Qian/Kian and Nekuz or Bo'rte Chi'na? Who is the real earliest ancestor of Genghis Khan

 

Episode 2. Qian/Kian and Nekuz, or Bo’rte Chi’na ? Who is the real earliest ancestor of Genghis Khan/Chinggiz Khan?

In verse 1 of <The Secret History of Mongols>, which is usually considered the earliest librarian about the ancestors of the Genghis Khan/Chinggiz Khan, "The root of the Genghis Khan/Chinggiz Khan is the Burte Chino /Bo'rte Chi'na, which was born from the high sky by destiny. He crossed the Tenghis water with Go’a Maral and came from the spring of Onomul River, Vorkan Khaldun, to give birth to Batachigan."

The other is <Tarikh-e Monghul,集史History of Mongol,1387>by Rashid Aldin Fadle Allah . One thing to note about the  ancestors of Genghis Khan/Chinggiz Khan of<Tarikh-e Monghul,集史> is "All Mongolians are descendants of two men who went to Ergene Qu'n," and "there was an important leader among the group that came out...It was Burte Cina/Bo'rte Chi'na".

It should be noted here that "the two men who went to Ergene Qu'n (Arkana Kuhn) earlier than Bo'rte Chi'na. The<Tarikh-e Monghul,集史History of Mongol,1387>, written by Rashid Urdin, is as follows. "According to the accounts of the Turkic, all Mongolian clans are descendants of two men who went to "Ergene Qu'n/Arkana Kuhn," according to reliable historians. Among the group that emerged from there was an important leader who was a leader of several tribes and had the name Bo'rte Chi'na.  Dobun Bayan her husband, Ala'n Qo'a'n and some tribesmen came from him, and he had many wives and children. His first wife was Qoi Maral."

Here, the two librarians record differently about the first ancestors of Genghis Khan/Chinggiz Khan.

While <the Secret History of Mongols> said to have the roots of Genghis Khan /Chinggiz Khan as Bor'te Chi'na, <Tarikh-e Monghul,集史History of Mongol,1387>said that  "All Mongolian tribes are descendants of two men who went to Ergene Qu'n," and "there was an important leader among the group that came out... It was Bo'rte Chi'na."

This Borte Chi'na  was the ancestor of Ala'n Qo'a the teenager female ancestor Genghis Khan in <the Secret History of Mongols>  and some tribes, who are now called "the mother of all Mongols."
Then, before the birth of "all Mongolian tribes," and before "Genghis Khan's Root Bo'rte Chi'na," there were "two men." They went to a province called "Ergene Qu'n," where "Bo'rte Chi'na." came from the descendants of one of the two men.
Rashid's<Tarikh-e Monghul,
集史History of Mongol,1387>  fortunately talks about "Nekuz and Kiyan/Qian," the legendary ancestors of Genghis Khan's Mongolian race, and their descendants.

"Once upon a time the Mongol tribes engaged in hostility and confrontation with other Turkic tribes, which turned into war. According to credible accounts, no one survived except for two men and two women, however many other tribes had won victory over the Mongols. The two families fled to the rugged terrain out of fear of their enemies, all around them mountains and forests, with no path in any direction except for a narrow and rugged road that was extremely difficult to pass through. In the middle of the mountain was a beautiful meadow rich in pasture, named Ergene Kuhn (Arkana' Qun).

The ‘Kuhn’ means gorge, and ‘Ergene' is the steep peak, and so the Ergene Kuhn means the steep cliffs mountain. In Persian, 'Arkana' is the 'wall', or 'kamar-e saddle' the belt of steep wall.
In Mongolia, 'Qi'an' is a steep, fast, and violent torrent that flows down from a mountain to the ground. Qi'an gave him this name because he was a very brave man. Qi'ayt is the plural form of Qi'an, and his descendants close to him were called Qi'ayt tribes in the old days. For reference, there is the high steep mountain called the BaekDoo Mountain(white=snown head mt)
白頭山,which has a big lake on the top.It is the  wellspring of two long rivers, ‘Abnok River綠江' and ‘DooMan River 豆滿江'

Here, it is the question of whether the ancestors of the other two librarians are the real ancestors of the two men who fled the big war between Tatars and Mongols,and Bo'rte Chi'na related to Genghis Khan's teenager Ala'n Qo'a from<The Secret History of Mongols>.
One of the clues is the record of <Tarikh-e Monghul,集史History of Mongol,1387> , which informed the era of the ten generations of the female captain Ala'n Qo'a of Genghis Khan/
Chinggiz Khan. "There is no solidarity until recently, but about 400 years have passed since the tribes of Genghis Khan/Chinggiz Khan and Ala'n Qo'a, to which Genghis Khan and his relatives belong, became precious and special among all the tribes of Mongolia." In other words, 400 years ago, around 910 year, when Rashid was writing<Tarikh-e Monghul,集史History of Mongol,1387> , the tribes of Dobun Bayan  her husband and Ala'n Qo'a, to which Genghis Khan/Chinggiz Khan belonged, became special beings among all the tribes of Mongolia. The great war against Tatar broke out in 732 and ended in 734 and the two fled overnight to Arkana' Qun, which is a difference of more than 200 years from the regiment referred to in<Tarikh-e Monghul,集史History of Mongol,1387>.

The second clue is that considering that Genghis Khan/Chinggiz Khanwas born in 1162, and Ala'n Qo'a is his teenage ancestor, calculating the first generation of a person to average 30 years, Ala'n Qo'a is nine generations ahead. If a woman lived before the 900s, Bo'rte Chi'na was also considered contemporary or around the year 850~900 .

Therefore, in light of the many historical facts described in relatively detail in Rashid's <Tarikh-e Monghul,集史History of Mongol,1387>, Genghis Khan's predecessor is considered to be the way to find hidden roots to reveal who "Nekuz and Kiyan/Qian" survived the war.
