa" may mean "Bear river" or even "Swamp". And no, all Russian vassals of the Horde were paying taxes, and most of them payed them independently. The Great Duchy of Moscow was just the most successful of the former Horde regions. May be, China was also good.
3. Plain lie. Even The Great Prince Ivan the Terrible named himself "The Tzar (Caesar) of all Russians".
4. Kiev was not "liberated" from Horde, because Horde totally genocided its population. "Ruthenians" doesn't mean "Ukrainians". "Ruthenians" is just "Russians" in Latin. And no, the Great Duchy of Lithuania, Russia and Jemaja was multicultural, but mostly Russian-speaking and Orthodox state.
5. If Ukrainias are "true Russians", why they don't call themselves Russians (actually they do, just Ukrainian Nazies are against it). And no, in Southern Russia (genocided first by Mongols, and later by Lithuanians, Poles and Germans) Bylins (legends about Medieval Russia) didn't survive. They survived in Northern Russia.
6. Its much better to pay relatively small taxes (and often don't pay them at all) but save your language and culture, than to be conquered and genocided by foreign invaders). And, talking about "four Russias" of late Medieval time: North Russia, Novgorod, export-oriented, oligarch-ruled resource-appendix of Europe; East Russia - Moscow, centralised, military state, South Russia - Zaporozhye - Cossacks, military anarchy, something like Orthodox Christian ISIS; West Russia - Vilno (now - Vilnus) Westernised ruling class, discriminated Russian peasants, alliances with other Western powers, it was Moscow who proved itself as the most successful. Actually, late Medieval is the time of centralised and more or less nationally thinking stayes. More or less same processes have been happening in England, France, Germany and other European countries.

Moscow State University: "In other words, Muscovy did not experience the influence of the Mongols, Muscovy was the great “Mongol” Empire itself."
WITH OTHER WORDS K. Marx was ONLY 50% CORRECT on this subject
The origin of Moscovy lies in the bloody degradation of Mongolian slavery...
"semi-Asiatic" menace to "Europe" and "civilization ...
the Muscovites. They are not Slavs; they do not belong to the Indo-Germanic race at all, they are des intrus [intruders], who must be chased back across the Dnieper,

As if Vikings, Khazars, Slavic tribes and Russian pre-Mongolian/pre-Lithuanian states were not intruders, murderers and slave-traders.Moscow State University: "In other words, Muscovy did not experience the influence of the Mongols, Muscovy was the great “Mongol” Empire itself."

Of course, all of them were more civilised than Western Europeans, but it is not difficult to be more civilised than Germans or Frenchies - they are barely human beings, after all.
