Abstract
The article examines parallel Turkic toponyms found in the territories of Tatarstan and Azerbaijan, as they can shed light on the history of the Turkic-speaking peoples’ settlement in these vast territories. Nowadays, when the origin of the toponyms and the processes of their formation over a long historical period are being clarified, their distribution area is of current interest. As toponyms are our cultural heritage, they enable us to make a mental journey to the historical origins of our people. Parallel toponyms, like puzzles, help recreate the map of the settlement and formation of such peoples as Azerbaijanis, Tatars, Bashkirs, Kirghiz, Kumyks, etc. Further studies of parallel toponyms will shed light on many onomastics issues. The studied toponymic data prove the complexity of the Turkic peoples’ migration routes in the course of global historical processes across vast territories.
