Bzhedug
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Bzhedugh)
In Russia, the Bzhedug are one of the ten tribal divisions of the Adygi. In the 19th century they were considered to be a distinct ethnic group. Many of them emigrated to Turkey in the 1860s, but there was still a community of Bzedug on the left bank of the Kuban River (in the vicinity of Krasnodar) in the 1980s.[1]
