تبرغان
Karakhanid
Etymology
Usually transcribed as topurğān etymologized to be from a now defunct verb *topurmāq, however such a verb is unattested, due to this Clauson suggests that this is a misspelling of toprağān and suggests the root تُبْراماقْ (toprāmāq, “to dry, wither”) whence تُبْراقْ (toprāq, “soil”).[1]
Noun
تُبُرْغانْ (topurğān)
