Etymology
The name Lygossia comes from the Greek word for "wolf", "lycos" which is national animal of Lygossia Nogai and various other Turkic nations, also a holy animal in Turkic mythology. Ottomans used the word "Lûkoşân" (Lygosses); (in modern Turkish, Lukoslar) to distunguish Oghuz people in Crimea from the Crimean Tatars. However after centuries the name "Lygossian" started to be used for the "Turkic people in Crimea", both for Kipchaks and Oghuzes.
