Argyn
The Argyn are one of the largest tribes of the Middle Juz of the Kazakhs, living mainly in central, northern and eastern Kazakhstan. Their name is recorded among the tribes of the Golden Horde before the formation of the Kazakh Khanate in the 15th century, and they formed a leading part of the Middle Juz alongside the Naiman, Kerei and Kypchak. Many prominent Kazakh leaders and writers traced their descent from them.
