Abdurashid Khan (also Abdarshtu , Abdershtu , Obdurshtu ) - the short-term ( 1680 - 1682 ) ruler of Turfan and Chalysh (modern Karashar ) in East Turkestan ( Mogulistan ) [1] .
History
One of the Genghisides , was the son of Babahan and a descendant of Khan Chagatai . It was he who managed to turn Turpan into a virtually independent inheritance, in which many opponents of the Yarkend authorities of that time found refuge. He became famous in Russia due to references in the annals of the Siberian order [2] . In the spring of 1691, envoys from Galdan Boshoktu Khan arrived to the Irkutsk governor L.K. Kislyansky in Ilyinsky Sloboda, who, taking the post of head of the Dzungar Khanate, decided to end the rebellious inheritance and after the siege took his ruler ( Abdurashid Khan ) captive his wife. The new ruler, the Dzungar, created the captive Abdurashid Khan quite acceptable living conditions: the prisoner was paid a thousand lan of silver a year, and also covered the cost of food and livestock . Moreover, the brother of Abdurashid Khan Mamandimin Khan was appointed the ruler of the seized inheritance. Former subjects of the khan were allowed to continue to visit him for many years after the completion of his short reign:
| “Abkhurshtu-khan and his wife were with Bukhukhtu-khan of Bukhara’s Irkensky, and he was taken by war with an attack on the city 10 years ago, and 40 cities were taken to Irkensk, and Bushuht-khan owns them. And from those cities, Bushukhtu-khan emits their tribute to himself, but otherwise, he sends the same tribute to the Dalai Lama, in which he, Bushukhtu-khan, believes. And in Yrkensky, he was planted from Bushukhtu Khan by the khan Mamandimin Khan and ordered to own and repair it with Irkensky and other cities, and all the towns are stone. And that de Mamandimin-khan of Khan’s brother of the Irkensky Abdurshtu-khan brother. And the fodder from Bushukhtu khan goes to that stubby Abderstu-khan for a year at a thousand thousand flocks of silver, also other feed and cattle, and from Yrkensky-de to him, Obdursht-khan, the former Evo boyars and Bukhara come freely ” . |
