Tuqay Timurids
The term Tuqay-Timuriden (also Tūqāy-Timūriden ) is understood in a narrower sense as a Genghisid lineage, which became very powerful in Transoxania from 1599 . Generally speaking, the term refers to all male descendants of Tuqa Timur , the thirteenth son of Jötschis and grandson of Genghis Khan .
For a long time the Tuqay Timurids were overshadowed by the Scheibanid dynasty , widely regarded as being of higher rank.
In the 16th century a Tuqay-Timurid family ruled the Ryazan region .
In 1599 Baki Mohammad defeated the Scheibanid Pir Muhammad and thus ended the Scheibanid tradition in the Bukhara Khanate and established the ruling house of the Janids .
This rule was ended by the conquest of Nader Shah in 1740.
