Description
Summary:	In this paper, I would like to discuss a minor point that does not alter any of the great issues connected to the study of the Kutadgu Bilig. I used mainly the translation of Robert Dankoff which has already inspired many scholars who are engaged in the study of the Karakhanid literature. Although well-known, I would like to mention that R. Dankoff’s introduction, too, gives full justice to Yūsuf’s masterpiece. Working on the Old Uigur fragments I always had an eye open to the Karakhanid literature in the western region of Turkistan to find something worth to compare with the East. This time, I am able to present a small piece that opens the curtain a little bit.
