Upon the Name, The Society and the Origins of Governor Titles of Kushan
Journal Title: Ankara Üniversitesi Dil ve Tarih-Coğrafya Fakültesi Dergisi - Year 2017, Vol 57, Issue 2
Abstract
India, one of the three greatest peninsulas in the south of Asia, has been an important center for the migration of different cultural and ethnic communities throughout the history. These Central Asia originated societies settled in the north of India, establishing bigger states and empires over time, and played an important role in the political history of India. As one of these societies, Kushans were a well-established empire that dominated a vast geography extending from Central Asia to a large part of North India. It is believed that Kushans who had a strong evidence of Turkish origins originated from the Yuechis tribe of the Central Asian homeland. In the context of the relevant literature, we will try to convey the assumptions about the origins of the names, the name of the society and the ruler names, or the titles of the rulers in the period during which this Yuechi tribe was in the process of being a great exponential empire.
