Tribal affinity

There are different theories on tribal identity of Bilge Kul khagan. According to Western historiography, he was a ruler of Isfijab, a descendant of Karluk yabghu. He was from Edgish tribe, a part of Chigils[3][4] or a Yagma. According to Pritsak, he claimed title "Khaqan" after fall of Uyghur khaganate since he was from Ashina dynasty.[5][6][7] However Wei Liangtao claims, he was in fact Pang Tegin, a ruler of remnants of Uyghur ruling dynasty in Khotan.[8]Qian Baiquan doubted that.[9]
