The Brutakhi were a Jewish polity of uncertain location and origin during the early 13th century.
Some translations read "Comani Brutakhi", which seems to indicate an alignment with the Kipchaks; however, this reading has been challenged by many historians who have asserted that there should be a comma between the Comani and Brutakhi.
Some scholars have speculated that "Brutakhi" may be a corruption of "Brutas" or "Burtas", a steppe tribe of uncertain ethnic affiliation mentioned by other medieval sources.

 Brutakhi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Giovanni di Plano Carpini, a 13-century papal legate to the court of the Mongol Khan Guyuk, gave a list of the nations the Mongols had conquered in his account.
One of them, listed among tribes of the Caucasus, Pontic steppe and the Caspian region, was the "Brutakhi, who are Jews."
Another possibility is that the Brutakhi are connected to the Mountain Jews of Daghestan, who are believed to have ruled independent states at points in their history.

The Juhuri may be the people referred to as "Brutakhi" by Fra Giovanni di Carpini, a Papal legate who visited the Mongol Khan Guyuk in the 1250's.
Giovanni included them among a list of nations who paid homage to the Mongol Khan, and added that they were Jews who traditionally shaved their heads.
