''An Introduction to the History of Turkic Peoples'', p. 142-143 were a 7th- to 8th-century Turkic nomadic tribe who mostly inhabited the Dzungaria region in the northwest of modern-day China. Originally a forest people, Basmyls eventually grew in importance and played a prominent role in the Turkic politics from the 6th century. At one point Basmyls even overthrew the Second Turkic Khaganate's dynastic clan and briefly held the Khaganate with the help of Karluks and Uyghurs, who later turned against Basmyls. Basmyl supreme leaders were the first to use the term ''Ydyk-kut'', which replaced ''khagan''; Qocho Uyghur rulers of Turpan likewise titled themselves Ydyk-kuts. The title contains two components: the first component ''Ïdïq/Ydyk'' means " eavensent, sacred"; the second ...

Esegel
Esegels (aka ''Izgil'' ( otk, 𐰔𐰏𐰠), ''Äsägel'', ''Askel'', ''Askil'', ''Ishkil'', ''Izgil'') were a dynastic tribe, of Turkic linguistic affiliation, in the Middle Ages who joined and would be assimilated into the Volga Bulgars. Numerous records about Esegels in sources and works of many languages across the span of the Eurasia left numerous variations of their name. M. Räsänen suggested Uralo-Altai etymology of this word: ''Es-kil'', ''Es-gil'' "Old city", Gumilyov initially linked the Izgils to the ''Sijie'' (思结) of the Toquz Oghuz; only to later re-identify Izgils with ''Xijie'' (奚結), another Tiele tribe. However, Zuev (2002) distinguished Izgil (> Ch. *''a-siək-kiet'' 阿悉結 > ''Axijie'', a Western Tujue tribe according to Chinese sources) from Igil (> Ch. *''ɣiei-kiet'' 奚結 > ''Xijie'', a Tiele tribe) though Zuev controversially links the Igils 奚結 to the Bulgarian clan Uokil and the Indo-European-speaking ''Augaloi'' in Transoxania.
