'''Aguk Shain''' was an 8th-century [[Chechens|Chechen]] commander in the [[Arab-Khazar Wars]].{{dubious|Chechens in the 8th century is an extremely dubious assertion, as they are not securely attested before the 16th century|date=February 2016}}<br />
<br />
Shain is mentioned in the book Yu Aidaeva "Chechens: Past and Present", where he is described as the head of the Chechen-auhovtsev (auharov), which was involved in the Khazar wars with the Arabs. He was, the author assumes, the second person in the Khazar army.<ref>Айдаев Ю. А. Чеченцы: история и современность. М.:" Мир дому твоему", 1996. С.193.</ref> In addition, excavations on the outskirts of the Giachalk (Khazar-Kala) village show that he had close economic ties with [[Akkins]] Khazars.<br />
<br />
Shain led some of the [[Khazar]] troops. This confirmed the inclusion of Chechens in the [[Khazars|Khazar Khanate]], to which they were loyal.{{citation needed|date=February 2016}}<br />
<br />
The 735–736 Arabic commander Nirvana managed to destroy the fortress "Hasni-Hisnumma" (Khazar-Kala) and capture the fortress auhovs "Kesh" ("Keshen" Keshne). These fortresses were inhabited by Chechens auhar (Akkins); however, he was then captured himself.<ref>Согласно книге [[Дербенд-наме]] под редакцией [[Алиханов-Аварский, Максуд|М. Алиханова-Аварского]] крепости пали именно в таком порядке.</ref>{{dubious|Marwan's 737 campaign (I assume he is meant by "Nirvana") is entirely different to anything described here|date=February 2016}}<br />
