Origin of the name
Focusing on the work of the Mongolian language researcher Napil Bazylkhan, Alimgazy Dauletkhan left the following notes in the name of Chundzha: The last toponymic name of the fortress at the junction of nine roads, built by the heirs to the throne of Dschinghis Khan and monitoring the well-being of military and trade routes military (station, fire - means Lenger- Chundzha), came down to us as "Chundzha". “In modern Mongolian language occurs in the form of Conji. In the Kazakh language it is found as a toponym represented by "Шонжы". The meaning of the word "Conji" in the Mongolian language: 1. A high rock that guards from afar. 2. (figurative) Fortress; Fortification protecting the border areas”. Therefore, the word Conji translated into the Kazakh language are now used as "Chundzha" or “Шонжы”.[4] In East Turkestan, near the city of Urimсhi, there is a district called "Shonzhi" where local Kazakhs are densely populated.
According to a report made by russian colonel Nikolai Friederiks in 1869, toponym "Chundzja" comes from the name of chinese citizen Junji of taranchi tribe.[5]
