State is not = people. IEs could created state with mongolian people. Simply.
Many if not all kagans from first turkut's kaganate have Iranic names. The turkic script is
a sogdian one, and sogdian was a cultural language of the kagante. Probably majority of
people were of mongolian provenance, so altaic language dominated all members of this state.
In this area mixes were happening since millenia, so it is nothing strange.Maybe Turkic was originally Siberian Mongoloid with paternal IE' ancestry. The Pazyryk culture is a Iranic but the males were part Mongoloid and females were Europoid.
But some lingusts point on that, that turk is an iranian name. If I correctly
remember, there was some iranic/scythian tribe with similar name, and what
is also important, iranic mythology considerd them equaly related people who
descendend from three brothers, one was Sarmatian, second Turk and fourth
Iranian. It of course doesn not mean, that 100% of turkic speakers in XIII century
had that provenance, but the elite and main culture making part of that people.
Hungarians are from Ural and Syberia, but only 0,48% of them is really of that provenance.
similar situation is woth Bulgars. So, you have to divided people on parts to knw, who is from.
There is no one good answer, becasue there is no one people.
Because they were mixing - it is logical, then if on the steppe lived both kind" Reconstruction of the mounds number 5, 6 show burial Stone Barn in racial make women Ural Europoid mixed type men - striking features of Central Asian Mongoloid."
of people, then they were mixing with each other. What other did you expect?
