Mo-ho sad
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mo-ho sad was a Göktürk ishad or general of the early 7th century CE. He was a close kinsman and subject of the Western Göktürk khagan, Tong Yabghu.[1] Mo-ho was probably the father of Buri-sad and may have been the yabghu or prince of the Khazars.[2] He is referred to in Chinese sources as having sojourned in China from 618-626, possibly as Tong Yabghu's emissary to the Tang emperor.[3] Thereafter he disappears from the historical record.[4]
