In 635 AD, the western Turkish kaganate reorganised into the 10-arrow Turks, comprised of 5 Nushibi and 5 Tele (Dulu) tribal leaders, who were recognized as Shads (blood prince).

About 1000 AD, the Kipchaks had three main groups: the main group and whole people are Kipchaks, western (European) branch is usually recorded as Cumans, and eastern (Asiatic) branch is known as Kangli (or Kengeress).

A similar record of the kin people separated by the same distance was witnessed in 1223, when Tatars recognized Kipchaks as their kin in the northern Caucasus area.
