Bihar (Khazar)

Bihar was a Khagan of the Khazars during the 730s.^[1] Bihar succeeded Barjik as the Khagan in 732, most likely after a regency under Parsbit, indicating that Bihar was underage at the time. However some sources claim that Khazars practiced regicide ^{[citation needed]} which makes it impossible for an infant-khagan to rule.
