Certainly! One example of an ethnological analysis made by a historical thinker of the classical world is the work of the Greek historian Herodotus. In his book "Histories," Herodotus wrote extensively about the customs and traditions of the various peoples he encountered during his travels.

For example, in Book 4 of "Histories," Herodotus describes the customs of the Scythians, a nomadic people who lived in what is now modern-day Ukraine and Russia. He notes that the Scythians practiced a form of ancestor worship and would make offerings to their dead ancestors by pouring wine and other liquids onto the ground. He also describes the Scythians' nomadic lifestyle and their use of horses for transportation and warfare.

Throughout "Histories," Herodotus compares and contrasts the customs and beliefs of various peoples, highlighting both their similarities and differences. His ethnological analysis provides valuable insights into the cultural diversity of the classical world and the ways in which different peoples understood and interacted with one another.
