Bogatyr Neznay (Russian: Богатырь Незнай) is a folktale collected from a Bashkir source by ethnographer Aleksandr G. Bassonov. It deals with a friendship between a merchant's son and a magic horse that are forced to flee for their lives due to the boy's own mother, and reach another kingdom, where the boy adopts another identity by only uttering the words "Ne znayu" ("I don't know").
