ON ONE OFFICIAL TITLE AMONG  THE YENISEI QÏRQÏZ IN 9TH CENTURY

Tishin V. V.

The article is devoted to the discussion of the personal name of one of the Yenisei Qïrqïz embassy member to the Táng 唐 imperial court in 842, Yuán-yīn-suō yè-hàn ā-yǐ-shí 元因娑拽汗阿已時, mentioned in chapter 8 of «Collection (of Works] of the Huì-chāng Period» [Huì-chāng yī-pǐn jí 会昌一品集], composed by Lǐ Dé-yù 李德裕 (Lǐ Wèi-gōn-g 李卫公). The study attempts to reconstruct the original pronunciation of the name recorded in the Chinese transcription, which, in the author’s opinion, allows to propose several considerations regarding the socio-political organization of Qïrqïz, at least, by the 40th years of 9th century.
