They come from Central Asia, outer China and Mongolia. mainly from places like the steppes. If you want to be exact about it, they originated in the Altai Mountains, on the border of China and Kazakhstan, in around 5000 BC. The first distinct Turkish tribe was the Huns, who were harassing the Chinese as early as 1500 BC.
