Georgius Tzul (Georgeios or Georgios) was a Khazar warlord against whom the Byzantine Empire and Mstislav of Tmutarakan launched a joint expedition in 1016. He appears only in the account of the Byzantine court historians Kedrenos and John Skylitzes, who place him at Kerch and calls him "khagan" (the title of the Khazar emperors). Kedrenos states that he was captured by the expeditionary force but does not relate his ultimate fate.

  • Georgius Tzul (Georgeios or Georgios) was a Khazar warlord against whom the Byzantine Empire and Mstislav of Tmutarakan launched a joint expedition in 1016. He appears only in the account of the Byzantine court historians Kedrenos and John Skylitzes, who place him at Kerch and calls him "khagan" (the title of the Khazar emperors). Kedrenos states that he was captured by the expeditionary force but does not relate his ultimate fate. Inscriptions and other references exist referring to a Tzul or Tsal clan in Crimea during this period; presumably he was a member although the relationship of that family to the original ruling dynasty of Khazaria is unknown. Almost nothing else about him, including the extent of his holdings, is known. Despite the fact that earlier writers maintained that the Khazar khagan was required to adhere to Judaism, Georgius is a Christian name. Whether Georgius Tzul was himself a Christian, a Jew or shamanist with an unusual Greek name, or whether the name is merely a Byzantine attempt to transliterate a Turkic or Hebrew name, is unknown. It is worth noting that Byzantine campaigns occurred roughly during this period against the Georgians and Bulgars, suggesting a concerted effort to re-establish Byzantine dominance in the Black Sea region.
  • Георгий Цуло — стратиг Херсона, мятежный военачальник хазарского происхождения. Был разбит объединённым византийско-русским войском в 1016. По данным Георгия Кедрина, византийский полководец Андроник в 1016 году пристал к берегам Крыма, соединился с войском русского князя Сфенга, который назван братом Владимира (вероятно, речь должна идти о Мстиславе Владимировиче) и в самом первом сражении взял в плен Георгия Цула. Цуло в этом сообщении называется хазарским каганом. На этом основании его иногда считают последним хазарским правителем, а конфликт, соответственно, последней войной Хазарии со своими старыми противниками. Однако такая трактовка была опровергнута в результате обнаружения в Крыму в ходе археологических раскопок печати с надписью «Георгию Цуло, царскому протосапфарию и стратигу Херсона». Отсюда видно, что Цуло был византийским чиновником, судя по имени - христианином. Однако вторая половина имени выдаёт его хазарское происхождение.
  • Georgius Tzul, Hazar Kağanlığı'nın son kağanı. 1016'ya kadar kağan olarak kalmıştır ve sonrasında ise, Hazar Kağanlığı yıkılmıştır. Georgius ise, bir Hıristiyan adıdır. 1016-1019 yılları arasında Bizans'la işbirliği yapan Ruslar, Hazarlara saldırarak onların Tmutarakan'daki Hazar toprakları 1016-1019 yılları arasında Bizans imparatoru II. Bazil'in gönderdiği donanmanın yardımıyla Kiev Knezi I. Svyatopolk tarafından zaptedilmiştir. Bu savaştan Hazarların son hakanı olan Georgius Tzul esir edilmiştir. Hakan Hıristiyanlığı kabul ederek Arbon unvanını almıştır. Çernigovlu Mstislav bundan sonra Tmutarakan'ın da knezi olmuştur.
