Chanyu






Xiongnu


Chanyu (Chinese: 單于; Chinese: 单于; pinyin: Chányú; short form for Chengli Gutu Chanyu (Chinese: 撐犁孤塗單于; pinyin: Chēnglí Gūtu Chányú)) was the title used by the nomadic supreme rulers of Inner Asia for eight centuries and was superseded by the title "Khagan" in 402 CE.[1] The title was used by the ruling Luandi clan of the Xiongnu during the Qin dynasty (221-206 BCE) and Han dynasty (206 BCE–220 CE).

Etymology


According to Book of Han, Chēnglí 撐犁 means "heaven", gūtu 孤塗 "son" and chányú 單于 "immense appearance".[2]


Linguist Alexander Vovin proposes Yeniseic etymology for 撐犁孤塗單于, in Old Chinese pronunciation *treng-ri kwa-la dar-ɢā, from tentative roots *tɨŋgVr- "high", *kwala- "son, child", *tɨl' "low, north", and *qʌ̄j ~ χʌ̄j "prince"; as a whole "Son of Heaven, Ruler of the North".[3][4]
