Kama Tarkhan was a legendary ancestor-King, mentioned in sources on the Altyn Oba Horde^{[citation needed]} located on the steppes to the north of the Black Sea.

He was a chief associated with the Huns who appear in the west near the Caspian sea, (according to Tacitus) at the turn of the 1st century AD in retreat from drought, anthrax, and the campaign of Ban Chao (班超) against the Northern Xiongnu.
