==Ethnonym== The tribal name comes from a location called Oglos or Onglos by the Byzantine chroniclers Theophanes the Confessor and Nikephoros I of Constantinople, possibly to be identified with Peuce Island. The word may derive from Slavic âgul 'corner', or, according to Steven Runciman, from agul 'enclosure'.
