Plutarchs-Characitani-Turkic-Karakitan


Lage des Kara-Kitai-Reiches um 1200


Bu bilgi heryerde yok!

Plutarhos, yaklaşık 2100 yıl önce, Romalı komutan Sertorius tarafından yerlerinden edilen, İspanya’nın Katalonya bölgesinde yaşamış olan Karakitan < Characitani (Χαρακιτανοί) adlı bir halktan bahseder: Adı bana tanıdık geldi!

ENGLISH : Plutarch mentions a people called Karakitan < Characitani (Χαρακιτανοί), who lived in the Spanish region of Catalonia, who were displaced by the Roman commander Sertorius about 2100 years ago. Their names sound familiar to me!

The Qara Khitai or Kara Khitai (Chinese喀喇契丹pinyinKālā QìdānMongolianХар Хятан; literally "Black Khitan") empire (1124[note 1]–1218),[6] also known as the Western Liao (traditional Chinese西遼simplified Chinese西辽pinyinXī Liáo) dynasty, officially the Great Liao (大遼大辽Dà Liáo),[7][8] was a sinicized[9][10][11]dynastic empire in Central Asia ruled by the Khitan Yelü clan, and a successor state to the Liao dynasty. The dynasty was founded by Yelü Dashi (Emperor Dezong of Liao), who led the remnants of the Liao dynasty from Manchuria to Central Asia after fleeing from the Jin dynasty conquest of their homeland in northern China. The empire was usurped by the Naimans under Kuchlug in 1211; traditional Chinese, Persian, and Arab sources consider the usurpation to be the end of the dynasty,[12] even though the empire would not fall until the Mongol conquest in 1218. The Qara Khitai is considered by historians to be a legitimate dynasty of China, as is the case for the preceding Liao dynasty.[13][14]

The territories of the Qara Khitai corresponded to parts of modern-day ChinaKazakhstanKyrgyzstanMongoliaTajikistan, and Uzbekistan. The Anushtegin dynasty, the KarluksQocho, the Kankalis, and the Kara-Khanid Khanate were vassal states of the Qara Khitai at some point in history.

It is a nice Turkic word "kara" meaning simply BLACK.


A big geographical and time gap and such a similarity.


Interesting!

They are really similar to each other.
Aren't they?

Even Nisanyan says they have the same root, but doesn't tell more:

 Romalı komutan Aulus Platius, 2000 yıl önce, Britanya’da BODUNİ adlı kavme boyun eğdirmiş. Bunların bağlaşığı olan ‘Kelt’ kavminin bir başbuğunun adı benim ‘Karatavuk’ diye okuduğum Karatakus imiş.

Bir önceki yazımda Bodun/Bodın/Budun sözcüğüne değinmiştim:

ENGLISH VERSION:

Roman commander Aulus Platius subdued a tribe called BODUNI in Britain 2000 years ago. The name of a chief of the 'Celtic' tribe, which is their ally, was Karatakus, which I read as Turkish 'Blackbird'.

I wrote about Herodotus' Bodun word Buduni:

Herodotus-Budini-Turkic-word-Budun



 

Herodotus-History-Tarih


Herodotus wrote about nomadic 'the BUDINI' who lived east of Don River. Aristoteles wrote that the Budini had a place called Kariskos where they raised BLACK sheep.

I see here 2 Turkic words:

Budin~Budun (the tribesmen) 
and 
Kar/kara~black. Karisyk; KAra and (SIK?)


*
Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budini
and https://de.wikisource.org/wiki/RE:Budinoi

*

a Polish scholar attempts an etymological explanation and he found out that their name should mean "tribesmen". 
Budun means simply "tribesmen" in Turkic. 
A very old word. Prof. Osman Karatay wrote about as far as I can remember about this issue in his newest book, too. Interesting?

We come always closer to Scythians' possible Turkic roots with those names like Tauri (Dağ eri = Mountain dwellers) and Budini.
