Tribe

The Ädiz clan was originally a member of Tiele Confederation but not a Uyghur subtribe; Chinese sources listed Ädiz (阿跌 Ädiē) as the 14th of, at least, 15 named Tiele tribes.[1][2][3][4] They were living on shores of Syr Darya during 600s.[5] They later migrated to near Baikal lake and became part of Xueyantuo during reign of Zhenzhu Khan. After submission to Tang China, they were appointed to Jitian Prefecture (雞田州)[6] — one of the prefectures that Tang established for the settlement of Tiele tribes that submitted to Tang during the reign of Emperor Taizong in the Hequ (河曲, i.e., the Ordos Desert region).[7] Their chieftain Ädie Liangchen (阿跌良臣, literally: "Good Minister from the Ädiz") and his tribal army was part of the army of Shuofang Circuit (朔方, headquartered in modern Yinchuan, Ningxia). His son Ädie Guangyan later adopted imperial surname and became a general in Chinese army. He died in 826.

Ädiz clan was also mentioned in Orkhon Inscriptions as a tribe subjugated by Kűl Tegin.

Royal clan

Founder of the royal clan of the Uyghur Khaganate, Qutluq was initially a member of the Ädiz clan. He was orphaned early in childhood and adopted by the Yaglakar clan. After Qutluq Bilge's untimely death, he succeeded to the qaghanate upon election by the nobles. He didn't change his surname back to the original one, but kept the Yaglakar name, nevertheless he exiled all of the remaining princes from cadet branches to Chang'an.[8]
