Uzbeks and Kazakhs in Fazl Allah Khunji’s Mihmannamah-i Bukhara

View through CrossRef
This chapter looks at another Persian historian, Fazl Allah b. Ruzbihan Khunji (d. 1519), in his journey to Central Asia and his attempt to justify the Uzbek ruler Shibani Khan (d. 1510) in his disastrous campaign against the Kazakhs of Turkestan. Fazl Allah had to project onto his master’s kinsmen/enemies all the negative associations of a Turkic ancestry in order to justify their murder and enslavement. However, this projection created difficulties for the author as well because he knew that his Shibanid patrons were actually related to the Kazakhs across the river in Turkestan. Thus even in Central Asia itself, Turco-Mongol origins were problematic.
