Khamkhins
from Wikipedia

Khamkhins (Ingush: Хамхой, romanized: Khamkhoy[1]), also known as Ghalghaï,[2][3][4][5] were a historical Ingush ethnoterritorial society,[a] which was located in the upper reaches of the Assa River. The Khamkhin society, like the Tsorin society, was formed from the former "Ghalghaï society" as a result of the transfer of rural government to Khamkhi.[5]

Key Information

The Khamkhin society continued to be synonymously called "Ghalghaï", after the name of the historical region "Ghalghaïche", on the territory of which the society was formed. The name "Ghalghaïche" in turn comes from the self-name of the Ingush - "Ghalghaï", which had a central and broad meaning in Ingushetia, being a common self-name for other Ingush societies, united by a common territory, common language and culture.[19][20]

Geography
