Uigur is marked as uyqur in old Turkic inscriptions. According to the Chinese sources of that time they were mentioned as Khoukhy tribes. It is a general name of ethnic and political union. One shouldnt confuse it with the nation of uigur that live in China (Shynzhan Uigur autonomous Republic). Move on reference number of X sign to close.

Trk Qbaq. S.E.Malov, G.Aidarov, S.Karzhaubai after having restored it read it as Turuk Qibcaq. The group which took part in the Mongolian and Japanese expedition in 1996-1998 restoring the above mentioned obliterated lines (their letters) as Turk qyn cq read it Turuk qayan ciq (I heard that the Turuk qayans sat on the throne exactly for fifty years). See : Takao Moriyasu . Site and Inscription of Sine-Usu // Provisional report of researches on historical sites and inscriptions in Mongolia from 1996 to 1998 . Edited by Takao Moriyasu and Ayudai Ochir. The Society of Central Eurasian Studies, Toyonaka, Osaka University, 1999. pp. 177-195. On steles and memorials in the Orhon zone there is no name . If there had been the most important name at that time, why it was written and carved on the steles and memorials only once? To answer the question it is necessary to study it thoroughly.
