Turkic Peoples
The Aqatğır (Chinese: 曷嶻; Ancient Greek: Ἀκατζίρ, Ἀκατίρ) were a Xunı tribe that were active on the Eurasian Steppe during the 5th century C.E.
The Avar (Common Script: Avar; IPA: /ɑvɑr/; Chinese: 烏讙, 讙; Old Turkic: 𐰯𐰺; Greek: Ἀβάρις, Βαρχονίτες) were remnants of the Northern Xuŋa, who took on the name of the ancient Avar, a Mongolic tribe that once roamed Inner-Asia. While a member of the Tägäräk confederation, they first appeared in the West during the 5th century C.E.
The Aşıŋa (Late Han Chinese: 烏孫 *ʔɑ-suən; Middle Chinese: 阿史那 *ʔâ-ṣɨ-nâ) were originally a Late Antique people who inhabited the regions west of the Xuŋa. Some of their female descendants would marry into the Ju-qu clan, adopting their people’s ethnonym as a clan name. Others would migrate to Turän where they would be assimilated into local Iranic and later Turkic populations. The former group would go on to establish the Kök Türük Qağanate.
