Since the first line of the Küli ÃÂor inscription is incomplete, the "apa tarqan ÃÂñqan tonyukuk atñó bermià ¡" section follows the part that starts with the "üÃÂün" preposition. It is translated as "apa tarqan gave the name ÃÂñqan tonyukuk". Thus, it is possible that the name of Küli ÃÂor before he received his hero name (er at) was Tonyukuk. On the second line of the western face of the inscription, the missing beginning of the line could be read as "quda jegtürmià ¡ Ià ¡bara ÃÂÃÂqan Küli ÃÂur bolmÃ¯à ¡" which translated into "(when ⦠happened) (since) he was created (better), he took that title of Ià ¡vara ÃÂñqan Küli ÃÂor".
Gerard Clauson states that the first three lines of the inscription provides information on the identity of Küli ÃÂor. He argued that the personal name of Küli ÃÂor was Tonyukuk, (unrelated to the 646âÂÂ726 Tonyukuk), since his known title was Boyla Baóa Tarqan and especially based on the name Qapaghan Qaghan to be mentioned in the third line, it was not possible for Küli ÃÂor to have died after 716. It was not possible to obtain the title of "Köl", witnessed as Kül Tigin in Turks, and "otÃÂigin" by Mongolians, which was given to the smallest male child of the house. It is not written with ñ but using the signs that correspond to n and y.
