Yarynak was the middle child in the family of Prince Kebegesh and Princess Ditasai.

== Reign ==
In 1757, when the [[Dzungar–Qing Wars#Final conquest of the Dzungars|Third Oirat-Manchurian War]] was in full swing and the inhabitants of the Altai Mountains were involved in the conflict, the Qing government recognized the power of Zaisan Yarynak in the [[Second Chui Volost]], and also demanded that people exclusively from the [[House of Ak-Kebek]] rule in this otok..<ref name="Швецов С.П.

Кочевники Бийского уезда|via=www.prlib.ru}}</ref> Also, the [[Qianlong Emperor]] equated Yarynak with officials of the third rank in China<ref name="Двоеданничество в Сибири. XVII — 60-е гг.

This partial subordination to China was a forced measure, since otherwise the residents of Chui were threatened with complete destruction or forced relocation. And already at the end of 1757, Qing tax collectors came to Yarynak's possessions.<ref name="Двоеданничество в Сибири. XVII — 60-е гг. XIX вв. / О. В. Боронин; Алт. гос. ун-т.

For this, the foreman Tangian, who betrayed his people, and the [[Dzungar Khanate|Dzungarian]] Zaisan Bohol attacked the Chui [[Telengits]], forcibly collected a tax from them, and took several Telengite families to China<ref name="Международные отношения в Центральной Азии.

In addition, Yarynak's subjects paid taxes to [[Russian Empire|Russia]], while also not accepting Russian citizenship.<ref name="Самаев Г. П. «ГОРНЫЙ АЛТАЙ В XVII — СЕРЕДИНЕ XIX В.: ПРОБЛЕМЫ ПОЛИТИЧЕСКОЙ ИСТОРИИ И ПРИСОЕДИНЕНИЯ К РОССИИ».

In 1763, [[Catherine II]] signed a decree according to which Altai Zaisans, including Yarynak, began to be considered majors in Russia.<ref name="Потапов, Леонид Павлович - Очерки по истории алтайцев. Page 183."/>
== In the legends ==
There is a legend about how Prince Yarynak created divisions of the [[Kipchaks]] family. One day Yarynak was returning from Mongolia with his army. Crossing to the left bank of the [[Khovd River|Kobdo River]], he arranged a three-day rest. During the break, Yarynak decided to arrange a big feast, at which, with the help of meat distribution, he had to divide, paying attention to the merits, the warriors into tribal units. Those who got the neck of the horse were called Yalchy-Kipchak, and those who were given meat from the horse's back – Ak-Kipchak. Those who were honored to receive the kyyma began to be called Kedenchi-Kipchak.<ref name="Бедюров, Бронтой Янгович - Слово об Алтае : История. Фольклор. Культура.
