Togarmah is among the descendants of Japheth and is thought to represent some people located in Anatolia. Medieval traditions variously claimed Togarmah as the legendary ancestor of peoples in the Caucasus and Western Asia, including the Armenians, as descendants of the older son of Togarmah Hayk,the Georgians, as descendants of second son Kartlos, many nationalities of North Caucasus and Turkic peoples (i.e. Oghuzes, Khazars, Uyghurs). Later traditions Several later ethnological traditions have claimed Togarmah as the legendary ancestor of various peoples located in western Asia and the Caucasus. Jewish historian Flavius Josephus (37 – c. 100 AD) and the Christian theologians Jerome (c. 347 – 420 AD) and Isidore of Seville (c. 560 – 636 AD) regarded Togarmah as the father of the Phrygians.
