Visit to monument to Tailak Batyr in Naryn.

"In 1832, Khakkuly defeated the Sayaks, captured their leaders Atantay and Tailak and brought them to Kokand, imposed yasak on the Chiriks, Bassyz, Monaldyrs and founded Kurtka. The fortification of Tuguztarau was built even earlier. Atatay and his brother Tailak did not want to submit to the Kokandans and after being released from captivity, they migrated to Ili to the Kirghiz of the Great Horde, but later, plundered by the Kaisaks, they returned to their ancestral camps."
