There isnt anymore. But the first people who claimed to be aryans used to lived in around northern Russia. Earliest R1a sample found in Moscow.
The oldest R1a to date
My popular map of the oldest instances of Y-haplogroup R1a in the ancient DNA record has a new entry: PES001 from the recent Saag et al. pr...

Some reconstruction of from the same place(not likely the same person) of aryan culture(based on a statue.....better to focus on the statue):

But these people arent like modern europeans. They were nomadic and spread around east. Today aryan isnt racial at this point, though all aryans have ancestry from these nomads(wether very little to half of their ancestry being from these nomads)

That doesnt make them less of aryans. if youre descendants of aryans, you simply can be aryan
"If the Aryan race really exists, the real Aryans are Ossetians."
Why?
But theyre descendants of aryans(schythians), so theyre aryans.

Just because a small part of their ancestry comes from Scythians doesn't really make them that
It does, if it came from their paternal ancestors, and they identify themselves with the aryan heritage.
Aryan, as you said yourself, aryan isnt a genetical group(though ALL actual aryans descends from these nomads), like semetic.

How does it matter if it's paternal or maternal ancestry and 5-10% in sheer volume.. This low amount of ancestry isn't enough to call yourself or consider yourself a part of that ethnicity
So aryans, like the persians, were wrong to call themselves aryans???
You put too much importance into admixture/%'s. It doesnt work like that. Being aryan just means being descendants of them. Its a cultural title, not an ethnicity, though all aryans share some aryan ancestry(cant be aryan with no aryan ancestry). It isnt like claiming to be ethnic german, and only being 1/4 german. Again, aryan isnt an ethnicity, but all aryans today shares some ancestry from nomad aryans.

It's wiser to pay attention to the actual amount of ancestry rather than the culture inherited. Religion or culture for the most part shouldn't be an attribute that determines the ethnicity.
As for your German example, someone who is 1/4 German and claims to be ethnically German is more logical than a German claiming that he/she is Aryan in an ethnical sense and derives the ancestry from those Aryan nomads in single digits and uses the culture excuse for that. That 1/4 German person is also descended from Germans with much higher total German ancestry, especially if he/she was born in Germany.
