Sabucia-gens-etymology-Turkic-Sabik-Sabuk

 


*

Wikipedia says:

"The gens Sabucia was a minor plebeian family at ancient Rome. Members of this gens are first mentioned in imperial times. The most illustrious of the family was Gaius Sabucius Major Caecilianus, who obtained the consulship in AD 186. Other Sabucii are known from inscriptions.[1][2]"

and continues:

"The historian Anthony Birley indicates that the Sabucii were of Etruscan origin.[2]"

*

This family name Sabucia corresponds with Türkic sap- (to stick, to stab) or seb- (to love).

*

Just a moment, only this similarity should explain the origin

of this name?

No! Of course no!

*

There were very prominent men in the Türk history like

Sabuktigin (Sebük Tigin, Sabuktagin, Sabuktakin) a Türk king, was the founder of the Ghaznavid dynasty, and amir of Ghazna from 977 to 997. Sabuktigin was a Turkic slave who was bought by Alp-Tegin, the commander of the royal guard of the Samanid dynasty. His Türkic name was Sebük Tegin, meaning "beloved prince" (wikipedia). 

Sabuk was probably the form how not-Türks heard it. 

*

Sabık Basar is a very old name that is attested in very old Türkic inscriptions. 

*

These two examples could explain the etymology of that Roman gentes. 

*

There are many more Roman family name with a possible Türkic

origin like:
