Like the Oghuz Book of Dede Korkut, an older and anonymous Central Asian epic, the Turkish folklore that inspired Yunus Emre in his occasional use of tekerlemeler as a poetic device had been handed down orally to him and his contemporaries.

For example, the Book of Dede Korkut, the historical epic of the Oghuz Turks, was written from the ninth and tenth centuries.

According to the Book of Dede Korkut which demonstrates the culture of the Oghuz Turks, women were " expert horse riders, archers, and athletes.

Book of Dede Korkut -

The Book of Dede Korkut and the Epic of Köroğlu have been the main elements of the Turkish epic tradition in Anatolia for several centuries.

Subsequent to this period, between the 9th and 11th centuries, there arose among the nomadic Turkic peoples of Central Asia a tradition of oral epics, such as the Book of Dede Korkut of the Oghuz Turks — the linguistic and cultural ancestors of the modern Turkish people — and the Manas epic of the Kyrgyz people.

The Turkish epic has its roots in the Central Asian epic tradition that gave rise to the Book of Dede Korkut ; written in Azeri-and recognizably similar to modern Turkish-the form developed from the oral traditions of the Oghuz Turks ( a branch of the Turkic peoples which migrated towards western Asia and eastern Europe through Transoxiana, beginning in the 9th century ).

The Book of Dede Korkut endured in the oral tradition of the Oghuz Turks after settling in Anatolia .. Alpamysh is an earlier epic, translated into English and available online.

The Book of Dede Korkut was the primary element of the Azerbaijani-Turkish epic tradition in the Caucasus and Anatolia for several centuries.

Concurrent to the Book of Dede Korkut was the so-called Epic of Köroğlu, which concerns the adventures of Rüşen Ali (" Köroğlu ", or " son of the blind man ") as he exacted revenge for the blinding of his father.

The origins of this epic are somewhat more mysterious than those of the Book of Dede Korkut: many believe it to have arisen in Anatolia sometime between the 15th and 17th centuries ; more reliable testimony, though, seems to indicate that the story is nearly as old as that of the Book of Dede Korkut, dating from around the dawn of the 11th century.
