I've included Lalaith's note that the Wainriders seem to be a direct inspiration of a people named "Amaxoluoi" in Greek. However Lalaith doesn't mention the historical sources where Amaxoluoi are mentioned, and a Wikipedia or Google search doesn't return anything (at least with this spelling) other than Lalaith's article itself. I have found an online Latin text where "Amaxolii" are mentioned, and this only from a Czech or Polish site. I don't doubt that Lalaith has/had a wide range of studies and knowledge, but finding an external source would complement the article. And I find the lack of online sources weird.
