Where did the earliest Turkic tribe move from?

Somewhere in Mongolia/central Asia i believe. Perhaps the ancestors of the modern Turks were the horsemen who came into conflict with the Assyrians before settling down and founding the Hittite Empire

Originally posted by Hadifclz were did the earliest turkic tribe move from, I mean , the asian huns forefathers were the xun yu and xiun yu and other steppe people, but they hade a comman with the ancestors of the mongols called the quan di or something, , were did the forefahters of the earlest turks come from,

Probably, West Mongolia and Russia(Areas near mongolia), but not today's political Central Asia

The term of Central Asia can expand to much and it usually uses for just Russian Central Asia (land of new independent countries from Russia), so I don't want to use it.



light blue is pro-turks; green is pro-mongolian


The first turkic writing found in there, North Mongolia

Originally posted by Hadifclz did they come form the same area the indians of america went from.
