Yuli County as the official Romanized name, also transliterated from Mongolian as Lopnur County (Lop Nur), is a county in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region and is under the administration of the Bayin'gholin Mongol Autonomous Prefecture. It contains an area of 59,399 km2 (22,934 sq mi). According to the 2002 census, it has a population of 100,000.
Etymology
The etymology was discussed in detail in the article On the Place Name Yuli and Rouran (尉犁地名和柔然源流考) by Li Shuhui (李树辉).
The name Yuli was postulated to have come from Turkic (J)yrægir ("one who is stationed; one who stays"), the name of a Turkic clan, and derived from yræ-(verb form yryk, "to be stationed in") + -gir (adjectival suffix).
Both (J)yrægir and yryk were said to be recorded in the ancient dictionary Dīwān Lughāt al-Turk, although the exact Arabic-script forms are unknown, perhaps اُرَكِرْ Üregir, يُرَكِرْ Yüregir, the 15th clan of the Oghuz.[citation needed]
History
In 2016, Tuanjie was upgraded from a township to a town.[5]
In 2018, Xingping was upgraded from a township to a town.[6]
Geography
