Merkit
The Merkit ((モンゴル語:Мэргид), lit. ''"skillful/wise ones"'') was one of the five major tribal confederations (''khanlig'') of the Mongols in the 12th century Mongolian Plateau.
The Merkits lived in the basins of the Selenga and lower Orkhon River (modern south Buryatia and Selenge Province).〔History of Mongolia, Volume II, 2003〕 After a struggle that took over two decades, they were defeated in 1200 and incorporated into the Mongol Empire formed by Genghis Khan.
== Etymology ==
The word ''Merged'' (мэргэд) is a plural form derived from the Mongolian word ''mergen'' (мэргэн), the latter of which means both "wise" as in smart and "skillful marksperson" as in adept in the use of bow and arrow. The word is also used in many phrases in which it connotes magic, oracles, divination, augury, or religious power. Note that the Mongolian language does not make a clear morphological or grammatical distinction between nouns and adjectives, so ''mergen'' may mean "a sage, a wise one" just as much as "wise" or "skillful, adept" just as much as "a master, a skillful marksperson." ''Merged'' becomes people as in "wise ones" or "skillful markspeople." But in the general sense, ''mergen'' usually denotes someone who is skillful and wise in their affairs.
