Abstract: (ENG) The definition of the genesis, as well as the delimitation of the area where the Turkish people was formed, and from where they spread from Central Asia to the Mediterranean Sea, is still a controversial issue among specialists. Discussions between Turkology scholars usually refer to the initial phase of the formation of the Turkish people, and to their filiation with other people such as the Huns, the Avars, etc. Our task is somewhat eased by the fact that the formation of the Dobrujan Turks doesn’t belong to the initial period, mentioned above, which took place in Central Asia, but to the next phase and on the exact territory they live today.
