Kumyk people
Kumyks (Kumyk: къумукълар, qumuqlar, Russian: кумыки) are a Turkic people living in north-eastern Dagestan. The territories traditionally populated by Kumyks, and where their historical states used to exist, are called Kumykia.[1][2][3] The land inhabited by Kumyks once used to be a part of a Kumyk statehood Tarki Shamkhalate.[4]
Their origins can be traced to Sunni-Kipchak Cossacks and the Borchali (or Burjoglu), originally the name of a seventeenth century Turkic tribe that settled in Caucasian Georgia with Turkic-Khazar roots.[5] Montclair State University professor H. Mark Hubey traces the origins of the Kumyk people to the Bronze/Iron Age tribe Kumukku of the Ancient Near East.[6] Kumyks are divided into six clans:[5] Arpali (connected with the Árpád dynasty), Sarali, Targulu, Zhan-Ahmetli, Chagarli and Ulashli. The dialects of the Kumyks are: Kaitag, Terek, Buynaksk and Xasavyurt.
Kaitag (Mountain Kayı), which for ten centuries (10–19 cc.) was a lingua franca in the North Caucasus, is the Russified name of the Kayı tribe who played a prominent role in the history of the Caucasus. Kaitag principality was a leading component of the Shamkhalate of Kazi-Kumukh state on the Caspian western seaboard that, in different forms, lasted from the 8th to the 19th centuries.[7][8]
Kaitag textiles, stamped out under Soviet rule, their artistry and artistry remain distinct.
