Khan Kuber (Кубер in Bulgarian, also spelled Kuver) was a Bulgar leader from the 7th century who belonged to the same clan as the Danubian Bulgarian khan Asparukh - they both were sons of khan Kubrat. When Great Bulgaria collapsed under the attacks of the Khazars, Kuber lead one of the fractions of the Bulgar people from their former settlements in present-day Ukraine. The Bulgars led by Kuber travelled first to Pannonia and settled in the region of Srem, which was part of the Avar Khaganate. The Kuber was nominated by the Avars to rule over Srem as Avar vassal, but he started a rebelion against Avars, and, together with his people, moved from Srem around 680 AD and settled in the Balkans, in the Pelagonian plain in western Macedonia. There is not enough information about Khan Kouber and his people following the settlement in the western Balkans but Asparukh's son, Tervel, in the beginning of the 8th century, is said to have cooperated with "his uncles" from Macedonia. By the early 9th century the lands that Kouber settled had been incorporated into the First Bulgarian Empire. Кубер Хан Кубер Кувер
