Proper captions have now been added to this video, in case you wanted more text on screen. The Cuman-Kipchak tribes played an important role in the history of the western Mongol Empire, but like many of this period, are not looked at on their own. Here, we have a look at their potential origins and influence. Note that Cumans would act as mercenaries in Eastern Europe for some time after 1240, which you see, from what I understand, in the recent video game Kingdom Come: Deliverance, which I have never played. Cuman communities settled in Hungary and today still recognize themselves as Cumans, though have long since sedenterized, Christianized and adopted Hungarian.
While researching this topic, I found a video from 'Kazakh TV' on TH-cam, which looked at the Desht-i Qipchaq. It was made by Kazakhs, and it was very cool to see that they saw the Qipchaq as their direct ancestors. I imagine there must be real pride to feel such immediate connection with your ancestors going back centuries. Living in Canada, separated from my family's ancestral homeland, and traditions, it is hard to not feel jealous at that identity.
Please read my two comments to your video. Otherwise this is a very good video, but take a look at what I said in my comments as it is really important
Hello! I just want you to know that I've seen your comments, but I don't have time yet to read them fully or respond. I will try to do so in the next day or so, if that is ok. I think you have good points, so I don't want you to think I am ignoring them. Cheers!
Unpopular opinion here, but i actually don't hate the Cumans in the game. I know that it is fitting for Henry's character background p to hate the Cumans, but honestly Henry seems like he wants to hate the people who killed his parents, but just can't bring himself to have that hatred. Cumans are people, who have families, dreams, ambitions, etc.
Kazakhs, Kyrgyzs, Nogays, Karakalpaks, Bashkirs, Tatars are related to Kipchaks. Most of modern people of Kazakhstan are descendants of Kipchaks. Some of western Kipchaks/Cumans migrated and assimilated in Hungary, Bulgaria, Crimea and north Caucasus.
Also, some of the Kipchaks/Cumans went to Thrace through the Russian steppes and mixed with Anatolian Turkmens who got replaced from Anatolia to Thrace.
@@stillsickkk They also come to the Eastern Anatolia. My dad's village has Cuman/Kipchak graves with balbals buried underground (apparently due to earthquakes and such).
The reason why the Cuman were sought after so ruthlessly by the Mongols is because when the Mongols united the tribes in the east, they declared all step nomads were under the hegemony of the Mongol Khan. In the eyes of the Mongols, the fact they resisted Mongol rule made them rebels. And rebels weren't tolerated in the Mongol Empire.
I really love their little interactions with Subutai and his troops right after the crossed the Caucasus Mountains. How they were bribed, tricked and slaughtered while retreating. How vegeance drove the survivors to ask Rus principalties and were later slaughtered again, because of their hatred. Kings and Generals serie on the mongol invasion, especially their incusion into Europe is fascinating.
Common goal of all Medieval Turk and Mongol Khans was uniting all tribes under one flag. Genghis Khan maneged to unite most of the tribes but not all of them. Even like %80 unity made Genghis' Empire devistatingly powerful. There is one Khan in history that united all tribes %100. Modu Chanyu aka Oghuz Khan of Turks.
I think kipchak tribes was the power who was really able to stop mongols. And how symbolic, that Kipchak mamluks known in a "mainstream" history as a force who have been "first" who stopped mongols. Which actually debatable point, especially if you know Jalal at dins achievements. Kipchaks was a huge power, they was even able to conquer Baghdad in alliance with Kwaresm, but their fatal problem was.. They have been separated and different parts of them had their own relations and conflicts with different countries.. Russian principalities, Khwaresm and east Europe. Mongols have been United under one ruler and even made other nomadic tribes to serve them including some of kipchaks. legendary roman analogy of how mongols defeated kipchaks is.. How the Last of Horatti brothers, alone killed three of Curiatti brothers. But after mongol invasion, Kipchak steppe became finally the United state of kipchaks under mongol rule.. Which known as Golden horde. Mongols, like it often happens in history, assimilated among kipchaks took their language and became modern tartar, bashkir, nogai, kazakh, karakalpak and even russians. I think kipchak and mongols had many cultural and lifestyle similarities. Have you noticed one thing..? Since Hunnu migration, nomads of eurasian steppe almost followed same journey. From central Asian steppes and Altai mountains to the lands around Panonia. Hunnu then.. Avar, Bulgar, Magyar (Hungarians), kipchaks and finally mongols. Maybe it already exists. a term which describing it.. Something like "the great eurasian nomadic highway"😂 thanks for new video, your uploads always a kind of a little holiday 😉
There were some Song Dynasty envoys to the Mongols over the 1220s, and there is a reference to the Qipchaq in them. The envoys record the Mongols basically considering the Qipchaq to be their greatest single military threat. And from the Mongol perspective, this makes a lot of sense. By that point, the Mongols' power was based on the steppe, and happened to control some sedentary territory. As one Mongol is recorded as saying, the people in the cities will stay in their cities, but the nomads could continue fall back, regroup, and continue to pose a threat. One only needs to look at the career of Temujin to see that. It was easy to imagine the Mongol leadership being concerned that some charismatic figure could unite the Cuman-Qipchaqs to challenge the Mongols, much how Temujin had united the Mongols. Ultimately, as it did elsewhere, the disunity of their enemy allowed the Mongols to conquer them. And in time, the disunity of the Mongols would allow their enemies to defeat them. It is always like how the mother of Bodunchar Munkhag showed: one arrow alone is easy to break, but many together are strong.
To the East was the sea. Not much land or pasture to expand or to escape to. To the West, by contrast, there was indeed a highway = long stretch of steppes all the way to Europe. Easy for horses. This expansion (of course some caused by rivalry) reminds me of the tradition of Chin/Han Empirical law of Shared Inheritance (Father should give equal land to their sons). So, Chinese lords tried to acquire more and more land, expanding China. Maybe the nomads learnt t from them haha. Chingis Khan gave his sons whole empires.
Thank you very much! Kipchaks are the most "underrated" peoples in history. Still, in most maps about Mongol conquest of Central Asia you see an empty space where Kipchaks lived.
The reason for that is that I like to show that these regions and peoples are not isolated, and the movements of a group on one end of Asia can have long term consequences for an area on the opposite end of the continent centuries later. I was surprised to learn of the Qipchaq/Olberli connection with the Delhi Sultans. That is why I love being able to do these videos, and learn about connections like that. It also explains some of the Mongol animosity to those regions: the Qipchaq were supposed to be their slaves/property (the Mongol idea of kingdom initially focused more on people than territory) yet to see them ruling in Delhi and Cairo must have been particularly vexing.
There was actually some Mongols, being aligned to the Jochids, that once war broke out between the Golden Horde and Ilkhanate fled to the Mamluk state (similarly, Mongols in the east fleeing the intercine warfare of the Ilkhans, Chagatai Khanate and Negudereis would flee to the Delhi Sultanate). The Kipchak-Turkic influence seems to have brought some knowledge of Mongol tactics, and I believe one or maybe more of the Mamluk Sultans was actually of Mongolian descent. As it was, the Mamluks had a clear understanding of warfare, and I am sure they acquired as much information Mongol tactics as possible, knowing everything rided on Ayn Jalut (and later close encounters). The best way to understand an enemy is to respect their ability.
You did a very good job, but I have something to add on this topic. Kipchaks and Cumans played also a big role in the history of the Oghuzes in the Middle East. Prof. Dr. Sencer Divitçioğlu wrote in his book ''Orta Asya Türk Tarihi Üzerine Altı Çalışma'' that a big group of Kipckaks/Cumans were present in the Seljuq Empire, raiding the regions between Azerbaijan and central Anatolia against the Byzantine Empire. Ibn Bibi (13.th Century) also wrote that the Anatolian Seljuq Sultan Izzeddin founded an army based on Kipchaks, Yiva and others , against his rebellious brother Rükneddin. Prof. Dr. Sencer also stated that the Kipchaks helped the Seljuqs in the conquest of Syria. The Kipchaks / Cumans under Seljuq rule also later founded the Atabeglik/Atabeylik (Eldiguzids - 1136-1225) of Azerbaijan, until they were conquered by the Khwarazmian Empire. The Eldiguzids (Muslim Kipchaks) and Anatolian Seljuq Beyliks (using Kipchak soldiers) also fought against the Kingdom of Georgia, which (like you said) was supported by the Kipchaks in the northern Caucasus (who converted to Christianity a long time ago). Some Kipchaks/Cuman also fled to Azerbaijan after the Mongol conquest, according to Ziya Bünyatov (Azerbaycan Atabeyler Devleti) Kipchaks and Cumans were also used by the Byzantine Empire. According to the historian Paul Wittek, ten thousands of Cumans / Kipchaks were settled in to Anatolia (With Bulgars and Pechenegs) and later used against the Seljuqs. One legend says ( I have not found a written source on this) that the Cuman and Pecheneg soldiers in the Byzantine Army changed sides in the Battle of Manzikert, as they saw that their enemy spoke the same tongue as them.
Great share! I love comments like these, especially on areas I don't know as strongly like the Seljuqs or pre-Mongol Caucasus. I didn't know about the connection between the Eldeguzids and the Qipchaq, though I too have heard about the Qipchaq at Manzikert, but I''m not familiar enough with the details of that battle to be able to have an opinion on that. The Seljuqs are a weakness of mine: I don't know nearly as much about them as I would like, so I am always hesitant to write much on them. It takes me a lot of researching to have the confidence in a topic to put up a video on it (even for the Mongol Empire, which I know very well), and the Seljuqs are a very large (but very fascinating!) topic. Originally I had a bit more to say on them here, but it was cut for time and I didn't feel like I had researched that aspect enough to comment on it. One thing I have wondered about (which I had considered looking into for this video) is if the Oghuz migrations that led to the founding of the Great Seljuq state was connected to the movements of the Qipchaq-Cumans, or Kemek or Pecheneg. But I wasn't able to in time find a satisfactory answer to that. There is unfortunately a limit to how much I can include in a 10-15 minute video (it isn't as much information as many think!) and I had to draw on the line on looking into that.
The Cumans and the Tatars were nomadic warriors of the Eurasian steppe who exerted an enduring impact on the medieval Balkans. With this work, István Vásáry presents an extensive examination of their history from 1185 to 1365. The basic instrument of Cuman and Tatar political success was their military force, over which none of the Balkan warring factions could claim victory. As a consequence, groups of the Cumans and the Tatars settled and mingled with the local population in various regions of the Balkans. The Cumans were the founders of three successive Bulgarian dynasties (Asenids, Terterids and Shishmanids) and the Wallachian dynasty (Basarabids). They also played an active role in Byzantium, Hungary and Serbia, with Cuman immigrants being integrated into each country's elite. This book also demonstrates how the prevailing political anarchy in the Balkans in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries made it ripe for the Ottoman conquest.
9:24 it's interesting, something exactly the same happened in Mamluk Egypt. In a time when Ayibids started to lose their power over Egypt. When crusaders attacked Mansurra, Ayibid sultan Salikh was ill or even died. And if I'm not mistaken, a woman from his Harem Shadiyar (Shajar at durr) ruled over country. And mamluk warlords like Beibars, Qutuz, Aibek admitted her as "Sultanna". But unlike Raziya Sultana in Delhi, she's finally not became a legitimate Sultanna. I'm not sure but seems reason was.. Khaliph of Baghdad who got a "holy" power of giving a "formal legitimacy", didn't wanted to make a former concubine of Sultan, as an "equal" to Khaliph. But she didn't left her hands out of power. It's long and interesting story, but before Qutuz and Beibars came to power. Lot of mamluks died for a fight to take a power including Shadiyar, her next husband Mamluk Aibek, her son Turanshakh
Very interesting, I didn't know about her at all. One suggestion I've seen for Raziyya Sultana's ascension in Delhi was due to the influence of the steppe/Qipchaq culture, wherein roles for women would be less strike. Though the Mongols and Khitans were not turkic, there were a number of very powerful women among both and the Khitan dynasties, the Liao and the Qara-Khitai, both had female empresses, while the Mongols had female regents who for a few years essentially were the rulers of the empire. So potentially the environment of the growing influence of the Turkic Mamluks in the final years of the Ayyubids possibly allowed a woman to come to power there (it looks like some historians even theorize that Shajar was turkic herself). Since the Caliph would have more influence in Cairo than in Delhi, it is also possible to see how that could have restricted her to ruling in full. But I don't know enough about the Ayyubid-Mamluk transition to say that with much certainty. As you say, it was such an unstable time that a strong person able to wield influence no matter their gender could have gained power. As it was, Raziyya only reigned as Delhi Sultan for four years, after Iltutmish's primary heirs had died, and was overthrown for looking to favour non-Turkic elements of the court. So not exactly a groundbreaking reign.
I hope to do videos on each in time, as I love to learn as much as I can on all these peoples. The Volga Bulgars I am already looking at, due to their interaction with Subutai, but the Gokturks and Khazars will be much further away in time.
@@TheJackmeisterMongolHistory gokturk = turkey when gokturk empire fall some of the turkic people stay in asia some of them go tp anotolia before kuman kipchak confederacy oghuz yabgu state was living there then oghuz yagbus move to anotolia then make seljuq empire then 2nd seljuk empire then anotolia
@@okaninhoolmao do you think modern day turks are same with Gokturks ? there are lots of grave founded in Mongolia and Most of them have Mongol dna.if you dont have Mongol dna on you then you are not REAL TURK.where are you from btw?Turkey ?
I have recently taken up a fascination with the Siberian Turks. Do you plan on doing any videos about these more obscure groups? I'm loving these videos. Keep it up!
I would love nothing more than to have an entire library of videos on these well known peoples. For now, any videos that aren't on the Mongols themselves will be on groups who were related to, or interacted with, the Mongols in some manner, and then later on discuss peoples more distant in space and time (like as another comment suggested, the Avars or Hepthalites).
@Random Person yes turkic. it is true. kipchaks are turkic. today the name of "turk "represents republic of turkey, balkan turks and turks in europe and cyprus
@Random Person i will tell you one more and last thing. cumans-kipchaks are a turkic group just like uighurs oghuz. they have a medieval textbook named cuman codex. even i can understand it with my native turkish language. ok ? after mongol barbarism and invasions kipchaks and mongols mixed. many mongols asimilated into kipchaks and modern kazak kyrgyz and tatar nations were born. that's why i said "kipchaks are important for turkish/turkic history"
@Random Person turkic and turkish are related. you think that they are completely different. yes, turkic tribes migrated and invated anatolia , mixed with indigenous people and modern turks born after ottoman empire and republic of turkey. as i understand , you think that turkic and turkish are different completely. cant you understand the semantic ? turkish/turkic. modern turkish people have some turkic roots and still using turkic language. how can i explain you more. are you 15 years old ?
@@spiritofthesteppe3701 Kazakhs are not descendants of Kipchaks in patrilineal sense. At leasth half or more are descendants of the Mongol tribes or tribes that came with them during invasion. Kipchak tribe itself is only one of the many and not even the big one among Kazakh tribes.
Stuff like this is awesome, i think analizing different accounts of lesser known steppe people is something you should do more on the channel. Like the Hunnic relation to the Xiongnu and the Hepthalites, or the Avars etc. Keep it up!
Thank you! My hope is to do more like this in the future. The main thrust of the channel will still be the Mongols, and when I do videos like this it will be on groups who were related to, or interacted with, the Mongols in some way (which also helps with the research for my videos on the Mongol conquests) before I go and step out for more distant people like the Hepthalites or Avars.
@@TheJackmeisterMongolHistory Ok cool, if you want to stay with the mongols, you could probably still find some interesting things with the Xiongnu, since they were proto - mongolic and are believed by many to be the ancestors to the Huns we commonly know from the eastern European steppe. It's still very contested if the Huns were Turkic, Mongolic, Scythian, Iranian etc etc. The only real indicator of what they were are their recorded names, we also have some discriptions by roman ambassadors. Here are some names - Dengizich, Ruga, Mundzuc, Bleda, Balamber, Hormidac, Oebar, Edeco, Attila Etc etc. And here is a discription of Attila by the roman diplomat priscus - "Short of stature, with a broad chest and a large head; his eyes were small, his beard thin and sprinkled with grey; and he had a flat nose and tanned skin, showing evidence of his origin" There is some real interesting stuff, you should dig into it when you have covered the mongols!
@@gemino4910 Hunnic ruler and tribal names are very clearly Oghur Turkic and Bulgars, Onogurs, Akatziri, Sabirs, Utigurs, Kutrigurs, Saragurs were their remnants. 0 iranic or mongolic tribe🤣
It's a very interesting video and account of history but please can I ask you use a simpler style of test that is easier to read on screen.... I had real problems trying to read it. Thanks

This is a super interesting niche channel i watched one of your other videos and i didn't know theres so much to know about the Mongols who in most peoples minds are morphed into a homogeneous "barbaric horseman"
Thank you! I always think niche is better. Rather than cover 100 topics broadly, the amount both ourselves and others learn is so much more by covering one topic in detail.
The Russian name of the cumans Polovtsy (yellows) came as a direct translation of “sari-qipchaq” as they called themselves (yellow qipchaq), not because of their hair color. In many asian traditions, including mongolian and turkic, cardinal directions have colors, and yellow or golden is the center, hence the Golden Horde (again, not because they were blonde). Other central asian people with colors in their name - Gökturks (blue turks), white huns, black huns. Also - seas around Anatolia in turkish named after colors - karadeniz (black sea), kizildeniz (red sea), akdeniz (mediterranean sea)
Dude, it is recorded in Arab sources that they are very light skinned, blue eyed and blonde. Likewise, the Chinese also refer to the Kyrgyz (a Kipchak Tribe) as having red hair and colored eyes. It speaks directly about this in Latin sources. In other words, Turks can also have blond hair and colored eyes. There's no point in denying that. My father, who is a Turk, has slanted eyes, but I have red-blond hair and blue/green central heterochromic eyes. Turks had many phenotypes because they married women from many different tribes. So this is normal.
Also, the Cumans headed west. If they were to be identified by a color that would be black or white. So that's not appropriate, dude. Also, the Göktürks are not like you think, it's probably related to Göktanrı (God of Sky) . The Ashina clan, who gave the name Turk and founded the Gokturk empire, is a white tribe. Probably relatives with the Wusuns. It is written in Chinese sources that Mukan Kagan has auburn hair and blue eyes. And DNA tests show that they carry the Scythian gene and belong to haplogroups R1a,R1b and N.
@@enesacer9014 If Turkic people were descendants of Scythians, they would be speaking an indo European language since Scythians were Iranic speakers. The closest living descendant of this language is Ossetian. The Turkic homeland is in the Mongolian steppes and eastern Siberia, they expanded and moved west over the centuries in different directions! They absorbed and ejected the previous inhabitants of the Central Asian steppes since as early as the second century, by the 6th to 7th century Central Asia was thoroughly Turkic.
@@enesacer9014 The Kyrgyz of old, (yenesei Kyrgyz) and the modern Kyrgyz are not a “kipchak tribe“, the modern Kyrgyz nationality developed from a kipchak speaking confederation of Turkic and turko mongolian tribes. And the Yenesei Kyrgyz didn’t speak a kipchak dialect, they spoke a Siberian Turkic dialect that would be more closer to Sakha rather than Kyrgyz or Kazakh even.
Very interesting video ; I recently found one of Khan Köten's daughters is my direct ancestor so it was nice to see a few history videos on this nation.
Would that daughter be Elizabeth the Cuman by any chance? I will actually be talking a little about her and the Cumans in Hungary in a video coming out in early February!
@@TheJackmeisterMongolHistory that would be correct ! through her daughter Mary of Hungary, Queen of Naples on I believe 6 or 7 distinct lines. I've been trying to trace past Khan Koten but the only thing I could find is a rumor that his father was Khan Suthoi.
@@LaSenioraKittehz Unfortunately, you are unlikely to find more on Kotjen beyond that. We know he was an important Cuman chief, as he married another one of his daughters to Mstislav of Galicia, but it's not until about 1222/1223, when the Mongols killed the most powerful Cuman -Qipchaq chiefs, that Kotjen really stands out and gets attention in the sources. I think there is a few earlier mentions of him, but there is very little information about him before the Kalka River battle. It's commonly mentioned that his clan was the Terteroba, but I think tracing the clan's history to before Kalka is also difficult. Our sources are often only interested in the nomads when they start dealing with sedentary powers- and for Kotjen, it's that 1222/1223 where he starts interacting with them beyond that marriage alliance.
@@TheJackmeisterMongolHistory The closest i could get to tracing it beyond kalka is a rumour that he was related to Khan Otrok who was involved in fighting with the rus in the very early 12th century.
I'm a Cuman based on the father's lineage, just north of Danube. My male ancestors all had blue eyes and blond hair (FWIK until puberty during the last generations). Thanked for the video, I was familiar with some of this history, please keep it up Jackmeister!
This strange phenomenon, losing the blond color in hair, after puberty strikes, is called the "Balkan Blond". It is manifested in many people in the area. Being it of a slavic, cuman, roman, turkic, bulgarian, greek, latin, rus, viking, hun, albanian and-a-million-other-peoples-throughout-the-ages origin, the effect is always that the blond hair seem to dissapear after puberty and become brown. Possibly to counter the increased sunlight after the ice age. And the blue eye gene is also getting gradually repressed in the area, for the same reason.

@Sweet Angel I was told my grand grandfather was like this too. Also, our last name in Romanian (Coman) means "Cuman", which the existing residents used to name the cumans who settled in their area.
@Sweet Angel it sounds like your ancestors were the Kipchaks. Cumans were the western part (blond blue eyes), Kipchaks the eastern part, mongoloid looking: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumans (read under 'Names and etymology').
Good video! A Cuman is here. My ancestors are from Macedonia, around the Danube (Romania/Bulgaria) and Ukraine. I have blue eyes, light-brown/blond hair, tall and fit. My cheekbones are high. I have a bit slant eyes.
Your chance of being Cuman is sadly too low. Yet your name is Anatolian Turkish and Balkan Turks has the lowest Turkic ancestory. Also phenotype doesn't explain genotype.
Fatih Koç They are Cuman Tatar, how can they be Anatolian Turks? My grandparents used to use words from Cuman dialect mostly. At home we did not use to use modern Turkish. Search for it. And happily, my chance is way too high. And phenotype explains very well. So with your logic, a man who is black may not be African too. Come on... My grandma is from Cumanova, Macedonia. Does it explain anything? Another grandma is from Crimea. My grandfathers are from Romania, today Bulgaria. They are all known as Tatar villages. They have slant eyes. Do you need more information? They have never been to Anatolia before. We are all different from another Turks who came from Anatolia to Balkans. Tatars and the Turks who went to Balkans from Anatolia are not same. Dig in the history more.
Fatih Koç I have searched each word that we used to speak at home and compared it to Cuman dialect. I did my research very well. Do not care. Words are matching My family’s phenotypes’ are matching What else will you find?
@@turk_rebel_1percenter Its a common thing to Balkan Turks to have blonde phenotype but what im actually curious about is that how did you found how the Cuman dialect was? There isn't any Cuman writtings exists. There is only Codexus Cumanicus whic is written by Europeans to make trade with Cumans. You probably searched how the old Turkic languages sound like and then you found out some words and sayings. But nearly all the old Turkic languages are nearly the same.
Thank you! I will 100% cover the Timurids in the future, but I don't know when that will be. Certainly after I finish with Chinggis Khan's career. I'm really interested in comparing Timur and Chinggis, and I don't think you can study Timur without understanding the world left behind by the Mongol Empire, or Timur's own intentional comparisons to Chinggis Khan.
Kazakhs have a Kipchak tribe in Middle Juz, a Kangli tribe in Senior Juz and a Nogai tribe in Junior Juz, in total about 1 million to 1.5 million Cuman Kipchaks in its 18 million modern population. Unfortunately most Kipchaks were either sold as slaves or forced to migrate elsewhere and got assimilated after the Mongol(Tatar) conquest.
@@saqeralthawara2342 For sure! Well, I would say both. We are known as “blonde Turks” so mostly Aryan features but also a lot of Asian features. There is also a mix of both, like blonde hair with Asian eyes, high cheeck bones😊
@@Beyzatomris Thank you for your reply, have you ever heard of Baybars The Father of Conquest? He was a Kipchak warrior in the 13th century who converted to Islam and Ruled Egypt , Syria and Palestine and defeated the Mongols . In the Arab world we consider him a hero who saved us from the Mongols .
Ah, yes! The Cumans. This video has proven quite useful actually. In my upcoming novel series, the Cumans play a vital role as antagonists, as their role in founding the Second Bulgarian Empire leads to them clashing with a revitalised Eastern Roman Empire multiple times, and their conflicts with the Romans is actually what leads to an alliance between the Mongols and the Romans, as they both see the Cumans as a mutual common enemy.
If you are into describing Cumans, just so y'know they are these Eurasian looking people with distinct blonde hair and blue eyes and pale skins. They are like tall white people with pale skins but their eyes are shaped like asians, y'know slanted. And they are always described to be beautiful.
I do honestly want to know, if it's still a living language, are there resources that would allow me to learn the Kipchak language? If so, does anyone have a link? EDIT! So I have found that some information is available through Kazakhstan sources, I'm glad to know that such a resource exists! Thank you to the folks at "Kazakh TV" for being there as a resource. It's very difficult to find anything with English subtitles otherwise.

I'm an Ahiska Turk from northeastern Turkey (Black Sea coast). My ancestors were Kipchaks. My grandparents used many weird words durign my childhood. Later on, when I grew up and read books on Turkish dialects and the etymology of modern Turkish words, I realized that those "weird words" are actually of Kipchak origin.
My family traced our ancestors to the Yuan Dynasty prime minister El Temur. The descendants of him scattered among Southwestern China and lived to today. It’s interesting to hear about our family’s story. 😂

All from the same breed and coming from same location, i.e. central asia
I’m Crimean Tatar, and my nation is considered as the direct inherit of Cumans and Codex Cummanicus ( a dictionary written in Cuman) is proof of this, since the Cuman language is closest to the current Crimean Tatar. Another interesting fact: in Codex Cummanicus the language called itself “Tatar tili” - Tatar language. Tatar - is our authonym. The dictionary was written before the Mongolian invasion, which proves that Tatars were living in Crimea long before the Mongolian rule. Unfortunately after years of colonization, marginalization and deportation my people were forced to forget our great history. So thank you for your video!
With all due respect, Cumans were horse riders, free spirited warriors. Modern tatars submitted to easily to Russian tsar. I doubt that you are direct successors of great warriors of the Steppes.
@@danasingapore135 well, there’s a thing that is called “development”. In 10-15 centuries Crimean Tatars were famous for their horse riders and stuff like that, but with the creation of state borders, the need for a sedentary life arose. The army was no longer the same as before, life in general was no longer the same as before. Plus, Crimean Khanate was the longest living successor of the Golden Horde. Crimean Tatars are the direct descendants of the Cumans, we bare their language and culture, there’s no doubt in it. And these are not my words, it’s a historical fact.

Hey will make a video about the chagatai And ilkhanate invasion of India in which they were severly defeated.Btw great video are you planning on making a video about the yuan invasion java and vietnam (they are rarely talked about)
I hope to in time talk in detail about the Mongol defeats in India, Vietnam, Java, and other areas (as well as many other topics!) There are a lot of very poorly known or understood areas of this period I would love to walk about, it is just a matter of time and resources to deal with them. And I want to get through more of the Mongol's successes so it can be a 'foundation' to compare to why in some areas they were so successful, while also suffering repeated defeats in others.
Greymon The name ? What about the names of the “turkic” Bulgar rulers (none of turkic origin) How come there is such a huge lack of archaeological, anthropological and linguistic data? Not to mention that dozens of genetic studies have been conducted on the Bulgarian population from which it became clear that there were none of the haplogroups (Q,C and O) which are common for the Turkic peoples.It is funny how we have plenty of anatolian turks here repeating like parrots “The Bulgars are turks” and their only argument is the the root of the ethnonym “Bulga” (mix/mixed/to mix) but hey this ethnonym means a lot of things in different languages too.
you mention of turkic and kipchak as if they are two separate things and this creates a convoluted mess. this is wrong, Kipchak is a subfamily of Turkic peoples. Kipchak, Oghuz, Karluk are all turkic peoples who share a similar culture and language.
Thank you! There is some scholarship, but it isn't as well known, especially outside of specialists. One of my hopes with these series is to spark interest in more people in these topics, and expand their historical thinking, which seems mostly limited to Greece, Rome, the Crusades and then the Second World War, especially on TH-cam.
Yes A Yes, sadly for the most part Western historians are biased and clueless. I'm very grateful for learning about my ancestral culture, history, language and traditions. I was taught by my father and a number of University professor's that were personal friends of our family from Hungary, so I was very fortunate.
@@DarkKhagan can you name me one group of historians that arent biased? We westerners certainly are the least ones. You wont see modern mongolians or turks ashamed of their past and trying to rewrite it
Yea we dont, because it didnt affect West Europe so yea makes sense and I dont blame us so badly. But definetly Czechs, Hungarians and Bulgarians pay attention to it though.
@@HeadhuntexGamer No offense intended, I was merely stating something I had encountered years ago studying in my American (High School) World History class. So when I say Western, I'm mainly referring to the American History book's that I read in highschool. The textbooks were not really accurate about the Avars and Magyars. I will give a small bit of information that many may not know. The Arpadian Confederation of Ten Tribes (7 Magyar tribes) and 3 joint tribes including the remnants of 1) The Avars 2) The dissident Kavars (Kabars) tribes who joined from the Revolt against the Khazars and 3) The Transylvanian frontier guards The Sekély Btw, the entire Magyar Army and nation did not go on kalandvágy (wanderlust adventure raids) like was previously assumed. On every mission, the Magyars forces undertook, whether it was just two groups of 10000 horseman or more had to be carefully decided upon in advance and all the preparations where made according to what the mission entailed. Another thing that wasn't really mentioned was the many places where the 9th-10th Magyars appeared throughout Europe, example: The German states, like Bavaria, and Franconia, many Magyars were employed as mercenaries and the other places they appear was due to internal politics like feuding members of the families would call upon the Magyars to help tip the balance in their favor. Also not the entire Magyar army would participate in the so called raids of western Europe. A good example is the sacking of the Cathedral in Aachen, it contained all of the Avar treasures that was sacked when Charlemagne waged his ruthless war against the Avars. So the remaining Avars peaceful joined the ranks of the Magyar warriors in retaliation and took back the Avar treasures.
Proper captions have now been added to this video, in case you wanted more text on screen.
The Cuman-Kipchak tribes played an important role in the history of the western Mongol Empire, but like many of this period, are not looked at on their own. Here, we have a look at their potential origins and influence.
Note that Cumans would act as mercenaries in Eastern Europe for some time after 1240, which you see, from what I understand, in the recent video game Kingdom Come: Deliverance, which I have never played. Cuman communities settled in Hungary and today still recognize themselves as Cumans, though have long since sedenterized, Christianized and adopted Hungarian.
Kipchak is one of the tribes inside Kazakh nation
While researching this topic, I found a video from 'Kazakh TV' on TH-cam, which looked at the Desht-i Qipchaq. It was made by Kazakhs, and it was very cool to see that they saw the Qipchaq as their direct ancestors. I imagine there must be real pride to feel such immediate connection with your ancestors going back centuries. Living in Canada, separated from my family's ancestral homeland, and traditions, it is hard to not feel jealous at that identity.

1st time in a game we can see the cumans well made
Kazakhs, Kyrgyzs, Nogays, Karakalpaks, Bashkirs, Tatars are related to Kipchaks. Most of modern people of Kazakhstan are descendants of Kipchaks.
Some of western Kipchaks/Cumans migrated and assimilated in Hungary, Bulgaria, Crimea and north Caucasus.
And Cossacks?
many cumans became hungarian nobles and assimilated into hungarian culture.
Also, some of the Kipchaks/Cumans went to Thrace through the Russian steppes and mixed with Anatolian Turkmens who got replaced from Anatolia to Thrace.
@@stillsickkk They also come to the Eastern Anatolia. My dad's village has Cuman/Kipchak graves with balbals buried underground (apparently due to earthquakes and such).
Also some Turkic groups from North Caucasus such as Kumyks, Balkars, Karachays.
The reason why the Cuman were sought after so ruthlessly by the Mongols is because when the Mongols united the tribes in the east, they declared all step nomads were under the hegemony of the Mongol Khan.
In the eyes of the Mongols, the fact they resisted Mongol rule made them rebels. And rebels weren't tolerated in the Mongol Empire.
I really love their little interactions with Subutai and his troops right after the crossed the Caucasus Mountains. How they were bribed, tricked and slaughtered while retreating. How vegeance drove the survivors to ask Rus principalties and were later slaughtered again, because of their hatred. Kings and Generals serie on the mongol invasion, especially their incusion into Europe is fascinating.
@@hxcvocalist yes
The Mongols just wanted to know why the Cumans could make two town centers in the Feudal Age.
Common goal of all Medieval Turk and Mongol Khans was uniting all tribes under one flag. Genghis Khan maneged to unite most of the tribes but not all of them. Even like %80 unity made Genghis' Empire devistatingly powerful. There is one Khan in history that united all tribes %100. Modu Chanyu aka Oghuz Khan of Turks.

I think kipchak tribes was the power who was really able to stop mongols. And how symbolic, that Kipchak mamluks known in a "mainstream" history as a force who have been "first" who stopped mongols. Which actually debatable point, especially if you know Jalal at dins achievements. Kipchaks was a huge power, they was even able to conquer Baghdad in alliance with Kwaresm, but their fatal problem was.. They have been separated and different parts of them had their own relations and conflicts with different countries.. Russian principalities, Khwaresm and east Europe. Mongols have been United under one ruler and even made other nomadic tribes to serve them including some of kipchaks. legendary roman analogy of how mongols defeated kipchaks is.. How the Last of Horatti brothers, alone killed three of Curiatti brothers. But after mongol invasion, Kipchak steppe became finally the United state of kipchaks under mongol rule.. Which known as Golden horde. Mongols, like it often happens in history, assimilated among kipchaks took their language and became modern tartar, bashkir, nogai, kazakh, karakalpak and even russians. I think kipchak and mongols had many cultural and lifestyle similarities. Have you noticed one thing..? Since Hunnu migration, nomads of eurasian steppe almost followed same journey. From central Asian steppes and Altai mountains to the lands around Panonia. Hunnu then.. Avar, Bulgar, Magyar (Hungarians), kipchaks and finally mongols. Maybe it already exists. a term which describing it.. Something like "the great eurasian nomadic highway"😂 thanks for new video, your uploads always a kind of a little holiday 😉
There were some Song Dynasty envoys to the Mongols over the 1220s, and there is a reference to the Qipchaq in them. The envoys record the Mongols basically considering the Qipchaq to be their greatest single military threat. And from the Mongol perspective, this makes a lot of sense. By that point, the Mongols' power was based on the steppe, and happened to control some sedentary territory. As one Mongol is recorded as saying, the people in the cities will stay in their cities, but the nomads could continue fall back, regroup, and continue to pose a threat. One only needs to look at the career of Temujin to see that. It was easy to imagine the Mongol leadership being concerned that some charismatic figure could unite the Cuman-Qipchaqs to challenge the Mongols, much how Temujin had united the Mongols.
Ultimately, as it did elsewhere, the disunity of their enemy allowed the Mongols to conquer them. And in time, the disunity of the Mongols would allow their enemies to defeat them. It is always like how the mother of Bodunchar Munkhag showed: one arrow alone is easy to break, but many together are strong.

@@TheJackmeisterMongolHistory thank you for your stories and very proud that mongols as nomadic tribe surprisingly have documented their history
To the East was the sea. Not much land or pasture to expand or to escape to. To the West, by contrast, there was indeed a highway = long stretch of steppes all the way to Europe. Easy for horses. This expansion (of course some caused by rivalry) reminds me of the tradition of Chin/Han Empirical law of Shared Inheritance (Father should give equal land to their sons). So, Chinese lords tried to acquire more and more land, expanding China. Maybe the nomads learnt t from them haha. Chingis Khan gave his sons whole empires.
Steppe pride haha I'm not turkic but i'm Hungarian and most possibly might have some east asian gens in me.
Thank you very much! Kipchaks are the most "underrated" peoples in history. Still, in most maps about Mongol conquest of Central Asia you see an empty space where Kipchaks lived.
fun fact a modern turkish speakers can read %70 or %80 kıpçak inscriptions
I like that you mentioned the Mamluks in this video!!!
The reason for that is that I like to show that these regions and peoples are not isolated, and the movements of a group on one end of Asia can have long term consequences for an area on the opposite end of the continent centuries later. I was surprised to learn of the Qipchaq/Olberli connection with the Delhi Sultans. That is why I love being able to do these videos, and learn about connections like that. It also explains some of the Mongol animosity to those regions: the Qipchaq were supposed to be their slaves/property (the Mongol idea of kingdom initially focused more on people than territory) yet to see them ruling in Delhi and Cairo must have been particularly vexing.
I read that the Mamluks of Cairo looked at Mongol military practices as ideal, so I believe that the Cairo Mamluks admired the Mongols to some degree.
There was actually some Mongols, being aligned to the Jochids, that once war broke out between the Golden Horde and Ilkhanate fled to the Mamluk state (similarly, Mongols in the east fleeing the intercine warfare of the Ilkhans, Chagatai Khanate and Negudereis would flee to the Delhi Sultanate). The Kipchak-Turkic influence seems to have brought some knowledge of Mongol tactics, and I believe one or maybe more of the Mamluk Sultans was actually of Mongolian descent.
As it was, the Mamluks had a clear understanding of warfare, and I am sure they acquired as much information Mongol tactics as possible, knowing everything rided on Ayn Jalut (and later close encounters). The best way to understand an enemy is to respect their ability.
Yes. One of the sultans of the Bahri Period was of Mongol origins, Al-Adil Kitbuqa!!!

Prof. Dr. Sencer Divitçioğlu wrote in his book ''Orta Asya Türk Tarihi Üzerine Altı Çalışma'' that a big group of Kipckaks/Cumans were present in the Seljuq Empire, raiding the regions between Azerbaijan and central Anatolia against the Byzantine Empire. Ibn Bibi (13.th Century) also wrote that the Anatolian Seljuq Sultan Izzeddin founded an army based on Kipchaks, Yiva and others , against his rebellious brother Rükneddin. Prof. Dr. Sencer also stated that the Kipchaks helped the Seljuqs in the conquest of Syria. The Kipchaks / Cumans under Seljuq rule also later founded the Atabeglik/Atabeylik (Eldiguzids
- 1136-1225) of Azerbaijan, until they were conquered by the Khwarazmian Empire. The Eldiguzids (Muslim Kipchaks) and Anatolian Seljuq Beyliks (using Kipchak soldiers) also fought against the Kingdom of Georgia, which (like you said) was supported by the Kipchaks in the northern Caucasus (who converted to Christianity a long time ago). Some Kipchaks/Cuman also fled to Azerbaijan after the Mongol conquest, according to Ziya Bünyatov (Azerbaycan Atabeyler Devleti)
Kipchaks and Cumans were also used by the Byzantine Empire. According to the historian Paul Wittek, ten thousands of Cumans / Kipchaks were settled in to Anatolia (With Bulgars and Pechenegs) and later used against the Seljuqs. One legend says ( I have not found a written source on this) that the Cuman and Pecheneg soldiers in the Byzantine Army changed sides in the Battle of Manzikert, as they saw that their enemy spoke the same tongue as them.
Great share! I love comments like these, especially on areas I don't know as strongly like the Seljuqs or pre-Mongol Caucasus. I didn't know about the connection between the Eldeguzids and the Qipchaq, though I too have heard about the Qipchaq at Manzikert, but I''m not familiar enough with the details of that battle to be able to have an opinion on that.
The Seljuqs are a weakness of mine: I don't know nearly as much about them as I would like, so I am always hesitant to write much on them. It takes me a lot of researching to have the confidence in a topic to put up a video on it (even for the Mongol Empire, which I know very well), and the Seljuqs are a very large (but very fascinating!) topic. Originally I had a bit more to say on them here, but it was cut for time and I didn't feel like I had researched that aspect enough to comment on it.
One thing I have wondered about (which I had considered looking into for this video) is if the Oghuz migrations that led to the founding of the Great Seljuq state was connected to the movements of the Qipchaq-Cumans, or Kemek or Pecheneg. But I wasn't able to in time find a satisfactory answer to that. There is unfortunately a limit to how much I can include in a 10-15 minute video (it isn't as much information as many think!) and I had to draw on the line on looking into that.
Yeah, Atabek Eldeniz
I doubt language has much of an impact who people fought for. Esp mercenaries.
The Cumans and the Tatars were nomadic warriors of the Eurasian steppe who exerted an enduring impact on the medieval Balkans. With this work, István Vásáry presents an extensive examination of their history from 1185 to 1365. The basic instrument of Cuman and Tatar political success was their military force, over which none of the Balkan warring factions could claim victory. As a consequence, groups of the Cumans and the Tatars settled and mingled with the local population in various regions of the Balkans. The Cumans were the founders of three successive Bulgarian dynasties (Asenids, Terterids and Shishmanids) and the Wallachian dynasty (Basarabids). They also played an active role in Byzantium, Hungary and Serbia, with Cuman immigrants being integrated into each country's elite. This book also demonstrates how the prevailing political anarchy in the Balkans in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries made it ripe for the Ottoman conquest.

9:24 it's interesting, something exactly the same happened in Mamluk Egypt. In a time when Ayibids started to lose their power over Egypt. When crusaders attacked Mansurra, Ayibid sultan Salikh was ill or even died. And if I'm not mistaken, a woman from his Harem Shadiyar (Shajar at durr) ruled over country. And mamluk warlords like Beibars, Qutuz, Aibek admitted her as "Sultanna". But unlike Raziya Sultana in Delhi, she's finally not became a legitimate Sultanna. I'm not sure but seems reason was.. Khaliph of Baghdad who got a "holy" power of giving a "formal legitimacy", didn't wanted to make a former concubine of Sultan, as an "equal" to Khaliph. But she didn't left her hands out of power. It's long and interesting story, but before Qutuz and Beibars came to power. Lot of mamluks died for a fight to take a power including Shadiyar, her next husband Mamluk Aibek, her son Turanshakh
Very interesting, I didn't know about her at all.
One suggestion I've seen for Raziyya Sultana's ascension in Delhi was due to the influence of the steppe/Qipchaq culture, wherein roles for women would be less strike. Though the Mongols and Khitans were not turkic, there were a number of very powerful women among both and the Khitan dynasties, the Liao and the Qara-Khitai, both had female empresses, while the Mongols had female regents who for a few years essentially were the rulers of the empire.
So potentially the environment of the growing influence of the Turkic Mamluks in the final years of the Ayyubids possibly allowed a woman to come to power there (it looks like some historians even theorize that Shajar was turkic herself). Since the Caliph would have more influence in Cairo than in Delhi, it is also possible to see how that could have restricted her to ruling in full. But I don't know enough about the Ayyubid-Mamluk transition to say that with much certainty. As you say, it was such an unstable time that a strong person able to wield influence no matter their gender could have gained power.
As it was, Raziyya only reigned as Delhi Sultan for four years, after Iltutmish's primary heirs had died, and was overthrown for looking to favour non-Turkic elements of the court. So not exactly a groundbreaking reign.
There were other unique turkic people such as the gokturks, khazars, and volga bulgars
I hope to do videos on each in time, as I love to learn as much as I can on all these peoples. The Volga Bulgars I am already looking at, due to their interaction with Subutai, but the Gokturks and Khazars will be much further away in time.

@@okaninhoolmao do you think modern day turks are same with Gokturks ? there are lots of grave founded in Mongolia and Most of them have Mongol dna.if you dont have Mongol dna on you then you are not REAL TURK.where are you from btw?Turkey ?
I have recently taken up a fascination with the Siberian Turks. Do you plan on doing any videos about these more obscure groups?
I'm loving these videos. Keep it up!
I would love nothing more than to have an entire library of videos on these well known peoples. For now, any videos that aren't on the Mongols themselves will be on groups who were related to, or interacted with, the Mongols in some manner, and then later on discuss peoples more distant in space and time (like as another comment suggested, the Avars or Hepthalites).
Kipchaks are very very important for turkish history.
@Random Person yes turkic. it is true. kipchaks are turkic. today the name of "turk "represents republic of turkey, balkan turks and turks in europe and cyprus
@Random Person so what ?
@Random Person i will tell you one more and last thing. cumans-kipchaks are a turkic group just like uighurs oghuz. they have a medieval textbook named cuman codex. even i can understand it with my native turkish language. ok ? after mongol barbarism and invasions kipchaks and mongols mixed. many mongols asimilated into kipchaks and modern kazak kyrgyz and tatar nations were born. that's why i said "kipchaks are important for turkish/turkic history"
@Random Person you are not able to understand. good bye.
@Random Person turkic and turkish are related. you think that they are completely different. yes, turkic tribes migrated and invated anatolia , mixed with indigenous people and modern turks born after ottoman empire and republic of turkey. as i understand , you think that turkic and turkish are different completely.
cant you understand the semantic ? turkish/turkic. modern turkish people have some turkic roots and still using turkic language. how can i explain you more. are you 15 years old ?
My grandmother was kipchak! I am Kazakh
My mother kipchak
I am also a Kazakh, we r descendants of the kipchaks
@@spiritofthesteppe3701 Kazakhs are not descendants of Kipchaks in patrilineal sense. At leasth half or more are descendants of the Mongol tribes or tribes that came with them during invasion. Kipchak tribe itself is only one of the many and not even the big one among Kazakh tribes.
Stuff like this is awesome, i think analizing different accounts of lesser known steppe people is something you should do more on the channel. Like the Hunnic relation to the Xiongnu and the Hepthalites, or the Avars etc. Keep it up!
Thank you! My hope is to do more like this in the future. The main thrust of the channel will still be the Mongols, and when I do videos like this it will be on groups who were related to, or interacted with, the Mongols in some way (which also helps with the research for my videos on the Mongol conquests) before I go and step out for more distant people like the Hepthalites or Avars.
@@TheJackmeisterMongolHistory Ok cool, if you want to stay with the mongols, you could probably still find some interesting things with the Xiongnu, since they were proto - mongolic and are believed by many to be the ancestors to the Huns we commonly know from the eastern European steppe. It's still very contested if the Huns were Turkic, Mongolic, Scythian, Iranian etc etc. The only real indicator of what they were are their recorded names, we also have some discriptions by roman ambassadors.
Here are some names - Dengizich, Ruga, Mundzuc, Bleda, Balamber, Hormidac, Oebar, Edeco, Attila Etc etc.
And here is a discription of Attila by the roman diplomat priscus - "Short of stature, with a broad chest and a large head; his eyes were small, his beard thin and sprinkled with grey; and he had a flat nose and tanned skin, showing evidence of his origin"
There is some real interesting stuff, you should dig into it when you have covered the mongols!
@@gemino4910 Xiongnu/Huns were Tiele-Göktürk-Onogur related people but you are believing they were Mongolic peoples and not Turkic🤣
@@gemino4910 Hunnic ruler and tribal names are very clearly Oghur Turkic and Bulgars, Onogurs, Akatziri, Sabirs, Utigurs, Kutrigurs, Saragurs were their remnants. 0 iranic or mongolic tribe🤣

This is a super interesting niche channel i watched one of your other videos and i didn't know theres so much to know about the Mongols who in most peoples minds are morphed into a homogeneous "barbaric horseman"
Thank you! I always think niche is better. Rather than cover 100 topics broadly, the amount both ourselves and others learn is so much more by covering one topic in detail.
The Russian name of the cumans Polovtsy (yellows) came as a direct translation of “sari-qipchaq” as they called themselves (yellow qipchaq), not because of their hair color. In many asian traditions, including mongolian and turkic, cardinal directions have colors, and yellow or golden is the center, hence the Golden Horde (again, not because they were blonde). Other central asian people with colors in their name - Gökturks (blue turks), white huns, black huns. Also - seas around Anatolia in turkish named after colors - karadeniz (black sea), kizildeniz (red sea), akdeniz (mediterranean sea)
Dude, it is recorded in Arab sources that they are very light skinned, blue eyed and blonde. Likewise, the Chinese also refer to the Kyrgyz (a Kipchak Tribe) as having red hair and colored eyes. It speaks directly about this in Latin sources. In other words, Turks can also have blond hair and colored eyes. There's no point in denying that. My father, who is a Turk, has slanted eyes, but I have red-blond hair and blue/green central heterochromic eyes. Turks had many phenotypes because they married women from many different tribes. So this is normal.
Also, the Cumans headed west. If they were to be identified by a color that would be black or white. So that's not appropriate, dude. Also, the Göktürks are not like you think, it's probably related to Göktanrı (God of Sky) . The Ashina clan, who gave the name Turk and founded the Gokturk empire, is a white tribe. Probably relatives with the Wusuns. It is written in Chinese sources that Mukan Kagan has auburn hair and blue eyes. And DNA tests show that they carry the Scythian gene and belong to haplogroups R1a,R1b and N.
The Turks are descendants of the Scythians, so it's not surprising.
@@enesacer9014 If Turkic people were descendants of Scythians, they would be speaking an indo European language since Scythians were Iranic speakers. The closest living descendant of this language is Ossetian. The Turkic homeland is in the Mongolian steppes and eastern Siberia, they expanded and moved west over the centuries in different directions! They absorbed and ejected the previous inhabitants of the Central Asian steppes since as early as the second century, by the 6th to 7th century Central Asia was thoroughly Turkic.
@@enesacer9014 The Kyrgyz of old, (yenesei Kyrgyz) and the modern Kyrgyz are not a “kipchak tribe“, the modern Kyrgyz nationality developed from a kipchak speaking confederation of Turkic and turko mongolian tribes. And the Yenesei Kyrgyz didn’t speak a kipchak dialect, they spoke a Siberian Turkic dialect that would be more closer to Sakha rather than Kyrgyz or Kazakh even.
Very interesting video ; I recently found one of Khan Köten's daughters is my direct ancestor so it was nice to see a few history videos on this nation.

on I believe 6 or 7 distinct lines. I've been trying to trace past Khan Koten but the only thing I could find is a rumor that his father was Khan Suthoi.
@@LaSenioraKittehz Unfortunately, you are unlikely to find more on Kotjen beyond that. We know he was an important Cuman chief, as he married another one of his daughters to Mstislav of Galicia, but it's not until about 1222/1223, when the Mongols killed the most powerful Cuman -Qipchaq chiefs, that Kotjen really stands out and gets attention in the sources. I think there is a few earlier mentions of him, but there is very little information about him before the Kalka River battle. It's commonly mentioned that his clan was the Terteroba, but I think tracing the clan's history to before Kalka is also difficult.
Our sources are often only interested in the nomads when they start dealing with sedentary powers- and for Kotjen, it's that 1222/1223 where he starts interacting with them beyond that marriage alliance.
@@TheJackmeisterMongolHistory The closest i could get to tracing it beyond kalka is a rumour that he was related to Khan Otrok who was involved in fighting with the rus in the very early 12th century.
Wait, my ancestor is khan köten too
Your pronunciation is amazing, it's rare to see anyone get any of these perfect, much less all of them.
“Codex Cumanicus” is a Latin-Cuman Lexicon. Cumans speaked a turkic language.
I'm a Cuman based on the father's lineage, just north of Danube. My male ancestors all had blue eyes and blond hair (FWIK until puberty during the last generations).
Thanked for the video, I was familiar with some of this history, please keep it up Jackmeister!
This strange phenomenon, losing the blond color in hair, after puberty strikes, is called the "Balkan Blond". It is manifested in many people in the area. Being it of a slavic, cuman, roman, turkic, bulgarian, greek, latin, rus, viking, hun, albanian and-a-million-other-peoples-throughout-the-ages origin, the effect is always that the blond hair seem to dissapear after puberty and become brown. Possibly to counter the increased sunlight after the ice age. And the blue eye gene is also getting gradually repressed in the area, for the same reason.

@Sweet Angel I was told my grand grandfather was like this too. Also, our last name in Romanian (Coman) means "Cuman", which the existing residents used to name the cumans who settled in their area.
@Sweet Angel it sounds like your ancestors were the Kipchaks. Cumans were the western part (blond blue eyes), Kipchaks the eastern part, mongoloid looking: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumans (read under 'Names and etymology').

Good video!
A Cuman is here. My ancestors are from Macedonia, around the Danube (Romania/Bulgaria) and Ukraine.
I have blue eyes, light-brown/blond hair, tall and fit. My cheekbones are high. I have a bit slant eyes.
Your chance of being Cuman is sadly too low. Yet your name is Anatolian Turkish and Balkan Turks has the lowest Turkic ancestory. Also phenotype doesn't explain genotype.
Fatih Koç They are Cuman Tatar, how can they be Anatolian Turks? My grandparents used to use words from Cuman dialect mostly. At home we did not use to use modern Turkish.
Search for it. And happily, my chance is way too high.
And phenotype explains very well.
So with your logic, a man who is black may not be African too.
Come on...
My grandma is from Cumanova, Macedonia. Does it explain anything?
Another grandma is from Crimea.
My grandfathers are from Romania, today Bulgaria. They are all known as Tatar villages. They have slant eyes.
Do you need more information? They have never been to Anatolia before. We are all different from another Turks who came from Anatolia to Balkans.
Tatars and the Turks who went to Balkans from Anatolia are not same.
Dig in the history more.
Fatih Koç I have searched each word that we used to speak at home and compared it to Cuman dialect. I did my research very well. Do not care.
Words are matching
My family’s phenotypes’ are matching
What else will you find?
@@turk_rebel_1percenter Its a common thing to Balkan Turks to have blonde phenotype but what im actually curious about is that how did you found how the Cuman dialect was? There isn't any Cuman writtings exists. There is only Codexus Cumanicus whic is written by Europeans to make trade with Cumans. You probably searched how the old Turkic languages sound like and then you found out some words and sayings. But nearly all the old Turkic languages are nearly the same.
Fatih Koç It was really bullshit to judge me from my name.
I mean, there was a sprinter who’s name was Elvan but she was from Africa?
So? 😂
Your videos are great, I hope to see a video about Timurids from you.
Thank you! I will 100% cover the Timurids in the future, but I don't know when that will be. Certainly after I finish with Chinggis Khan's career. I'm really interested in comparing Timur and Chinggis, and I don't think you can study Timur without understanding the world left behind by the Mongol Empire, or Timur's own intentional comparisons to Chinggis Khan.
Very good video my brother👍👍👍

Really feel quite hungry
Ah, yes! The Cumans. This video has proven quite useful actually. In my upcoming novel series, the Cumans play a vital role as antagonists, as their role in founding the Second Bulgarian Empire leads to them clashing with a revitalised Eastern Roman Empire multiple times, and their conflicts with the Romans is actually what leads to an alliance between the Mongols and the Romans, as they both see the Cumans as a mutual common enemy.
If you are into describing Cumans, just so y'know they are these Eurasian looking people with distinct blonde hair and blue eyes and pale skins. They are like tall white people with pale skins but their eyes are shaped like asians, y'know slanted. And they are always described to be beautiful.
I do honestly want to know, if it's still a living language, are there resources that would allow me to learn the Kipchak language? If so, does anyone have a link?
EDIT! So I have found that some information is available through Kazakhstan sources, I'm glad to know that such a resource exists!
Thank you to the folks at "Kazakh TV" for being there as a resource. It's very difficult to find anything with English subtitles otherwise.

I’m Crimean Tatar, and my nation is considered as the direct inherit of Cumans and Codex Cummanicus ( a dictionary written in Cuman) is proof of this, since the Cuman language is closest to the current Crimean Tatar. Another interesting fact: in Codex Cummanicus the language called itself “Tatar tili” - Tatar language. Tatar - is our authonym. The dictionary was written before the Mongolian invasion, which proves that Tatars were living in Crimea long before the Mongolian rule. Unfortunately after years of colonization, marginalization and deportation my people were forced to forget our great history. So thank you for your video!
With all due respect, Cumans were horse riders, free spirited warriors. Modern tatars submitted to easily to Russian tsar. I doubt that you are direct successors of great warriors of the Steppes.
@@danasingapore135 well, there’s a thing that is called “development”. In 10-15 centuries Crimean Tatars were famous for their horse riders and stuff like that, but with the creation of state borders, the need for a sedentary life arose. The army was no longer the same as before, life in general was no longer the same as before. Plus, Crimean Khanate was the longest living successor of the Golden Horde. Crimean Tatars are the direct descendants of the Cumans, we bare their language and culture, there’s no doubt in it. And these are not my words, it’s a historical fact.
@@danasingapore135 What Inflammatory, disgraceful crap you speak. Crimean Khanate was independent for centuries and battled against the growing massive Russian Empire for hundreds of years, sacking Moscow occasionally. Go back to the ditch you crawled out of

I hope to in time talk in detail about the Mongol defeats in India, Vietnam, Java, and other areas (as well as many other topics!) There are a lot of very poorly known or understood areas of this period I would love to walk about, it is just a matter of time and resources to deal with them. And I want to get through more of the Mongol's successes so it can be a 'foundation' to compare to why in some areas they were so successful, while also suffering repeated defeats in others.

@@ЇаннъЄархъ well technically name supports it but meh
Greymon The name ? What about the names of the “turkic” Bulgar rulers (none of turkic origin) How come there is such a huge lack of archaeological, anthropological and linguistic data? Not to mention that dozens of genetic studies have been conducted on the Bulgarian population from which it became clear that there were none of the haplogroups (Q,C and O) which are common for the Turkic peoples.It is funny how we have plenty of anatolian turks here repeating like parrots “The Bulgars are turks” and their only argument is the the root of the ethnonym “Bulga” (mix/mixed/to mix) but hey this ethnonym means a lot of things in different languages too.
you mention of turkic and kipchak as if they are two separate things and this creates a convoluted mess. this is wrong, Kipchak is a subfamily of Turkic peoples. Kipchak, Oghuz, Karluk are all turkic peoples who share a similar culture and language.
Sadly there were no mentioning about the Manavs who are descends of the Cumans who migrated to Anatolia
Nice video, i think western historians don't pay enough attetion to kipchak history
Thank you! There is some scholarship, but it isn't as well known, especially outside of specialists. One of my hopes with these series is to spark interest in more people in these topics, and expand their historical thinking, which seems mostly limited to Greece, Rome, the Crusades and then the Second World War, especially on TH-cam.

Yes, sadly for the most part Western historians are biased and clueless. I'm very grateful for learning about my ancestral culture, history, language and traditions. I was taught by my father and a number of University professor's that were personal friends of our family from Hungary, so I was very fortunate.

@@HeadhuntexGamer
No offense intended, I was merely stating something I had encountered years ago studying in my American (High School) World History class. So when I say Western, I'm mainly referring to the American History book's that I read in highschool. The textbooks were not really accurate about the Avars and Magyars.
I will give a small bit of information that many may not know. The Arpadian Confederation of Ten Tribes (7 Magyar tribes) and 3 joint tribes including the remnants of
1) The Avars
2) The dissident
Kavars (Kabars) tribes who joined from the Revolt against the Khazars and
3) The Transylvanian frontier guards The Sekély
Btw, the entire Magyar Army and nation did not go on kalandvágy (wanderlust adventure raids) like was previously assumed.
On every mission, the Magyars forces undertook, whether it was just two groups of 10000 horseman or more had to be carefully decided upon in advance and all the preparations where made according to what the mission entailed.
Another thing that wasn't really mentioned was the many places where the 9th-10th Magyars appeared throughout Europe, example: The German states, like Bavaria, and Franconia, many Magyars were employed as mercenaries and the other places they appear was due to internal politics like feuding members of the families would call upon the Magyars to help tip the balance in their favor.
Also not the entire Magyar army would participate in the so called raids of western Europe. A good example is the sacking of the Cathedral in Aachen, it contained all of the Avar treasures that was sacked when Charlemagne waged his ruthless war against the Avars. So the remaining Avars peaceful joined the ranks of the Magyar warriors in retaliation and took back the Avar treasures.
