Popis: The article deals with the result of the analysis of various lexical names of "boktag" according to various sources. Having studied a number of modern publications, the author has identified more than ten names of this headdress. The author tried to understand the roots of the issue of discordance in the description of boktag by different authors. Comparing the interpretation of the term, the author has identified several references to Mongolian and Chinese sources: shinbone and doing hair (as part of the wedding ritual), combing (hair setting), putting on a "widow's hat" (a certain action and a specific headdress). After analyzing the semantics and etymology of the word "boktag" in dictionaries and documents, the author came to the conclusion that it could be borrowed into the Mongolian language. Subsequently, this word was re-translated into the Turkic and Chagatai languages. And all the early mentioned differs are guttural occlusion.
