'Esegels' (or ''Äsägel'') were Eurasian nomads, that joined the Volga Bulgaria state and were assimilated to Bolgars. They were probably of Turkic or perhaps Ugric origin. They are supposed to have originated from Central Asian tribe Chigil or Ishkil. Their living in Volga Bulgaria in 9th-10th centuries was also mentioned at ibn Fadlan.
According to some theories , the modern Szeklers are a branch of the Esegels.
