The Yörük (Turkey)

The Yörük people are a semi-nomadic Turkic group, originally from the Central Anatolian Plateau in Turkey. Traditionally, the Yörük people were sheep herders who lived in tents and moved with the seasons between summer pastures and winter settlements. Though many Yörük have now settled in villages, a number still follow the traditional nomadic lifestyle, living in tents and herding sheep in the mountainous regions of Turkey.
