Shibani Khan

Shibani Khan , also Shelbani (or Sayban , Mongolian ᠱᠢᠪᠠᠨ Schiban , Uzbek Шайбон , † 1266 ) was the son Dschötschis a younger brother Batu's and ancestor of various princes of Siberia .

Battle of Muhi , 1241, between the Mongols (left) under Shibani and the Hungarians (right), from the 13th century.

Shibani took part as one of the Mongolian princes in Batu's campaigns (especially the battle of Muhi against Hungary). Then he became the prince of the so-called White Horde , whose areas were in southwestern Siberia. As a northern neighbor he had the Orda Horde , which was led by his older brother Orda . The western neighbor was Batu's Blue Horde . In practice, however, these domains can hardly be separated from one another, since the use of names is not always clear and some princes in the late 14th and early 15th centuries also sought control over their neighbors.

His descendants ruled Siberia until the 15th century. Shibani Khan was named after the later Scheibanid dynasty in the 15th century , which provided various princes of the Uzbeks ( Mohammed Scheibani ) and Siberia ( Khanate Sibir ).
