Translation of information about Jochi and the khans of the Jochi ulus from the Turkiclanguage source Tavarikhi Guzidayi Nusrat-name

Abstract

In this article, extracts from the medieval Turkic-speaking source Tavarikhi Guzidayi
Nusrat-name are introduced into scientific circulation. These extracts concern the biography of Jochi, the
son of Genghis Khan, as well as the biographies and genealogies of various descendants of Jochi. The article
presents information about Batu, Berk, Mengu-Timur, Tuda-Mengu, Tula-Buk, Tokhta, Nogai. The object of
research in this article is extracts from the medieval source of the 16th century Tavarikhi Guzidayi Nusratname regarding the history of Ulus Jochi in the 13th-14th centuries. There are two copies of this source (St.
Petersburg and London). The St. Petersburg copy of Tavarikhi Guzidayi Nusrat-name regarding certain
aspects of the history of the Jochids was introduced into scientific circulation as early as 1969 as part of the
Materials on the History of the Kazakh Khanates. The London copy was not available to Soviet researchers
at that time, so it was not actively used in writing the critical text of the manuscript. Subsequently, in the
2010s, separate extracts from Tavarikhi Guzidayi Nusrat-name dedicated to Chagatai, Shiban, Abulkhair
Khan and other political figures of the 13th-15th centuries were published. In this article, we introduce
into scientific circulation previously unused extracts from Tavarikhi Guzidayi Nusrat-name regarding the
history of the Ulus of Jochi.
