Varsak is a Turkmen tribe mainly inhabiting Turkey. They were originally a tribe divided among the Karamanids and the Ramadanids. The Ottoman state struggled to bring the tribe under their authority as the main region they inhabited (known as Varsak ili) was situated high in the Bolkar Mountains, constituting the rugged border between the region of Karaman and Cilicia.[2]

History

Varsak was listed among the Turkmen tribes who established themselves in southern Anatolia by 14th-century sources from the Mamluk Sultanate, such as Ṣubḥ al-aʿshā of al-Qalqashandi and Zubdat Kashf al-Mamalik of Ibn Shahin al-Zahiri.[3] The Varsaks were among the most powerful Turkmen tribes who joined the Karamanid princes Pir Ahmed and Kasim in their struggle against the Ottoman state. With tribal support, Pir Ahmed and Kasim took over various Anatolian towns including Aksaray, Develi, Ereğli, Larende, and Niğde, although they failed to capture Konya. Kasim took advantage of the Ottomans' investment in Euboia on the European side of the Aegean Sea and advanced as north as Ankara. Mehmed II (r. 1444–46, 1451–81) assigned Rum Mehmed Pasha to subdue the Karamanids in the summer of 1470. Chief of the Varsaks, Uyuz Beg, and his men flanked Rum Mehmed Pasha in the Taurus Mountains, disrupting the Ottoman hopes to extinguish the Karamanids. Later, Ishak Pasha was also tasked with dealing with the Karamanids. Ishak Pasha successfully defeated the Turghud and Varsak Turkmens. He captured the rebellious fortresses of Varkoy, Uçhisar, and Ortahisar, exiled the residents of Aksaray to Constantinople, and repaired the fortifications of Mut and Niğde.[4]

Sub-tribes

The major sub-tribes of Varsak are Kushtamur, Esenlu, Gokchalu, Elvanlu, Kusun, and Ulash. Other sources also include the tribe of Kara Isa as part of the Varsaks.[5]

Regurgitation (digestion)

Type of eating behaviour Flesh fly, from the family Sarcophagidae blowing a bubble. One explanation for this behaviour is that it concentrates the fly's meal by the process of evaporation. The diet of the flesh fly is very high in water content. The fly regurgitates the liquid portion of the food, holds it while evaporation reduces the water content and the fly then swallows a much more concentrated meal without the water content. This continues until sufficient amount of liquid is left for t...
