Map based on historical data and map archaeological cultures.
The proposed variants for the cities of really existing points.





1. the imaginary settlement of Kyzyl-Uick (there was real place -actually a sanctuary) (suggest to leave the title residential settlement of Dahae)
2. the ruins of the settlement with modern name Igdi-Kala (suggest keep in accordance with title "Igdi" or just settlement of Dahae)
3. the ruins of the settlement with the name Kalalygyr (suggest keep in accordance with the name "Lygyr")
4. the ruins of the huge city with the modern name of Toprak-Kala capital of Khwarazm (suggest keep in accordance with title "Toprak") NB: City of Kiat cannot be capital of Khorezm before III century AD
5. the ruins of the huge city with the modern name Chiric-rabad (suggest keep in accordance with title "Chiric") suggest making capital of the Saka or Massagetian
6. the ruins of the settlement with the name Kokayaz (suggest leaving the name "Saka or Masagetian settlement")
7. the ruins of the settlement with the name Zhana-korgan (suggest  the name just "Saka or Massagetian settlement")


other cities:
8. Raga
9. Gekatompil
10. Nisa
11. Navkata

Point 1 ( imaginary) and 2 could have walls but did not have walls of stone
3-5 points ( had huge wall but wall of mud brick)
6-7 points (had nothing but could adobe)

Then maybe we should retexture the stone wall to a mud brick wall for the steppe factions.

Good idea with wall textures of cities!
One more thing ... in fact...
All nomads camps do not have walls! Several carts and yurts (for beauty)

Maybe you can find some examples of the mud brick walls made by the steppe people?

Urban architecture can be like European, but the texture can be the clay. Settlements without walls.
About Saki and dahah ...It's hard to speculate, because life has been nomadic.

Here's an example similar to the Saka-Scythian architecture:
fabric, skins, wood, clay ...
