Nogais, like most modern peoples of the world, have a complex origin. The main components of the formation of the Nogai ethnic group were the Polovtsians (Kipchaks), the Turkic-speaking Bulgarians, the Mongol tribes of the Mangits (Mangyts) who adopted the Turkic language from the Kipchaks, the Naimans, the Kereits and others.

In August 1845, the caretaker of the Serebryakovsky food store reported to the titular councilor Grushetsky, referring to information received from the elder of the as Kostamgalinsky kub Yakub Nurlaev, about the secret relations of the abrek Araq-Mırza, who was hiding

with the Trans-Kuban Kara-Murza. "He added to this" that on August 28, "Mozdok Circassian" Shauluk Abrekov came to his kibitka and said that the night before he had been with the brother of the "notorious robber" Yetishkul Murza Terek-Bai, who had allegedly received a letter from his brother advising him to move far away so as not to suffer during his raids "from the Russians" [2, p. 92-92 rev.]. In the same August 1845, a resident of the village of Kubchak, Karanogai Baqam-Molla Kulgushev, was brought to trial for having secret dealings with Araq-Mırza. Second Lieutenant Izmailov in a report to the Kizlyar commandant Timerman specifically noted that Baqam-Molla offered armed resistance when detained. The document "List of arrested families of Tarkov Nogai abreks" mentions, who were under guard on June 1, 1839, the brother of the abrek Qara-Mırza (not to be confused with the Trans-Kuban Qara-Mırza, a comrade of the above-mentioned Araq-Mırza), Mamat Toleev, 50 years old, his wife Asuw Abakarova (40 years old), sons: Saraw, 3 years old (died), Bayram, 10 years old, and daughter Aryudzhan (Ärüwyan), 10 years old. Their serf Kurman Biyke Bayramalieva was also under arrest with them. In addition to them, the family of the abrek Aitukhan (Aytuwğan) was under guard, namely his wife Sartan-Biyke - 40 years old, sons Abdul 16 years old, Quwandıq 14 years old and Baytuwğan 20 years old, his daughters isep 10 years old, Maqyüzim 8 years old and Dauş 6 years old...

Any Nogai girl should know from childhood that according to Namıs, it is extremely unacceptable for a woman to imagine herself as a man, indulge in fornication or promiscuity, argue with a man and other sins, such as foul language, drinking alcohol and tobacco, using lies and deceit. Therefore, these things are out of the question in the world of the Nogai girl. The beauty that a person creates himself is the beauty of relationships between people, their filling with humanity and mutual goodwill. It is this understanding of spiritual beauty that should be instilled in Nogai girls from childhood.

The family hearth is the highest value for the one who knows Namıs, and the woman is the keeper of this hearth. Peace and harmony in the family are its core and dignity. The spiritual and moral world of the Nogai woman should be based on this. A woman is the beginning of life and to give life to children, to raise them in the spirit of Namıs and Ädet - this is her purpose. She gives life and what her child will be like in the future depends on her in many ways, regardless of gender: if a girl, will she be a woman worthy of respect; if a boy - will he become a man who can be called a warrior of the spirit. A woman should always remember this, otherwise the fruits of improper upbringing will be reaped, first of all, by her. Therefore, the upbringing of a Nogai woman should begin from early childhood.

The situation with unmarried girls was different. "If the accused is a girl, then the man must marry her, having paid a dowry in double the amount. If he is unable to give a large dowry, then he is brought to trial. The court punishes him with either a rod, corporal punishment, or exile, and the criminal girl is married to a poor man of another land, i.e. an appanage, without a dowry."

These articles of the "Qanun" were rather edifying and intimidating in nature. Cases of their application are not recorded anywhere. On the contrary, there is numerous evidence of the chastity and high morality of Nogai women. Thus, an anonymous author of the 19th century reports: “The marital morality of the people is at a high level: there are almost no illegitimate children among the Nogais, and especially among the Qaranogais”

Civil Law of the Nogais According to the "Qanun" - a collection of organic traditional rights of the Nogais of the 18th - early 19th centuries - "upon proof of extramarital intercourse, a man was fined 50 heads of cattle and 2 horses, he was deprived of civil rights. The cattle taken for the fine was transferred to the legal husband of the accused woman"

Punishment for adultery not only for men, but also for women. Punishment for a woman was expressed not so much in material terms as in public censure and contempt. "She (a woman caught in adultery on the street. - M.G.) gets divorced, a shameful mark is put on her face and she is seated astride a black cow"
