Ancient-toponymy-Baruk-Baruka-Baruklia-versus-Turkic-Bark-Barik-Barikli


*Paulys RE*

 

*

***Baruk, Baruka, Baruklia***

*

Pauly mentions in his encyclopedia three town names.

Baruk, Baruka and Baruklia.

Two of them were in Ancient Albania (Caucasia) and the third one in Ancient Phrygia/Anatolia. 

*

Old Türkic words bark/barık meant house; emperor's palace; mausoleum or temple with altar. All are closed places and all are a good choice for a town name.

Baruklia is a 100 % compatible with the Türkic word Barıklı, meaning a place with a temple/chieftains house and it could be easily a capital. (Barıklı = lit. "with a barık").

They were maybe places with temple with altar (for the local deity) or maybe the house/palace of the chieftain. All three are conceivable for a place of residence. 

These three have probably the Old Türkic verb bar- (to go) at their roots. 

*

These three are again an indicator for Türk existence in those regions of the earth in ancient times.
