The Epic of Oğuz Kağan is based on the birth of Oğuz Kağan, his heroic deeds, great conquests, and his unification of the Turkic people. The epic tells of his birth as a ruler with supernatural powers, the guidance he received from God, and his unification of the Turkic world under a single banner. Oghuz Khan, also known as Ughuz Khan, is the ancestor of the Turks in Turkic and Altai mythology. He is also known as Ughuz Khan, Uz Khan, or Ogur (Ogur, Ugur) Khan. His mother was Ay Khan and his father was Kara Khan. He is the main protagonist of the Oghuz Khan Epic and is identified with Mete Khan, the ruler of the Asian Hun Empire, in the epic.
