Krumbates was a king of the Chionitae, an ancient tribe of Transoxiana.
Etymology
The exact spelling and origin of his name is not fully known. Possible origins include Kurumpat (from Old Turkic *Qurum-pat, "ruling prince";
Old Turkic pat, "chieftain", either directly borrowed from Iranian pat, "ruler" or evolved from Old Turkic baş, "head, leader"). Qurum (from Old Turkic qurum, "rule, leadership, administration") in the form of Krum is attested to in the royal Bulgar princes lines as well as in the Greek traditions as a designation of Bulgar Khans. It has been suggested that Krumbates could also be composed of Iranian -bat, from Iranian pat, "ruler"; cf. Persian pād, "master".
