Butaul (also spelled ''Buta-ul'', with possible meaning "the son of Buta"〔(Acta linguistica Academiae Scientiarum Hungaricae, Том 21, Magyar Tudományos Akadémia, 1971, page 37. )〕) is a name mentioned in an inscription contained in a treasure trove of gold artifacts found in 1799 in Groß Sankt Nikolaus (Romanian: Sânnicolau Mare) in northern Banat (then under administration of Habsburg Monarchy, today in Timiş County in western Romania). According to various interpretations of the inscription, Butaul was an ''župan'',〔(From Daēnā to Dîn: Religion, Kultur und Sprache in der iranischen Welt ; Festschrift für Philip Kreyenbroek zum 60. Geburtstag, Christine Allison, Anke Joisten-Pruschke, Antje Wendtland, Otto Harrassowitz Verlag, 2009, page 5. )〕 a sort of local chieftain. ==The inscription== (詳細はBuyla are names preserved by an inscription on one of the vessels found in the hoard. The inscription is written in the Greek alphabet and reads: :BOYHΛA.ZOAΠAN.TECH.ΔYΓΕTOIΓH.BOYTAOYΛ.ZΩAΠAN.TAΓPOΓH.HTZIΓH.TAICH ::(Transliteration: ''bouēla zoapan tesē dygetoigé boutaoul zōapan tagrogē ētzigē taisē'').〔Francis Dvornik, "Deux inscriptions gréco-bulgares de Philippes", ''Bulletin de correspondance hellénique'', 1928 Vol. 52 no. 52, pp. 125-147 (), accessed Oct. 10, 2011〕 The language of the inscription is unknown. While there is no consensus as to the meaning of the inscription, there is general agreement that Buta-ul and Buyla are personal names from a Turkic language, and that both are identified as holding the title of ''župan''. Other very short inscriptions found on the artifacts there are in a runiform script and also likely to be in a Turkic language, but these are very brief and have not been deciphered.〔András Róna-Tas, ''Hungarians and Europe in the early Middle Ages'' (Central European University Press, 1999; ISBN 963-9116-48-3), pp. (131-132 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Butaul」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
