This is the last part in our series on the daughters of Chinggis Khan, focusing on his youngest daughter with Börte, Altalun and her half-sisters Altun Beki and Alaljin Beki. Full of conspiracy, murder and difficult efforts to arrange a marriage to the Uyghur Royal house.
Previous Parts on the other daughters: Overview and Summary: ua-cam.com/video/LMFIb4EhYxQ/v-deo.html Introduction, and discussion of Börte and Qojin Beki: ua-cam.com/video/_WPjeDT4Fg0/v-deo.html Discussing Chechiyegen, Alaqa Beki and Tümelün: ua-cam.com/video/rnGRHJpwLls/v-deo.html
greed of the imperial family. Mongols after Chinggis Khan was no different than many other imperial families. This was the #1 catalyst for their demise as a unified force. It’s a shame bc Chinggis Khan built them up from nothing. But Greed blinded them all.
Glad you enjoyed it! The sources as a whole barely give information on his actual khatuns besides a) who their children were and b) how Chinggis acquired them. Börte is the only one we have substantial information on, and even still she is no longer named in the sources after about 1210 or so. For the other women, the accounts basically have no interest in them whatsoever, which is unfortunate for our purposes.
Wonder how was marriage dynamic between Chikü and Tümelün. When they fought, Did Chikü call her as frog and Temelün warning him not to end up like his father ?
Buenísima serie, I loved it! I told my mother about Atwood's postulated explanation of how Chikü married Tümelün after her father's shameful death, and she said "what a weird story".... I guess she will say something similar to me when I try to explain to her the story of Altun Beki and Alajin Beki hahahaha.
Glad to see you are back! I use to follow you religiously until you left for your studies. I see you made a lot of videos the past 2 years, looks like I have a lot of Binging to do. Would like to see you talk about Genghis Bastard Sons. That is if there is any information about any of them, which I doubt there is
Yes the city in the Uyghur section is based off Beshbaliq, though I couldn't find any good indications of what 13th century Beshbaliq would have actually looked like so don't treat it as an exact reproduction. I took some inspiration from the few parts of 13th/14th century structures in the region that still survivie (such as Qara-Qoto). I will try to upload these to my various social media (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Deviant Art) over the next few weeks for people to download, but I can also email you a copy if you prefer.
Maybe on select women, like Sorqaqtani or Törögene Khatun. The information on most daughters-in-law is very sparse in the vast majority of cases and consists of just a name, if that. While there is certainly interesting data there, most of it probably won't translate well into video format.
Another question, what does it mean Kase dashtan or presenting a Khan with a goblet? does it mean to serve Kamiz for a Khan? Is there a text that explains it completely?
I can assure you, most historians only hear of the 1211 as well. Very few people have ever actually bothered to look into the matter ( I myself had never though too much about it until I began researching this project)

Loved the series, Jackmeister, i learned alot!
1 question tho. Why did they not write the names of Gengiss other wives?
@@Howyoullappear-eb8vo I suppose it's because they were no khatuns.

Your mother is a patient woman! I do not think my mother would really comprehend it too well either.
Shared a bunch of links to your Khutulun video on all the other youtube videos of her because yours is the only good one
Very kind of you to do, but there's no need to spam people with links to them!

Uighurs 😍 where can i download your paintings of the uighurs? Is the city you painted beşbalık?

@@TheJackmeisterMongolHistorythank you! Looking forward to getting copies
Will you do a video on Genghis daughters in law??
Maybe on select women, like Sorqaqtani or Törögene Khatun. The information on most daughters-in-law is very sparse in the vast majority of cases and consists of just a name, if that. While there is certainly interesting data there, most of it probably won't translate well into video format.
@@TheJackmeisterMongolHistory fair enough, but a video on those two would be awesome
Another question, what does it mean Kase dashtan or presenting a Khan with a goblet? does it mean to serve Kamiz for a Khan? Is there a text that explains it completely?
Is there any English translation of Sheybani nama of Sheybak khan?
Would like to see more of the author live not just audio.thanks
I had no idea the uighur marriages were so confusing... I only had heard of the marriage in 1211.
I can assure you, most historians only hear of the 1211 as well. Very few people have ever actually bothered to look into the matter ( I myself had never though too much about it until I began researching this project)
