Baghatur (Mongolian: ''Baghatur/Ba'atur'' (Modern Mongolian: Баатар ''Baatar''), Turkish: Bağatur/Batur/Bahadır, Russian: Bogatyr) is a historical Turco-Mongol honorific title,〔Ed. Herbert Franke and others - ''The Cambridge History of China'': Volume 6, Alien Regimes and Border States, 710-1368, p.567〕 in origin a term for "hero" or "valiant warrior". The Papal envoy Plano Carpini compared the title with the equivalent of European Knighthood.〔James Chambers ''The Devil's horsemen: the Mongol invasion of Europe'', p.107〕 The etymology of this word is uncertain, although the first syllable is very likely the Iranian title word *bag "god, lord". The term was first used by the steppe peoples to the north and west (Mongolia) of China as early as the 7th century as evidenced in Sui dynasty records.〔C. Fleischer, ''"Bahādor"'', in ''Encyclopædia Iranica''〕〔Grousset 194.〕 It is attested for the Göktürk Khanate in the 8th century, and among the Bulgars of the First Bulgarian Empire in the 9th century. The word was common among the Mongols and became especially widespread, as an honorific title, in Genghis Khan's Mongol Empire in the 13th century; the title persisted in its successor-states, and later came to be adopted also as a regnal title in the Ilkhanate, in Timurid dynasties etc. The word was also introduced into many non-Turkic languages as a result of the Turco-Mongol conquests, and now exists in different forms such as , , Polish ''Bohater'' (meaning "hero"), (meaning "brave"), Persian ''Bahador'', Georgian ''Bagatur'', and Hindi ''Bahadur''. It is also preserved in the modern Turkic and Mongol languages as Turkish ''Batur/Bahadır'', Tatar and Kazakh ''Батыр (Batyr)'', Uzbek ''Batyr'' and Mongolian ''Baatar'' (as in Ulaanbaatar). The concept of the Baghatur has its roots in Turco-Mongolian folklore. Like the Bogatyrs of Russian myth, Baghaturs were heroes of extraordinary courage, fearlessness, and decisiveness, often portrayed as being descended from heaven and capable of performing extraordinary deeds. Baghatur was the heroic ideal Turco-Mongolian warriors strove to live up to, hence its use as a military honorific of glory. __NOTOC__ ==List of individuals with this title== The term Baghatur and its variants – Bahadur, Bagatur, or Baghadur, was adopted by the following historical individuals: * Modu, the founding chanyu of the Xiongnu empire. *Baghatur Khagan, Khagan of the Khazars, c. 760. *Bagatur Bagaina Sevar, 9th century commander in Bulgaria * Yesugei, the father of Genghis Khan, is called Yesugei Baghatur *The Mongol general Subutai is referred to in the ''Secret History of the Mongols'' as ''baghatur''. *Ilkhan Abu Sa'id Bahadur Khan took the title Ba'atur after his name for his victory over the rebellion of the Mongol Keraits in Iran.〔http://www.iranicaonline.org/articles/abu-said-bahador-khan〕 *Bayan of the Merkid, the Grand councillor of the Yuan dynasty, was awarded Baghatur for his merit during the Ogedeid-Yuan conflict.〔Ed.
