Old Great Bulgaria: Origins, Culture and Legacy of the Ancient Bulgars
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 июл 2024
- The 7th century was a time of great upheaval in the Eurasian Steppe Belt. As the Turkic Khaganat, the first transcontinental Turkic Empire in history, pushed into Europe, it drove several steppe people to the west, notably the Avars. But a certain group of nomadic warriors located in modern-day Ukraine persisted in all of these arrivals: the Bulgars. These Turkic people spoke Oguric, the same Turkic dialect that was prevalent among the Huns in Europe and the White Huns in Central Asia, and are synonymous with the Onogur, a successor state to the Hunnic Empire of Attila. After the Turkic Empire’s complete disintegration, pressure from the Khazars and the newly arriving Majars made the Bulgar tribes leave their home, embarking on a journey to the southwest.
There, they founded the First Bulgar Empire and consolidated their rule in the northeast Balkans. In the following centuries, the Bulgars waged many wars against the Avars in the west, Magyars in the north, and the mighty Byzantine Empire in the east. As more nomadic Turkic peoples arrived from the steppe, including the Pechenegs and the Kipchak, the Bulgarians' identity was changing. Over time, they converted to Orthodox Christianity, and mixed with Slavic peoples, in the process adopting the Slavic language. While the political affairs of the Bulgarian Empire are well known, its pre-history - the history of Old Great Bulgaria - remains relatively obscure. We have mentioned the Bulgars many times on this channel, and will finally explore their complete history: from their roots among the Onogur people, to their traditions and culture, a possible connection to the Dulo tribe of the Göktürks, and their most prominent leaders.

Roman chronographs are just one "dominant" source of information(misinformation), reliabale and truthful in the same manner as bbc, nbc,.. they had all the time of dark ages to make "our history" how they see fit..
the Romans didnt call them Old Great Bulgaria, that is a modern term
Thanks!
Tangra was not mentioned even once in whole 1500 years of Bulgarian history. So I am not sure where you get the information that Tangrism was popular among Bulgars :D Biggest missinformation ever. Even in Volga Bulgaria state the mention of Tangra start from 13-14th century, most likely due to Mongol influence.
The confusion comes from the prior assumption that Bulgars are Turks. Since Turks were Tangrists and Bulgarians are Turks, then logically Bulgarians are also Tangrist. However, both statements are not true. Bulgarians are not Turks and not Tangrists. There is not even 1 document (written source) to suggests that Bulgars worshipped Tangra. There isn't any momument or shrine or anything in modern archaeology to suggest that Bulgars worshipped Tangra.

Bulgarians using a varient of the Cyrilic alphabet????
"The Cyrillic script is a writing system developed in the First Bulgarian Empire during the 9th century. It was created to write the Old Church Slavonic language, which was the first Slavic literary language. The script is named after Saint Cyril, one of the two Byzantine brothers, Cyril and Methodius, who were credited with standardizing the Slavic languages and, thus, bringing literacy and Christianity to the Slavic peoples."
So we can easily say that Bulgarians are the creators of the script,it was literally made by them for them?
"Yes, it's accurate to attribute significant credit to the Bulgarians for the creation and dissemination of the Cyrillic script. The script was indeed developed in the First Bulgarian Empire during the 9th century. While Saints Cyril and Methodius, who were Byzantine brothers, are often credited with its creation, it's important to clarify their roles and the context in which Cyrillic was developed.
Cyril and Methodius were primarily responsible for the creation of the Glagolitic script, the oldest known Slavic alphabet, which they devised to translate the Bible and other texts into the Old Church Slavonic language for the Great Moravia territory (present-day Slovakia and Czech Republic). Their mission was part of a broader effort to spread Christianity among the Slavic peoples of Eastern Europe. The Glagolitic script was the basis for the development of the Cyrillic script.
The Cyrillic script, however, was developed later, after the death of Cyril and Methodius, by their disciples and other scholars in the Preslav Literary School and the Ohrid Literary School within the First Bulgarian Empire. This new script was more influenced by the Greek alphabet and was adapted to better suit the phonetic peculiarities of Slavic languages. The Cyrillic script quickly gained popularity over the Glagolitic script due to its simplicity and the influence of the Bulgarian Empire."
Please stop making videos!
That sentence in the video was indeed poorly worded. I am well aware of Klement creating and distributing the Cyrillic Script in the 9th century.

Is there a Byzantine ethnicity? I didn't know that my Greek friend. How about explaining the Cerho and Strahota, the names of Cyrill and Methodius before they became priests, how about explaining that they were from a Bulgarian diplomatic family living in the East Roman empire?
There was no Byzantine Empire either, it was Eastern Roman Empire - a MULTI-ETHNIC state. There are plenty of historical sources that point to the Bulgarian origin of Konstantin-Cyril and Methodius. The alphabet is indeed invented in the Preslav Literary School.

Because ur ancestors was Bulgarians thats why DNA never lies
Your ancestors were Bulgarians and assimilated from the Ottoman Empire politics. The modern turks of Ottoman descent and bulgarians have different DNA.
All Bulgarians were Turks in ancient times. After mixing with Slavs they are not Turks anymore but they are still Turkic.

The Kutrigurs are mentioned frequently in late antique sources from the 6th century, such as in Pseudo-Zacharias (Pseudo-Zacharias or in the Ecclesiastical History of Zacharias of Mytilene), Procopius of Caesarea, Agathius and Menander Protector. Procopius cites a legendary account according to which Kutrigurians and Utigurians originally lived in the same state. Probably in the first half of the 5th century they attacked the Goths west of the Don and pushed them out of Black Sea Scythia. Gruset thinks that the Kutrigurs are remnants of the Huns. Procopius narrates: "In ancient times many Huns, then called CIMMERIANS, inhabited the lands I have already mentioned. They all had one king. Once one of their kings had two sons: one named Utigur and the other named Kutrigur. After the death of their father they divided the power and gave their names to the subject peoples, so that to this day some of them are called Utiguri and others Kutriguri." They occupy the Tanaitic-Meotian (Dono-Azov) steppe zone, the Kutrigurs in the western part and the Utrigurs in the east. The Syriac translation of the Ecclesiastical History of Pseudo-Zacharius the Rhetor (c. 555) in Western Eurasia describes thirteen tribes, wngwr (Unogur) , wgr (Ugri), sbr (Sabir), bwrgr (Burğar , i.e. Bulgarians), kwrtrgr (Kutriğurs), br (probably Abar , i.e. Avar), ksr (Kasr ; Akatziri ?), srwrgwr ( Saragur), dyrmr(* [I]di[r]mar ? < Ιτιμαροι ), b'grsyq (Bagrasik , i.e. Barsili), kwls ( Khalizi ?), bdl ( Abdali ?) and ftlyt (Ephthalite). The first more reliable information about the Kutriguri dates from 482, when they entered into an alliance with Emperor Zeno against the Ostrogoths who attacked the Eastern Roman Empire. Agathia (c. 579-582) writes:...They are all called SCYTHIANS in general and HUNS in particular according to their nation. Thus, some are Koutrigours or Outigours, and others Oultizurs and Bourougounds... Oultizurs and Bourougounds were known down to the time of the Emperor Leo (457-474) and the Romans of that time, and seem to have been powerful... Perhaps they perished, or perhaps they moved to a very distant place." From 493 onwards, the Cutriguri waged repeated wars against the Empire, reaching Illyria, Thessaly and Constantinople. They also took part in the campaigns of the rebellious general Vitalian (514/515 and 518 /520). The contacts between the Empire and the Kutrigurs were multidirectional - in 528 Кanas Gord accepted Christianity and tried to impose it on his compatriots, but without success. In 550, the Gepids asked the Cutriguri for help in fighting against the Lombards. At that time, they came into contact with the Eastern Roman Empire. Although they received annual money from the emperor in Constantinople, they frequently invaded Eastern Roman territory. On the other hand, the Cutriguri also served in the Eastern Roman army, for example a Sinnion fought as an officer under Belisarius (505 - 565). In 551 the Kutrigurs again invaded the territories of the Empire. In 551, an army of 12,000 Cutriguri, led by many commanders, including Hynialon, came from "the west side of the Meotic lake" to help the Gepids, who were at war with the Lombards. Around 551, the Romans came to an agreement with Кanas of the Utigurs, Sandilchus, who with an army of Utigurs and Tetraxites attacked the undefended territory of the Kutrigurs, whose main troops were at that moment on the Balkan Peninsula.and inflicted a heavy defeat on them. The campaign was successful and thousands of Romani held captive were freed and returned to the empire. Part of the defeated Kutriguri were also accepted by the emperor and settled in Thrace. In 558, the Kutrigurian Кanas Zabergan undertook a new march towards Constantinople, but withdrew. Meanwhile, Kanas Sandilh, bribed by Emperor Justinian I, once again raided the lands of the Kutriguri and in the following years the clashes between Kutriguri and Utiguri continued. The Kutrigur and Utigur, called Huns by Procopius, Agathias, and Menander, were of the same stock, dressed in the same way, and had the same language. The names Kutrigur, Bulgar and Hun are used interchangeably and refer in all probability not to separate groups but one group. Menander Protector described the time of the arrival of the Cutriguri in Thrace at the time of Justinian I in 558. Around 558, north of the Caspian Sea, the Avars appeared and formed an alliance with the Eastern Roman Empire against the Alans. Pursued by the Gökturk warlord Istemi, the Avars continued to move westward and 560 subdued the Utigurs. The rest of the Utiguri remained within the Turkic Haganate. (Istemi in the west subjugated the Alans, Khazars and some Utigurs, reaching the Black Sea, but not the Kutrigurs.) A large part of Utigurs moved west with the Avars to Pannonia, and part of their lands were occupied by the Slavic tribe Anti. In 576, an army of Turks and Utiguri besieged and captured Bosporus, but the civil war in the Haganate forced them to abandon the city. In the 7th century, 632, the Uti/Gur tribes, already known as "Uno/Gunduri"', regained their independence and together with the rest of the Kutri/Gurs in Black Sea Scythia, already known under the name "Kotragi", formed the state of Old Great Bulgaria, headed by Patricii, Kanas (Kniaz) U-vigi (from God) Kubrat. Towards the end of the 7th century, the Kutriguri from Pannonia under the leadership of Kanas Kuber migrated to the Balkans. Before that, they rebelled in the Avar Haganate. In their march to Byzantium in 680, they reached Thessaloniki. They concluded a peace agreement with Byzantium and settled where the Keramisian Field (Bitolsko Field) is. At the beginning of the 9th century, these lands were included in the composition of Danube Bulgaria. M. Artamonov accepts that the Utigurs are of mixed Hunno-Ugric origin. "After a period of chaos following Attila's death, dualism again reasserted itself in the succession of Dengitzik and Ernak (west and east respectively). The successor to the Hunnic Empire in the east, or rather probably the continuation, also featured two wings, the Kutrigurs (west) and the Utigurs (east), ruled presumably by Ernak's descendants.
Priscus Paniyski describes the HUNIS as a "gathering of peoples" and claims that the name HUNIS is devoid of ethnic meaning and is a common name for all the subjects of their empire. Some scholars such as Edwin Pouleyblanc and Yuri Zuev link the origin of the Utigurs with the Yueji. The Hun emperor Attila was also Bulgarian and Bulgarians played a major role in his empire. By Prisk Paniyski АTTILA is described as a Scythian of the Royal Scythians and there can be no question that the Bulgarians are some kind of Turks. THE BULGARIANS ARE ANCIENT THRACOCIMMERIANS. You have looked at the matter very superficially without evidence.

I'm not arguing, but i have read a new monograph that argues that the elite class (Dulo, which are Turkic) is ruling the majority of people. The majority is from Sarmatian descent. If you look only from a linguistic point of view, you can say that the Bulgarians are of Turkic origin. This has been the view on the subject for some time. In recent years, tombs have been discovered in and around Ukraine, which can now help to look at them from a Paleoanthropology point of view
@georginedev951 I think you're right, although I must somewhat disagree with the linguistic point of view, as in modern day Bulgarian there is hundreds of words with Iranian origins, while only few turkic words remain. Most likely, truly, the Bulgars were of Sarmatian descent, but the expansion of the Gökturk Khaganate installed leadership over said tribes and had some mixing. When people see the Dulo sign and the names of the leaders, the Tengriist faith and what not, it is easy to label the Bulgars as turkic steppe nomads, but it is way more nuanced than that.
I would say Scythian-Sarmatian origin ascribing the same meaning to it. Where Asparuh initially settled prior to crossing the Danube was earlier known as Scythia Minor.

All Asian except DULO DINASTY .THE DULO symbol IYI you can find in many countries in Central Asia and in Turkey. But the oldest one is in Bulgaria in Balkans. 8,000 years old. This is the symbol of GODES MATHER . Is possible to have much older in Cappadocia, Turkey. Because this is the place where first farmers come to Balkans and mixed with hunters. If you looking top 10 oldest city in Europe 8 are in Balkans.
@@marinvalkov9755 My family surname is Bulgarian(I am Hungarian by birth). The Surname itself was carried by the khans/kings of Bulgaria. The Bolghar (from which Bulgarians came from) peoples were Turkic in origin, they were Asiatic. The symbol of my family is a Tamga or seal synonymous with Turks. Some of what you say I know to be true. I have never heard or found in research that my family's dynasty was older than the Yamato's in Japan. As far back as I could go concretely was to my ancestor Kubrat who may or may not have been a part of the Western Turkic Khaganate. The only thing for certain is that he founded the first Bulgarian State in what is now Ukraine.

I have made this video as nuanced and balanced as possible, and hope that you guys and gals enjoy both the information that was given as well as my style. It took a lot of time to recreate some of these historical people and scenes. I tried to include as much historical imagery as possible, but as you might know, there is little content available. Almost all of the paintings that are supposed to depict the ancient Bulgars were made centuries later, anyway. Therefore, I oriented myself on the text descriptions about the Bulgars from ancient sources, but also on the clothing, hairstyles etc. of other steppe peoples of the Ponto-Caspian steppe.
The Volga Bulgars were mentioned twice in the video. Maybe it would be a good idea to check out their history in the future. What do you think?
History of Volga Bulgaria up to the Mongol invasion would be good, a thumbnail or title highlighting the fact that they were the first Turkic tribe to convert to Islam would also attract viewers
The name of the Khan is Asparuh not Asparu
@@ralitzanikolova9027 yes, that’s how it was written in the video. The subtitles were automatically generated and got it wrong.
Historians believe that the ancient Bulgarians spoke a language that is from a different group compared to today's Bulgarian. Some researchers attribute the speech of our ancestors to the Turkic languages, and others to the Iranian ones. None of the two groups of specialists explain the mystery: Why is there not a single Turkic or Iranian word in the entire Old Bulgarian equestrian terminology?
Neither кон - horse nor кобила, жребец, седло, юзда, стреме, лък, тулъ (колчан), стрела, тетива, острие, яздя, ездач - mare, stallion, saddle, bridle, stirrup, bow, quiver, arrow, string, blade, ride, rider, etc. do not belong to the Turkic or Iranian linguistic wealth. On the other hand, in the Thracian onomastics we find Kone, Kobilatus, tula-, Uzdika, Asdul, Ezdikaya, etc., but this apparently does not affect anyone. It is as if there is a taboo that any connection between the old Bulgarians and the local Balkan population should be avoided. Even if we did not have the Thracian words indicating that the Bulgarian equestrian terminology is of Balkan origin, the scholars were well aware of what a serious problem the complete lack of Iranian or Turkic terms was, and of course this was not shared neither with the students or with the general public .
I hope you to continue making videos about the Bulgars as well other Turkic Peoples,like Avars Magyars,Pechnegs,Cumans etc. My congrats ,from Portugal,for your work.
Ask yourself if it is possible for a newly created country to be called Old Great Bulgaria by the Roman chronographs and you will understand that the whole video is one big lie.

Great video. We are now left with the enigma of Sarmathians. Is that the beginning of what latter became Slavs? Question open, what happened to the original culture and language of the Schitians? What is diferent between Sarmats and Schitians besides geographic designation? Is it possible that Sarmats picked up turkic language after falling under Gokturks and brought it back to Europe? ,or kept their culture, language, and traditions. Is it possible that in the Gokturkic federation all spoke just turkic? Did people included in their confederation kept their original language and custom and when all fell appart they took independence? And also what happened to the Tracian and Gaeto-Dacian culture and language n the Balkans? How is it possible to have. 7 Slavic tribes when first mentioned in 17 Century by Russian Court. So, Trachians just evaporated? Impossible.The story of tangrism is a mixed bag, and if present, they melted away fast when they met the tracian helenised believes in the Balkans. Did Sarmats, Dachians, and Gaeti speak Trachian language or offshoot of it? How did that influence the nation creation when turks arrived later? Why did people of Sarmatogeteusa speak Dachian and not Turkic?There is still lots of grey. One thing is certain there were no 7 Slavic tribes in the Balkans as Russian inperial theory implied. If people living there and Asparuh's people spoke, the same or similar language was only natural to come south of the river. Byzantium had no choice. Centuries of pulling resources and man power for Rome or Byzantium were mostly over. That explains "sudden" rise. It has been said now that Bulgarians were present in the Balkans in the 4th and 5th century by Byzantine sources. That if true will contradict Slavic and Turkic narratives upside down. Is has been written in the old texts but chosen to be overlooked. Goes back to the Seapeople for which of course it has been said again "we can not explain were they come from?. From across the pond!

Interesting video. When I studied Bulgarian history at school, it was written that Bulgarians came from Iran in Eastern Europe. And that Iran is the ancestral homeland of Bulgarians or somewhere there. But there is no 100% evidence if we were Turks, but it is possible. And after the creation of Bulgaria, we mixed with Slavs and Thracians. And we adopt the Slavic script and language

Those known as "Bulgars" or "Proto-Bulgarians", were presented as Turkic or Iranian up to 2011, but we all knew this was politically made propaganda in the communist times (based on 19th century Austro-Hungarian anti-scientific ideas, when we were under Ottoman Yoke). It was officially thrown out of the historical diaspora as an untenable thesis recognized as politically made and untrue. This was done not only with historical analysis of data, but also through large-scale genetic studies performed in Bulgaria, in which samples were tested from more than 13 acropolises of Proto-Bulgarians and it was found that they carry an entirely WESTERN Eurasian gene pool, only from South and Southeastern Europe and no Asian types in their content.
This completely and surely proved that the Proto-Bulgarians or Bulgars are an old Eastern European race, which is the same as the one that lived in Eastern Europe thousands of years ago, especially when they compared the DNA probes with those of Ian Mathieson of 2018, from the Balkans.
There are still some scholars that are followers of the old political propaganda but it was disproven officialy !!!
All of the genetical data taken from more than 100+ graves of Proto-Bulgarians were tested and proven that they were 100% european and had 0% turkic or iranian composition.
It is funny because even in the comunist times when there was no difference between ideology and science, there were honest scientist who were fighting with the powers of that time.
In 1938 and 1959 the results of large-scale anthropological research were published, which completely shattered the prevailing at that time theory of the origin of the old Bulgarians. Contrary to other academics and associate professors, the data show quite clearly that the hitherto generally accepted views on the origin of the Bulgarian people are wrong and must be reconsidered. Here are the words of Dr. Popov, an anthropologist from BAS:
"From the analysis of the anthropometric studies of the Bulgarian people it stands out clearly - I allow myself to repeat once again that all the mentioned data speak categorically and clearly that the racial mixtures that are part of our people belong to the known European races."
-M. Popov, The Bulgarian people between the European races and peoples, Court Printing House, Sofia, 1938, p.111.
Regarding blood tests, Dr. Popov says the following:
"All this shows how far we are in our blood type from Asian nations." - p.122.
Twenty years later, he organized a new, more detailed study, the result of which was:
“The anthropological types that are part of the modern Bulgarian people belong entirely to the European race. Among these anthropological types, according to the detailed data from our research, the Pontic or Black Sea type occupies the first place in terms of distribution. ”
- M. Popov, Anthropology of the Bulgarian people, volume I, Physical appearance of the Bulgarians, BAS, Sofia, 1959, p.260. "
Genetics from our time says:
"Ancient (proto-) Bulgarians have long been thought to as a Turkic population. However, evidence found in the past three decades show that this is not the case. Until now, this evidence does not include ancient mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) analysis. In order to fill this void, we have collected human remains from the VIII-X century AD located in three necropolises in Bulgaria: Nojarevo (Silistra region) and Monastery of Mostich (Shumen region), both in Northeast Bulgaria and Tuhovishte (Satovcha region) in Southwest Bulgaria. The phylogenetic analysis of 13 ancient DNA samples (extracted from teeth) identified 12 independent haplotypes, which we further classified into mtDNA haplogroups found in present-day European and Western Eurasian populations. Our results suggest a Western Eurasian matrilineal origin for proto-Bulgarians as well as a genetic similarity between proto- and modern Bulgarians. Our future work will provide additional data which will further clarify proto-Bulgarian origins; thereby adding new clues to current understanding of European genetic evolution.""
" It should be noted, however, that a well-known study worked with mtDNA from the remains of people considered undoubtedly "Proto-Bulgarians" - Mitochondrial DNA Suggests a Western Eurasian Origin for Ancient (Proto-) Bulgarians. The results are that 13 individuals belong to to 10 mtDNA haplogroups: H, H1, H5, H13, HV1, J, J1, T, T2 and U3.
They are all found among individuals living in southeastern Europe several millennia ago, published by Mathieson et al. Therefore, 100% of the surveyed 13 "Proto-Bulgarians" have a maternal origin similar to those who lived in our lands thousands of years ago. "
Neither the "Iranian" nor the "Turkic" theories have meaningful evidentiary baggage.
Both rely only on linguistic equilibristics and speculation. Both have no confirmation of either archeology or historical records. And of course of anthropology and genetics too...
The only meaningful theory is the autochthonous one, supported by dozens of sources, DNA research and many other related scientific studies. Genetics proves that Bulgarians are a Balkan nation indistinguishable from their neighbors. If the Bulgarians were Iranians, Turco-Tatars or any Asians, there would be an Asian reception in their genes. This is not observed and this strongly supports the local origin of the Bulgarians.
Most of the supporters of this channel are Turks from the country Turkie so I leave the the conclusion to you all :) ...
Cope harder)))
if we judge by this theory, the Bulgarians came from there and you count us among the Asian nations. This migration took place around 1400-1500 years ago. and I ask myself the following. If this is true, why don't we have people in Bulgaria who look like Asians, to what extent the gene can be modified to successfully hide for 1500 years the form of the body, the head, the hair, the typical Asian eyes.
You say cope harder but he literally showed so much evidence and data. There isn’t a single study which shows the proto Bulgar genetics were East Asian.
I have looked through many studies on proto Bulgar genetics most of which aren’t made by Bulgarians but instead unbiased universes and they still say there East Asian genetics are not present.
I mean i don’t understand? Clearly you aren’t interested in the truth and are just coping trying to prove they are Turkic since you are one yourself. But bulgars have nothing to do with your history just accept it. Are you the type of brainlet who thinks it’s true because someone on Wikipedia wrote so? Do actual research, you can’t argue with data

Further evidence linking the Balkan Bulgar state to Turkic cultural traditions was the nature of the Bulgars' primary settlement at Pliska, with its resemblance to a steppe encampment, and a Bulgar tradition of stone relief carvings and inscriptions found scattered throughout the eastern Danubian Plain.
P. Hupchick, D., 2017. The Bulgarian-Byzantine Wars for Early Medieval Balkan Hegemony. Cham: Springer International Publishing
Bulgaria at this time had acquired some traits typical of a barbarian state, because the bellicose tribe of the Bulgars had imported the Turkic traditions of the great steppe into the Balkans.

According to Neparáczki: "From all recent and archaic populations tested the Volga Tatars show the smallest genetic distance to the entire Conqueror population" and "a direct genetic relation of the Conquerors to Onogur-Bulgar ancestors of these groups is very feasible."
I will tell you something. You never will learn the truth from European, Russian, the Fucken Anglo-Saxons and Jewish. Never. And don't tell me who's Bulgars.
There is no such thing as Turkic genetic background as Turkic is a cultural and linguistic term.
Huns /bulgars (they are the same) are genetically proven to be sarmatians(indo-european/indo-iranian ancestry )by the newest scientific researches, despite the turkic influence on them. They also show that nowadays bulgarians still carry big DNA ancestry from them.

Greetings from Bulgaria. Interesting theories. Modern Bulgarians have Slavic, Bulgarian, but let's not forget the ancient Thracian blood.
There is no thracian blood apart through the byzantine line🙂
@@plamenpetrov3806😂😂😂😂
Bulgarians look nothing like Slavic people. Bulgarians look entirely Mediterranean and usually have olive skin. Genetically Bulgarians are 60% Mediterranean. And have been shown to be genetically related to the Thracians.
Now just draw your own conclusions; if we are zero% Thracian then why are we Mediterranean race? Slavs are not Mediterranean. Is the Mediterranean dna Bulgar? Are you claiming Bulgarians are 60% Bulgar? And where is the proof bulgars were Mediterranean?
I think it’s very obvious. Herodotus also said the Thracians were as numerous as the Indians, if you look at the geographically Thracian map it makes sense since dacians also are Thracian.
Either way, tell me how such a huge population gets wiped out or genocided without having mixed with other populations? Because if they mixed youd have mostly Thracians genes. The slavs who came were lees numerous than the Thracians
Because modern bulgarians are not related to Old Great Bulgaria, their name is still turkic though

I agree this history is true thay came to the Balkans
I was fascinated by your video. I don't know if you use some AI to depict but it's done mostly great. I do have one little disagree on the story though. First please have in mind that I use the terms "Bulgarians" and "Bulgars"' as one because in our modern Bulgarian language we do not separate ourselves from the ancient or the medieval Bulgars. So now... It is not true that the Bulgarians were few in number and the Slavs melted them down. It has not been proven that the Bulgarian elite believed in Tangra /Tengri/. On the contrary, according to some historians, the first Bulgarian khans were Christians. The accounts of the ancient chroniclers are also very different from the official Bulgarian history (as of 2007). The truth is that modern historians do not really know what the proto-Bulgarians /the Bulgars/ were like. In the scientific literature, there are currently 17 hypotheses about the origin of the Bulgarians, and none of them is sufficiently convincing. According to the official history, the Bulgarians were a small horde of about 10,000 people and came at the head of Khan Asparuh, but the truth is that tens of thousands of Bulgarians settled in the lands of today's Bulgaria centuries before Asparuh. Emperor Xenon himself called the Bulgarians already in the 5th century as allies against the Ostrogoths, who attacked and plundered the Roman province of Thrace. Thus the Bulgarians began to settle in Illyria and Thrace. Under Emperor Justinian, in the middle of the 6th century, large masses of Bulgarians began to permanently settle south of the Danube river. About the year 680, when Khan Asparuh fought the battle of Ongal, no modern historian or commentator asks whether it was possible for 10,000 men to defeat an army of 80,000 Romans, which had just before defeated the Arabs, and before that had defeated the Persians and in the Middle Ages, when the most important factor in victory was the number of soldiers. These data provide a basis for claiming that the Bulgarian army defended a nation of at least 1 - 1.5 million people. It was this that provoked the Emperor to undertake such a massive military campaign on land and water. In principle, the Eastern Roman Empire would not take such actions with an army of sixty thousand and a navy of twenty thousand against a small tribe of 10,000 people. If the Roman army was like that, then the Bulgarian army was at least sixty to eighty thousand people. Historians also have to take into account that this was not the only Bulgarian army, because Khan Asparuh had to separate troops to guard the border with the Avars in the northwest and another army to defend against the Khazars in the northeast, who had previously conquered the state of Old Great Bulgaria /his brother Batbayan/. This means that Asparuh had over 100 - 120 thousand horsemen in his army.
So that's what I wanted to share. Thanks for the good work on this video. It's great.
I see the Bulgarian Aryanist movement found this video and heavily disagrees with it. However, the Turkic theory was never disputed despite what the Aryanist movement thinks. Despite this, the Aryanist movement is not entirely wrong either. "Turkic" is not a racial-taxonomic categorization, but a linguistic and cultural one. For example, modern Turks in Turkey have very little in common racially with Turkic nations such as Kazakhstan or Kyrgyzstan. Turks are counted as Turkic because of their cultural and linguistic traits. Likewise, it is entirely possible and even probable that the Bulgar tribe was racially European, i.e. white or Aryan (whichever term you prefer), by the time it arrived on the Balkans, despite being culturally and linguistically Turkic.

@@OG-ge8nu Who are the ottomans? The ottomans are the kayı tribe which is related to the Dulo which is related to the bulgars who were ruled by Kubrat who is from the Dulo family. The kayı of which Osman was the bey are a branch albeit distant of the Dulo family which is evident by having the same tanga so it’s obvious and more than obvious that the Ottoman empire was in fact a bulgar empire but unfortunately it was Islamic and was a halifat and got a lot of Arabic influence to the point of losing its Turkic identity and language and thank God for Atatürk, also Bulgar by the way who restored the Turkic identity and language to a large extent but there are still about 80% of Arabic words in the modern Turkish language thanks to the backward and regressive Arabic religion of Islam which is actually only suitable for Arabs and very detrimental for the Turkic people in general.
Like Sir Steven Runsiman wrote in hie book. The Bulgarians were invaders who managed to build a nation at the gates of the most powerful empire in the Christian domain.
Not Tatars they are Aryans
Bulgars separate 3 main group - one of them move to the Europe - lost language and etnical identity and became Bulgarians, other stay at motherland and defeat by Mongol empire and mixed with Kipchak turks which was big part of mongol army and lost his name and become Khazan Tatars. Other group moce to the Caucases and meet other Turks(Karachays) and became part of Circasians and save etnicity, language but still little nation by the name Balkars.

⬛ 3 Fouche de Chartres, French priest, description of the First Crusade 1096: "From here they went through the lands of the Bulgarians, who are called Thracians"
⬛ 4. Ioan Tsetsas, "Hiliads": "The Paeonians are Bulgarians".
⬛ 5. Homatian, describing the life of Kliment Ohridski, explains - "This great father of ours and beacon of Bulgaria was a descendant of the European Mizis, whom the people usually know as Bulgarians."
⬛ 6. Cassiodorus (6th century, Roman historian) writes that the Bulgarians are an old Mysian or Illyrian people.
⬛ 7. Enodius of Titius (473-524, bishop, court historian of the Gothic king Theodoric) also states that the Bulgarians are an old Mysian or Illyrian people.
⬛ 8. Leo the Deacon (Byzantine historian from the 10th century) persistently calls the Bulgarians Mizis. For the Byzantines, the words Mizis, Scythians and Bulgarians meant the same thing, they used them as synonyms.
⬛ 9. The Byzantine chroniclers Ioan Skilitsa and Georgi Kedrin, reporting on the defeat of the Byzantines at the Acheloi River in 917 by King Simeon, maliciously write: "not the Bulgarian, but Simeon the Mysian defeated the Roman army with his characteristic Scythian madness". Skilitsa calls Simeon a Mizian, because the Bulgarians are Mizians, as he is. And another important thing - by attributing to Tsar Simeon the "Scythian madness", the Thracians and the Scythians are equated in the face of the Bulgarian people.
⬛ 10. Theophanes and John of Antioch, when they talk about the Bulgarians in the 5th century, use the expression "those called Bulgarians" - because Greek and Latin chronographers and chroniclers used another name - "Mizi".
⬛ 11. Ioan Malala writes: "Arrived with Atreides and Samsi Achilles with his own army, once called Myrmidons, but now Bulgarians, 3000 people". This information is also reflected in the Old Bulgarian translation of the "Iliad", made at the time of Tsar Simeon the Great at the Preslav Literary School.

⬛ 13 Ioan Tsetsas "And the peons are Bulgarians. Do not believe fools, to think that peons are different from them."
The Bulgari where invited into the Roman by the emperor this proved to be a great mistake
You should mention that Bulgars are not mongolic, but european people. Those pictures of yours show otherwise. The genome of the modern Bulgarians show 45% thracian and 45% bulgar genes. The rest is Slavic. And for the last - Bulgarian academy of science claims that Bulgars were not turkic but Indo-European tribe. The horde of Asparuh that settled in the Danubean delta is estimated to be between 200 and 300 thousand people.
Complete nonsense. Thеse ridiculous theories were written in the 19th century. There is not a single Roman document that describes the arrival of Bulgarians from Asia. On the contrary, Bulgaria has always been here in Thrace.
CHAPTER LXXXIX
72. And Vitalian, whom we have just mentioned, raised a revolt against the emperor Anastasius, and seized Thrace and Scythia 206 and Mysia, and mustered a numerous army. 73. And the emperor sent against him a general named Hypatius. And when they fought together, he was vanquished by Vitalian and taken prisoner. And on the payment of a large ransom he was set free. 74. But immediately on his return to the emperor, the latter removed him from his command, and appointed in his room another general, named Cyril, of the province of Illyria. 75. And he also gave battle to Vitalian, and there was great slaughter on both sides. Cyril the general retired into the city named Odyssus, and stayed there while Vitalian withdrew into the province of Bulgaria.

The contemporary Turks are wannabe Kurds and Armenians. There is nothing Ottoman in you.
Historians believe that the ancient Bulgarians spoke a language that is from a different group compared to today's Bulgarian. Some researchers attribute the speech of our ancestors to the Turkic languages, and others to the Iranian ones. None of the two groups of specialists explain the mystery: Why is there not a single Turkic or Iranian word in the entire Old Bulgarian equestrian terminology?
Neither кон - horse nor кобила, жребец, седло, юзда, стреме, лък, тулъ (колчан), стрела, тетива, острие, яздя, ездач - mare, stallion, saddle, bridle, stirrup, bow, quiver, arrow, string, blade, ride, rider, etc. do not belong to the Turkic or Iranian linguistic wealth. On the other hand, in the Thracian onomastics we find Kone, Kobilatus, tula-, Uzdika, Asdul, Ezdikaya, etc., but this apparently does not affect anyone. It is as if there is a taboo that any connection between the old Bulgarians and the local Balkan population should be avoided. Even if we did not have the Thracian words indicating that the Bulgarian equestrian terminology is of Balkan origin, the scholars were well aware of what a serious problem the complete lack of Iranian or Turkic terms was, and of course this was not shared neither with the students or with the general public .
BRAVO YOVCHO ! All logical and correct...The Thachian link and other okd balcanic links are the right paths....and culturaly and lynguisticaly - the Thrachian words that you have mentiined are ethimogicaly and linguusticaly very close to Slavic which proves that ancient Slavic and old Helm or balkanic (Thracian, Dacian,Dardanian, Mesian, Dalmatian, Ilyrian, Macedonian) - are essentialy - the same - One People, many tribes. And these were tve origins of our Bulgarian brotbers as well. Of course, there are Turcic elements as:w3ll, especially tbe name Blgars, Bulgars, Bugars, but itbis related to o e leadi g group of wariors from Bulgar Khagabat who invaded tbe lands in what became Bulgaria and since being the rulling class at the begining at least - they left the name fir tge newly formed country and probably the first rulli g Dinasty....but that was intermixed and melted very soon in the ocean of Slavonic and other balkanic people living on that teritorry.
In fact there are historians who believe they were both Turkic and Iranian speakers. Some claim the ruling elite was Turkic, other Iranian, or both. But they surely were ruled by the Gokturks, which in itself explains a lot of the Turkic influence.

There are byzantine documents that Kubrat spent 10 years in Magnaur schools in Constantinople and got baptized there. The calvary of Emperor Justinian's general Belisarius was mostly from Bulgarian horsemen. His youngest son Alcek, that was christian took 300k bulgars and got settled in Italy around Vesuvius region. This is the reason people from modern day Bulgaria and Italy turned down to be very close genetically, also because a lot of thracians were exported to Rome as slaves and the modern day Bulgaria was mix of bulgars and Slavs AND thracians. Funny how in less than 100 year difference roman documents changed the seven thracian tribes to the seven Slavic tribes. Tangra and Perun and Zeus and Thor are kind of the same god, a thunder deity.
As a Pomak-Turk from Bulgaria, i can see the roots of the Turkic era in our family traditions and beliefs from Tengrism in every aspect.
Pomak brides look like the Last Queen of Mongolia (TARTARIA) Queen Genepil and we have some really weird ceremonies and rituals but do it with a mix of Islam and Tengrism together.
The sources say; Pomaks converted from Christianity to Islam with the Ottomans but this isn’t true at all, because we all fled to the mountains and rivers during Christianization that we could live our beliefs and a lot of the Pomaks are still living there.
With the Ottomans we saw similarities in beliefs (Tengrism) and with time we also accepted Islam but still with Tengrism all together what Ottomans used to practice and modern Türkiye Turks practice until to this day. (The Islam of the Arabic nations are Sharia (Qoran) based) but we have beliefs like Mausoleum, Balbals (Kurgan Statues), the number 40 (kırk).

I have reason to believe that the Bulgars are more nuanced than what is described. The expansion of the Huns and then the Gökturk Khanate crossed paths with the local population (of Sarmatian descent) present in the North Caucasus at the time. Short note on the Sarmatians, they were nomads with Iranian origins who were in the region for many centuries up until that point. In the modern Bulgarian language there are hundreds upon hundreds of words that remain, that are not slavic and come from Iranian origins, some of which are most common being ofcourse 'Kuche' (dog) and 'Kushta' (house), which would be 'Pes' and 'Dom' in the slavic tongue. An old bulgarian historical view is that the Bulgars were an ancient iranic people group that migrated from the 'Bulhara' mountains and settled in the North Caucasus and Dniepr areas. They might have not been even known as Bulgars during those times and were just a part of the Sarmatian tribes. The name 'Bulgars' could have come in as a term after the takeover of the Huns, then Gökturk Khanates as turkic people moved into the area, intertwined and leaders from said states became the heads of these tribes. If you take the names of the leaders, 'Dulo' clan name, the Tengriist faith and the symbol of the state, it is easy to label the Bulgars as turkic steppe nomads, while the reality could very well be although some were turkic steppe nomads, not everyone that made up their ethno-genesis was. It would simply not explain why the Bulgarian language is so filled with iranic origin words while only few remain of turkic origin, taking into consideration the 500 years of Ottoman rule over Danubian Bulgaria. As is known, migrations do not fully wipe out cultures and peoples, they just intertwine, seen alone as the makeup of the Bulgarians is Bulgars, Slavs, and other peoples native to the Balkan area, Thracians, Greeks etc. Some sources I've read mention that the free religious beliefs of the Bulgars stem from Zoroastrian beliefs. In the Alan language, what is described as a 'person beyond the mountains' (when the Alans settled in the Caucasus) was the name of the bulgars as a tribe and were possible seen as people with similiar origins. What is known though is that the Bulgars fought alongside Attila, some settled in Pannonia, others became 'Foederati' of the Byzentine Empire, many became mercenaries and were used in Belisarius' campaigns. They do have a rich history on their own.
That is why I believe the Bulgars were an amalagamation of primarily Sarmatians, secondarily Turkic peoples with Turkic leadership.
I fully agree with ur opinion,even greek chroniclers called Bulgarians as a Scythians and i can tell u another old word from our language we still used its "Dare" which it means river and its an iranic word true evidence of the past its not accidentally for sure !!
It is normal to see Iranian origin words in the bulgarian language. There are many turkish words from Iranian origin, too.After all, the Persian Empire was very influential and had a left impact to the region . However, this does not make the bulgars Iranians
