Prince of Western Turkic Qaghanate From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bagha Shad (Old Turkic: 𐰉𐰍𐰀𐱁𐰑, romanized: baγa šad, simplified Chinese: 莫贺设; traditional Chinese: 莫賀設; pinyin: mòhè shè; Wade–Giles: mo-ho she) was a Göktürk shad or general of the early 7th century CE. He was a close kinsman and subject of the Western Göktürk khagan, Tong Yabghu.[1] Bagha Shad was probably the father of Böri Shad and may have been the yabghu or prince of the Khazars.[2]
He is referred to in Chinese sources as having sojourned in China in 618–626, possibly as Tong Yabghu's emissary to the Tang emperor.[3] Thereafter he disappears from the historical record.[4]
