Myrat Talyby

Myrat Talyby lived from about 1766 to 1848; Talyby is the pen name he took in poetry. A Turkmen textbook of 2001, reproduced online, has him born near Gökdepe, first educated in his village, and ranks him among the renowned bagşy of his time, in contact with Kemine, Şabende and Mollanepes. He also left a dastan in which his name is joined to that of a heroine and which the Encyclopædia Britannica describes as almost autobiographical.
