BELA'S CARPAT GÁLYCIANS

INTRODUCTION

The idea of an Azeri Jewish 13th tribe is a crackpot fringe theory made popular by Wikipedia. There was never any Azeri Khazar Kingdom. But Azerbaijan's Paulician-Alevi religion was adopted by a Noahide Judaic kingdom which did exist from the 8th to 11th centuries governed from GÁLYCIVKA (Romanian Gálycia ie Pokutia & Bukovina) in Moldavia's Highlands.

Gálycians were the Judaic "Black (Chernivtsi) Kuzari" being one of the Polovtsi tribes from the OnOq federation of Togarma (the Western Turkic Khaganate). They were Mosaist Muslims and gave their name to places like Galați and Gálycz. They were the first to build a state around the Carpathians a thousand years before Michael the Brave repeated the same feat.

Under the guidance of Romaniote Jews from Syrmia these Noahide Cathars also laid the religious foundations from which the Bohemian reformation would grow 5 centuries later. 

The history of the Gálycians (recorded mainly in East European legends but backed up by corroborations as well as archaeological, religious and DNA evidence) involves the migration of Anatolians into Northern Gálycivka stopping at Byzatium, Syrmia and Pannonia on the way.

This migration accompanies the victory of Noahide Judaism (of the Paulician Alevi brand) over the chaos and paganism of Eastern Europe's "Wild Fields". Sadly the story has not been reconstructed before now and elements of it have previously even been misconstrued, belittled or ignored in the interests of suppressing the antiquity of Greater Edumen/Romania's territorial validity with stories which do not explain all of the historical elements that need to be considered.

BACKGROUND

Thanks to the migration of Hebrews in Western Eurasia until the 3rd century BC practically anyone can claim Hebrew ancestry. And although Hebrew certainly does not mean Judaic, it might incline one towards the basic laws of Noah. 

Hebrews of Western Eurasia

The story of Greater Romania's Noahides begins with Balamir's Black Huns who came from Scythian Mordovia in the 4th century AD and turned West Carpathian Moldava into a Finnougrian Empire spreading from Central Europe into the Steppes of South Russia. But the Nomads' Empire was unstable and collapsed after a few generations in the hands of Attila's three sons -Ellac, Dengiz and Ernakh. When Attila died among the Vlachtani (Bractani) of Dacia in 453, most of his Huns fled back to Scythia after the Battle of Krimhilda. But after being attacked by Xiyonite (西戎 or simply 匈) Kitolo (who in turn were escaping the Xvarezmi Bazahawks / Bosen / 烏孫) in 463, Ernakh's Huns were finally successful in their petitioning of Byzantium to retain a humble realm as the Zaculi Kutrigurs/Utrigurs of the Wild Fields.  

Kutrigur/Utrigur Moldavia
465

The Zaculi Kutrigurs were at peace with Byzantium until after Ernakh died when they came to believe that his son Csaba had also died in Byzantium. After the Zaculi Kutrigurs began to attack Byzantium, Csaba was of no use to Byzantium and fled to ancestral Mordovia but being half-Byzantine failed to find a wife there and retired to the Kitolo of the Bosen (烏孫) Kingdom (Corasan) instead to become the father of the Gálycians better known in the 6th century as the Varchonítes (滑匈) . 

THREE BROTHERS

Csaba's three half-Kidarite sons Edumen (Vulgarios/Czekh), Ed (Kazarig/Lekh/Corp) and Pata (Undur/Kiy/Rus) set off from Squtaye in 549 to reclaim Attila's Empire and began to rule over the Zaculi Kutrigurs of the Wild Fields from 555. 

1. Ed (Kazarig/Vlekh/Corp) ruled the Barsils of the Boseni 烏孫 Kingdom. Bela's Carpats (Βελοχρωβάτοι) descends from him. 
2. Pata (Undur/Kiy/Rus)'s Utrigurs were initially confined to Transdniestria. 
3. Edumen (Vulgari/Shekh) strove to claim his great Grandfather's title organizing his Gálycians into an Empire of Greater Dacia (Old Great Vulgaria) while using the title Avar Khagan was granted the right to rule Dacia (Bracta) by Emperor Maurice. The name Edumen is a reference to Romania. 

It is important here to mention that Transnistria's Ten-Tribes (On-Oq) of Togarma (Gelonus) are described in various Semitic sources as:

1. Noahide Judaic Kuzar (כוזר) people. 
2. Either Ongal or אוגר. 
3. Either Ugin or כוז often miswritten בוז. 
4. Tiros (a scribal error for טורק). 
5. Zavor (or Janur) either a scribal error for זכוך (a Zabender people who fled to the Avars from the Turks) or for זיכוס Zikhūs, (the Northwest Caucasian Zygii?) 
6. Bolngar (a scribal error for (בולגר). 
7. Torna (or תולמץ the Pecheneg tribe Βορο-ταλμάτ < *Boru-Tolmaç mentioned by Byzantine emperor Constantine VII) a Tarniach people who fled to the Avars from the Turks. 
8. Besel (or Besen ie פיצינק). 
9. Savromat ie Sabir or ˀln (אלן) aka Elicanum. 
10. Hauvar aka Hyavar aka Khangvina aka כנבינא aka Kangvik. 

The Paulician Alevi religion was promoted by Patriarch Sergius I as a result of a pact in 619 between Heraclius and the Paulician Alevis. Under this pact, Ed's Mordvin descendant (Porga's father) Organa of Donbas as well as Organa's nephew, the Transnistrian  Onogundur lord Koubrat descended from Pata having defeated Romania in 627 were Baptised as Paulician Alevis by Patriarch Sergis I of Constantinople. It was through them that Paulician Alevism was preserved in Europe.

GREATER DACIA (OLD GREAT VULGARI)

In 631 Koubrat, in alliance with Samo (and having submitted with the "true" Avar 滑 "Tuhrul" Khagan to the Western Turkic Onoq) overthrew Romania's Pseudoavar descendant Alciocus to become the next Varchoníte Khagan of Greater Dacia (Old Great Vulgari).

The Heraclians ordered and brought priests from Rome and made of them an Archbishop and a bishop and elders and deacons and baptised the unbaptised white Carpats (Βελοχρωβάτοι) in the time of Organa's son Porga. But when Kubrat died in 668, the next Pata, Baian, seems to have followed Byzantine practice and dropped Monoenergism causing his brothers to abandoned him.

Kubrat's Sons

Baian's brother Kurtugyermat settled in Suzdal from whence his Magyar descendant Almos would later migrate to Hungary in 884. 

677 BELA'S CARPAT CONQUEST OF SIMBURG

When his Polovtsi Ed/Kazarig/Vlekh/Corip uncles in the Boseni Kingdom heard of Baian's failure from Kurtgugyermat's Cumani Albi they set out to conquer Old Great Vulgari. Leaving the Boseni Kingdom they overtook the Cumani Albi of Suzdal and subdued Kiev. Then Romanian refugees asked for help so having conquered Old Great Vulgari, Bela's Carpat Prince Marot spent three months crossing the Mountains for which his people were named. They came into Transylvania, the Varchoníte Hring of Vlachta (Bracta) which they subdued and to establish Simburg where they would tarry until (having been joined by the Kurtugyermat Kouvers in Moldavia) the Bazahawks killed Almos in 896.

Bela's Carpat Marot demanded tribute from their nephews and forced Baian's brother Tetartos-Kuber's 7 Children (Croat, Kloukas, Lobelos, Kosentzis, Mouchlo, Touga and Bouga) with their entourage out of the Varchoníte Hring across the Danube and out of Syrmia into Dalmatia from whence they aupported his brother Asparuk's southwards campaign from Kazarig vassalage to fight against the Byzantines and establish the Vulgarian Empire in Moesia/Ongal (Volkhia) while Constantine IV is under siege by Muawiya (d.680).

Another brother called Alzeco in Pannonia fled from the Polovtsi prince Marot to Ravenna. Thus all of the Late Varchoníte Hring fell to Gálycivka's Gálycians of Marot who ruled as far south as Srbobran near Celarevo. 

Bela's Carpat Paulician Alevis of Simburg called themselves Cathars and begin to be very important during the reign of the Byzantine Emperor Justinian II who wed Kazarig-Porga's daughter, the Cathar Khagan Busir's sister baptised as Theodora with whom he became father to the half-Cathar Emperor Tiberius IV. 

Koubrat's Paulician Alevi descendants also found friends in the Isaurian dynasty. Leo the Isaurian (717-741) learned a lot from the Paulician Alevis (for example that the Quran was authored by an Emir by a Pharisee and by Abuturab) and protected them from Patriarch Germanus (715-730). He gave his son Constantine V in marriage to the Cathar Princess Tzitzak daughter of Bihar (and possibly the sister of Bulan).

Al-Kuzari mentions that the Edumen-Ishmaelite (Messianic Noahide) conversion of Bela's Carpat Gálycians also took place at this time.

745 John of Damascus mentions Cathari.

747, Emperor Constantine V and his Cathar Empress moved a significant number of Paulician Alevi asylum seekers from Eastern Anatolia to Thrace where they boost the waning Paulician Alevi faith of Byzantium's Vulgari neighbours in Moesia. Pavlikeni is named after them. 

Not only Paulician Alevis but Jews from Persia and Armenia who had also fled Abbasid persecution to Tauria likewise intermarried with the Cathar BenuMarot in Slovakian Moldava. But unlike the rest of the Khazars, (since Monoenergism had been anathematized by the Byzantine Church) the Paulician Alevis of Transylvania decided to reject the dualism of Constantinian-Edom vs Abbasid-Ishmael in the 750s and began instead to accept the fraternity of Edumean-Ishmaelite (Messianic Noahide) Judaism at Celarevo from Isaac Sangari. From the 750s onwards, the Late Varchonítes of Bela's Carpat Marot also came to be known simply as the Cozar peoples. 

By the end of the 8th century, the Polovtsi of Chelarevo were practicing Cathar Noahide Judaism guided by Isaac Sangari and the Cathar Khagans of Moldavia's Huns of Bulan.

Simburg on the Sambatian

796 The Franks conquer the Varchonite Hring forcing Khagan Isaac's Pharisaical Episcopate and Pannonian army to abandon Edumen/Romania's Kozli Gers (Noahides) and escape to the Black Polovtsi safe-haven in Transcarpathian Gálycivka. 

Gálycivka
(Pokutia & Bukovina)

The Franks start imposing their own Roman Catholic Episcopy on Edumen's Kozli Gers (Noahides) appointing puppet rulers such as Abraham. Abraham was succeeded by brutal Kozl who was slain by Porin. Kozl's son Pribina and grandson Kozl to try and winover the Kozli.

However, many of Edumen's Kozli in Transylvania rally around a General called Krum from Pata's House of Kouvers who they first establish as Khaan of the Vulgarians before starting to take back Dacia (Vlachta) from the Frankish "Avar" Puppets in 805.  

Krum's Legacy
814-831

In 824, under Krum's son Omurtag, a general called Kopan Okorsis drowned in the Dnieper during Vulgarian activities beyond the northeastern frontier of Atelcusu suggesting that Atelcusu might have established a temporary union with Omurtag's Vulgaria. 

Omurtag's grandson Zvinitsavich begins to expand his own slavonic Episcopy to keep Frankish administration at bay. 

Zvinitsavich
836-852

In 870 Zvinitsavich's son Boris I intimidated Rome and Byzatium enough to gain recognition for his Bulgarian episcopate. This Alienates the Vulgate Paulician Alevi Volkh in Valachia who with the Black Polovtsi based in Etelkoza (Romanian Gálycia) likewise have nothing against Byzatium but prefer to keep their own systems distinct rather than imitate Byzantine ways.

881 Oleg the Wise of Kiev is friends with the 7 Polovtsi Princes of Romanian Gálycivka (Etelkoza). 

884 The Kurtugyermat of Almis and other Hetumoger defeat the Kievan Rus and establish an alliance with Ed's 7 Polovtsi chieftains in Etelkoz (Romanian Gálycia). The sole heir to Ed's Belacarpat dynasty of Romanian Gálycia is given as hostage to childless Almis at Gálych. 

894 Magyars from Romanian Gálycia liberate the Subcarpathian Cathar peoples of Ungvar from the Frankish Episcopy imposed by Laborec. 

Bulgaria
893

895 Byzantium was concerned about the Bulgarian Church so enticed the Magyars staying with the Polovtsi in Romanian Gálycia to attack the Bulgarian Episcopy and win over the Zaculi (K)utrigurs in Transylvania. 

MOLDAVIAN VOLOKHIA

Thus united a Polovtsi Cathar Diocese of Romania falls away from the Bulgarian Church as a result while the rest of Hungary stays loyal to Boris I's new Bulgarian Church Episcopy. 

Moldavian & Walachian
Polovtsi Autonomy

896 The Bulgarian Church responds by paying ex-Khazarian Boseniok (烏孫) to chase the Magyars out of Transnistria at the battle of the Bug river. The Magyars respond by going on to liberate the Cathar peoples in Crisana under leaders such as the BenuMarot who have subscribed to the Bulgarian Church hierarchy. Cathar independent baptists will survive in Moravia and among the Hungarians thanks to the Polovtsi of Valachia and Moldavia who also remain a source of Cathar influence on Europe for the next 4 centuries.

By the end of the Magyar conquest of Hungary, Bulgaria was much smaller.

Gálycivka maintained a bumpy friendship with the Magyars in Hungary. 

960s Aaron II was succeeded by the Bulanid Khagan Joseph of the Halytsivka-Khalyzians in Atelkuzu who is contacted by the Jews of Spain.

964 The Messiah Ben Joseph millennium has already begun as predicted by Saadia Gaon. Inheriting the spirit of Messiah Ben Joseph the Scribes and Pharisees become Stateless Pacifists for 1000 years. Romanos (927-969) persecutes Jews and condemns the Bulgarian Church for tolerating Heterodoxy. Sviatoslav I conquers Khazaria. Geza is baptised.

While accusing the Bulgarian Church of ignoring Heterodoxy, around 969, the Byzantine emperor John I Tzimiskes sought to weaken the Bulgarian Church some more by strengthening the Cathar presence in Bulgaria again by transplanting 200,000 more Armenian Paulicians to Europe and settled them in the neighbourhood of Philippopolis (today's Plovdiv, Bulgaria). The Paulician Alevi Samuil begins to take control of Bulgaria. 

1018 Byzantium conquers and annexes what is left of Krum's Bulgaria and the Paulician Alevis are left to their own devices. 

Hungarian Gálycivka

1041 Samuel Aba brought his Gálycian Principality into union with Hungary. Many Pannonian Jews began to settle in Gálycivka from this time onwards.

1044 Aba is slain by Peter. 

1046 Andrew I

1054 the Great Schism

1060 Bela I spreads Roman Catholicism in Hungary. In 1061 the Kingdom of Hungary began to sever cultural ties with Halytsivka. King Bela I passed the first laws against the Sabbath religion by ordering that markets should take place on Saturdays instead of the traditional Sundays. Besarabian Mutenia secedes.

On the 20 May 1092, at the Synod of Szabolcs, St. Ladislaus decreed that Jews should not be permitted to have Christian wives and abolished their right to equal Feudal Lordship alongside Christian Lords over Christian Serfs ending a lot of the advantage of owning land in Hungary. 

In November 1095, Pope Urban II began to preach the Crusades which led to the first massacre of Jews in the Holy Roman Empire so that even the descendants of many Ashkenazim who had previously fled to, now Bohemian, Moravia and Saxony returned to the East along with many Jews fleeing the Rhineland massacres. 

1096 Coloman

Although the Hungarians under Coloman (1095-7) violently opposed the Crusaders' pogroms, it was probably the immigration of the rich Bohemian Jews that induced Coloman soon afterward to regulate commercial and banking transactions between Jews and Christians. He renewed the 1092 Szabolcs decree of St Ladislaus, adding further prohibitions against the employment of Christian servants and domestics. Furthermore, he restricted the Jews to cities with episcopal sees. However, he also decreed, among other regulations, that if a Christian borrowed from a Jew, or a Jew from a Christian, both Christian and Jewish witnesses must be present at the transaction.

1096 Rot Yudlayn saves the Jews of Worms in the Rhineland. 

Many Jews banished from Prague at the time of the First Crusade arrived in the Chernivtsi province of Halych in 1097-8 where they enjoyed a greater level of equality. As the Polish-Lithuanian Republic expanded the Jews thrived with it for 6 centuries.

After becoming a Rus Principality, Gálycia became the main ally of Bosniak Romania. The Bosniak Cathars established bases in Bosnia and Moravia as well as in the Waldensian Alps and as far west as Albigensia while the Principality of Gálycia remained the main centre of Eastern Ashkenazi Jewry.

1205-1246 Daniel ruled and established the Diocese of Cumania in 1228 until the Principality was broken up by the Tatars in 1241 and he was limited to ruling only Ruthenia while Besarabian Mutenia is given to the Gálycian Keraites.

1246 the Gálycian Keraites are gradually converted into Noahides by the local Scribes and Pharisees. 

1278 Tokhtamir of Besarabian Mutenia conquers Barbat and annexes Oltenia.
