 * I would note that he is not entirely mythical: he seems to have been the religious leader the Turks who accompanied the deposed Seljuq sultan Kaykaus II into exile. See the Wittek article listed in the bibliography below. Aramgar (talk) 23:20, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, sure, I'm not saying he never existed, just that whatever historical reality he may once have had is lost in the mists of time and legend, so it makes no sense to ask for birth/death dates. Languagehat (talk) 00:36, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Perhaps a floruit? 13th century is fine. Aramgar (talk) 00:38, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
