what is wrong with it?

[edit] It is wrong

7th century BC is a wrong date for the first appereance of the Turkish tribes. At least 40 centuries of Turkish history is known today(actually ancestors of the first Turkish tribes possibly lived 10,000 years before). With respect, Deliogul 10:21, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

  • The author says that the Turks first appeared in HISTORY (that is, in written sources) in the 7th century BC. It does not say this is the first moment the Turks appeared, but the first moment they appeared in history.DaMatriX 23:07, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
As far as I know, it is 2nd century BC that Turkish people appear as a part of Hun coalition under Teoman. But Turkic people has an older history. Ati7 10:15, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
