Rulers of Gīlān

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  15 March 2011

In a former paper I dealt with the rulers of Lāhijān and Fūman in Gīlān, and now give an account of the remaining local dynasties and petty rulers of that province. The sources from which I have gathered my information have already been mentioned.

There is a mistake on p. 94 of this paper, 1. 12 ; for Abu'n-nasr ibn Is-ḥāq read Abu'n-nasr ibn Fanākhusraw ibn Shujā‘ ibn Arkān ibn Fanākhusraw ibn Arkān ibn Dubbāj ibn Ḥabash ibn Khālū ibn Sīristān ibn Is-ḥāq.

page 280 note 1 The descendants of Mīr Muṣṭafā Khān of Ṭālish assert that the ancestor of the present Khāns of Kargānrūd was Mīrākhūr, or master of the horse, of Mīr Muṣṭafā Khān. The Khāns of Kargānrūd deny this and claim that their clan has ruled their district for over four centuries. They state that they resided in Āarbāyjān, a former town of Kargānrūd, and belong to the Ashik Harazūr, a clan of Armenian or Georgian origin.

It was known as the Sālāriyya dynasty and was wiped out by the Saljūqs.
