Qibi tribe
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Qibi tribe (Chinese: 契苾 ~ 契弊; Middle Chinese: *kʲiei-pɪ̯et;[1] Saka: Kāribari[2]) was a Turkic tribe and a part of Tiele confederation, then Toquz Oghuz and later Uyghur Khaganate. Most famous member of the tribe was Qibi Heli.
According to the epigraphy of Qibi Song (契苾嵩), a Tiele general in the service of the Tang dynasty (730), the origins of the Qibi can be traced to the Khangai Mountains prior to their presence in the Bogda Mountains during the 6th century. They were related to the Jiepi (解批) of Gaoche, who were situated east of the Fufuluo.[3] In early Tang period, they lived in Yingsuo Prefecture (modern Yanqi 焉耆, Xinjiang).[4] The Qibi were dispersed shortly after the defeat of chief Geleng (哥楞). In the east they were put under the rule of a tudun (吐屯) named Ashina Hubo (阿史那斛勃), who became known as the Chebi Khagan. After 632, they were located to Yuxi Prefecture (榆溪).
