Abstract

This paper represents results of the pioneering research work which studied the toponymic heritage of real historical personalities like Akhmed Yassawi and Alexander the Great. It proposed that the name-giver of the city Turkestan is Akhmed Yassawi conducting the intensive toponymy and considering Akhmed Yassawi’s “Diwani Hikmet” and Suleyman Baqyrgani’s “Aqyrzaman” as the historical document. Also the research paper analysis the legends and stories related with the life of Akhmed Yassawi by Bolatbek Qorganbekov and Mashkhur Zhusup as the toponymic legends which can be considered as etymological foundations of some place names. The author of the current research work made the classification of Akhmed Yassawi’s toponymic heritage, which can be regarded as the first classification of historical personality’s toponymic heritage suggested by scholars. Moreover, the research work discovers the first Turkic Sufi Akhmed Yassawi’s deed from a new angle. All place names which are regarded as the toponymic heritage of Akhmed Yassawi were divided into three main groups. They are as following: 1. The place names the author of which Akhmed Yassawi himself; 2. Akhmed Yassawi’s, his relatives’ and followers’ graveyards, which are considered here as sacral places of Kazakhstan, and also they are nekronyms which can be accepted as toponymic heritage of Yassawi; 3. The place names which appeared under the influence of Yassawi’s relatives and followers. The total number of toponyms that are classified as Yassawi’s toponymic heritage is 33 toponyms. They are 13 econyms, 2 hydronyms, one oronym and 17 nekronyms. This research also compares Akhmed Yassawi’s toponymic heritage with the toponymic heritage of Alexander the Great. And it reveals main difference between them.
