Namagan patrimony

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Tatar princes of the late 15th century understood the Namagan patrimony to be a kinship group that controlled the Great Horde in the southern Volga region . The state was the remaining rump state of the Golden Horde .

The term was u. a. Used in 1490 by the Khan of Crimea , Mengli Giray and in 1494 by Ibaq, the Khan of Sibir in their correspondence to differentiate themselves from the Namagan kin.

The rise of the family group began with Temür Qutlugh around 1395. This prince was a refugee at the court of the Central Asian conqueror Timur Lenk and returned to the Golden Horde after the defeat of the khan Toktamisch against Timur Lenk (1391 and 1395). Behind him stood the Emir Edigü , who dominated the politics of the Horde in the early 15th century and whose descendants (the so-called Nogaier or Mangit Horde ) continued to support the Namagan patrimony.

A certain Numkan or Timur-Namagan is considered to be the ancestor of the Namagan patrimony. There is uncertainty about the more distant ancestors. This group includes the following khans:

  • Temür Qutlugh 1391, 1395–1401 (son of Temür Malik, grandson of Urus Khan)
  • Schadi Beg 1401–1407 (son of Temür Malik (?))
  • Bolod / Pulad 1407–1410 (son of Temür Malik (?))
  • Temür 1410/12 (son of Temür Qutlugh)
  • Kücük Mehemed 1435–1459 / 65 (son of Temür, grandson of Temür Qutlugh)
  • Mahmud 1459/65 (son of Kücük Mehemed)
  • Ahmed 1459 / 65-1481 (son of Kücük Mehemed)
  • Saih Ahmed 1481–1502 (son of Ahmed)
    • Co-regent: Murteza, Sajjid Ahmed (Saih Ahmed's brothers)
    • Qasim, founder of Astrakhan Khanate (son of Mahmud)
