[edit] Izmir Alkanzur I

 A true story of migration


Alum Harshka, was a Turkmen warrior leader. He and his people were wanderers of the Turkmen plains, where they lived in a sort of Yurt. This was around the time of 1600BC. At a certain period in time, however, there was most probably the necessity to move west. This could have been due to the Uzbek warriors moving west too, and attacking Turkmen settlements. even though the tribe of Alum Harshka fought well, they lived in the Eastern deserts close to the main Uzbek camps. This eventually led to their need to retreat. It is beleived that their population numbers were possibly some 4000 people. the warrior number of the Uzbeks alone may have been some 2000 men. This drove the people west, untill they eventually left modern day Turmenistan, paaing into modern day Iran. There, they lost the Uzbeks, even though their numbers had been well thinned out. There, they spent some 90 years wandering Iranian desert. Then, by about the year of 1470BC. they left Iran, crossing the border into modern day Turkey. There, they travelled across the mountains, untill They reached the Anatolian Plateau under the leadership of Alub Harshka, Alum's great grandson. The year was then 1380BC. just upon the edge of The Anatolian plateau, Alub decided to make their first settlement ever: Konya. the 1000 most weary people decided to settle tere, and let the others move further South. About a year later, Alub died, and his Son, Ejum took over. Next year, they reached a great water mass of the Meditteranean sea. There, they started there new Capital: Antalya. There, they finally settled, and built the town. However, Ejum was a weak leader, and in 1370BC, the first revolution in the tribes history occured. after this, a new leader arose mysteriously from the people. Rezkoert was his name. he was then later crowned: prince Izmir Alkansur I. Izmir took control again of Konya, and started a new Era of Turkish history.

[edit] "Real" Disambiguation page?

Anyone object to converting this to a WP:MOSDAB-like disambiguation page? I'm not sure how cleanly it can be done. If there are concerns, I'll post a trial version here first. If I don't hear any, I'll do it "in place." (John User:Jwy talk) 19:59, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Aye. I'm the one that changed the official status - let's face it, this is far more like one than an article. But it could use pushing into official format. (and possibly a stub article actually on migration? Adam Cuerden talk 23:45, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
To me, this looks much more like an article than like a disambiguation page. It contains a substantive, if brief, discussion of the topic, rather than merely pointing to other articles on similarly-named topics. --Russ (talk) 13:12, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

I agree. A disambiguation page is sorely needed with this article. What we have are mostly unrelated stubs stuck together to look like an article. I believe the articles should be split with a disambiguation page. Sure, not all of the resulting articles will result in acceptable articles, but splitting them will call attention to this and may result in better articles being written.--65.190.103.147 08:11, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] weird

Some one has deleted most of the stuff in this page. What is going on? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.190.103.147 (talk • contribs)

The page has been changed to a disambiguation page (although it has MORE information on it that is usually useful for disambiguation purposes). (John User:Jwy talk) 18:58, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Move

Looking back at the history, I apparently made a wrong assumption that Migration was moved to here and it might have been the wrong thing to move this talk page - but I think the content here is appropriate. (John User:Jwy talk) 18:58, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Removed "unreferenced"

This was already solidly a disambig page, and I just tweaked and trimmed it to make it even more so. As such, I removed the "unreferenced" tag, since there is very little info here, and most of that is summarized from other articles. Fredwerner 05:26, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] TOC interrupts

The TOC pops up at just the wrong place. Jidanni 15:43, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

I tried in in both Firefox and IE and it renders correctly.--Svetovid 16:13, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Manifest destiny

Shouldn't the westward migration in the US of manifest destiny be listed under historical migrations? Not sure if manifest destiny is the article to link to, but it is definitely important for this topic.
