YABAKU Tribe acc. to Kashgari

Iapygians acc. to Wikipedia

Yabaku/Yabāqu is a fairly enigmatic tribe out of ten prominent Türkic tribes enumerated by Mahmut Kashgari. According to GoldenTurkicYabâqu /Yapağu was probably translated from, or a Turkic rendition of, an ethnonym of a bilingual people "with a complex ethno-linguistic heritage“.

Iapyges (Yapyges) Their origin is unknown. According to Herodotus they came to Italy (Puglia) with Pelasgians (11th or 10th C, BCE)

[3] They know their own language, but they also know Turkish well.

Iapygians (Yapigians) no certain idea about their language (assumed to be IndoEuropean) Nothing is sure about it.

Long haired men, they sacrifice living horses, Iapygian funeral traditions were distinct from those of neighbouring Italic peoples

According to Herodotus they came to Italy (Puglia) with Pelasgians

Kashgari named „Yapâqu suw“ as one a river flowing over Kashgar from mountains in Ferghana

Pliny wrote that there is a river called Iapyx (Yapiks) called after the name of a king (son of Daidalos) and the land Iapygia is called after his name

yabaku: Acc. to Kashgari wool, fleece wool, yapağı…. Yabāqu is from Turkish wool, meaning "originally 'felted hair or wool', and then an animal characterized by this can be etymologized from the word 'foal', for example. Zoonyms or hipponyms are known as Turkic ethnonyms with some possible totem origin.(WIKIPEDIA)

Archaeological evidence suggests that transhumance was practised in pre-Roman Iapygia during the first millennium BC, and that wide areas of the region were reserved to provide pasture for transhumant sheep.[37] Weaving was indeed an important activity in the 5th and 4th centuries BC. The textile made from wool was most likely marketed in the Greek colony of Taranto, and the winter destination of Iapygian pastoralists probably located in the Tavoliere plain, where the weaving industry was already well developed by the seventh or early sixth century BC, as evidenced by the depiction of weavers at work on a stelae.[37]
