Anatolian-God-Kakasbeos-Kakasbos-Kakasba-Kakazbeo-versus-Turkish-KakizBay

Mr. Pauly mentions Kakasbos/Kakasbeus, an equestrian god from Asia Minor (today Türkiye). Kakasba was also found as a third version on steles (see link below). We can see even Kakazbei as a fourth version:




There are etymological tries but they are not certain.

I have a better idea!

Türkish words Kakız and Bay would be a 100% compatible. 

> Kakasbos / Kakasbeus = Kakız Bay

*

Let me explain these Türkish words: 

Kakı- means to be angry > Kakız: mean a brave hero, (maybe an angry/aggressive one). 

We read in Oghuz Kagan legend

"oğuz kağan bir iriz kakız kişi irdi." =(Oghuz Kagan was a brave man).

+

Bay meant in Türkish holy or God (himself). (see Bay-ana, a Türkish goddess).

That means Kakız-Bay would mean a "brave (aggressive) God". A very Türkic name that is compatible with Türkish onomastics. 

*

I think these 2 names are compatible with each other. 

Again we can write them down together like:

Kakasbos / Kakasbeus / Kakasba / Kakazbeo = Kakız Bay
