| Notes | Finding a connection between the Chinese transcription and the actual names of the tribes mentioned in Central Asian Turkish history depends only on some coincidences and long studies. It is sometimes very dangerous to draw great conclusions by following the analogy of words. This similarity is proven in terms of history and how it is related to other events is shown. Despite all this, some dark spots may remain. And for this reason, almost all of those working in this field have not been able to establish their theories with 100% accuracy. We accept the one with the least dark aspects among these theories. And we also criticize every new idea with this view. We consider each new clue as progress. Unfortunately, the scarcity of documents requires working with such a method in this field of our history. |
