§ 20. Discourse on the Turkish Pechenegs [1]
East of this country are the limits (ḥudūd)
of the Ghūz;
19a
| south of it, those of the Burṭās
and Barādhās;
west of it, those of the Majgharī
and the Rūs; north
of it, (the river) Rūthā.
This country in all respects resembles (that of) the Kīmāk
and is at war with all its neighbours. The (Pechenegs) have no towns; their
chief (mihtar) is one of themselves.
