Arltan Bashaev Biography

Arltan Baskhaev in the series “Renaissance: Ertugrul” whose action takes place in anatolia of the 13th century, on the eve of the founding of the Ottoman Empire, there is one character-“Warrior with an ax” Turgut Alp Alp-today in modern Turkey has turned into a name of its own, but at the time when the action of the series unfolds, the prefix “ALP” meant “Hero”, “Khrobly”.

Ertugrul Ertogrul was the leader of a small group of nomads of the tents of the cucumber-Turkmen tribe of Kai Pravda, V. Markvart, V. Bartold and a number of other researchers suggest that this tribe was originally origin. Oruj-Bek Persian historian of the 16th century wrote: "Osman's father, as they say, was very low: a simple soldier named Ertogrul." The Turkish historical tradition says that the Seljuk ruler Alaeddin Kay-Cubad granted Ertogrula Udzh The outskirts of the Sultanate in the lot.

All Ottoman sources retell this legend in various versions. The Udge of Ertogrula bordered the Byzantine lands of the Nicene Empire, which made it possible to raid for enriching Christians on the lands. This opportunity attracted extraction seekers in the detachments of Ertogrul. Perhaps one of these warriors was a “warrior with an ax” - Turgut Alp. He was very close to Ertugrul.

After the death of the latter, Turgut remained faithful to his son and heir Osman, the founder of the Ottoman Empire, and was his assistant in the government. For his military exploits, lands consisting of several villages were granted to him, which were called Turgut, the land of Turgut. After the death of Turgut, his symbolic grave was erected next to the grave of Ertugrul and his son Osman I.

The Turgut was weapons of the Turgut, which is now stored in the museum. The ax had a length of 92 cm and a weight of 1.65 kg. It is believed that this is one of the most severe combat axes now known. True, I do not exclude the fact that the ax stored in the museum is a replica. It was precisely because he was armed not by a sword or a saber, but by an ax, Turgut began to call a “warrior with an ax” for some reason for me, he echoes with Savr heavy-handed from the epic “Dzhangar”.

And whether the “Turgut waterfall” in Turkey is named his honor - one of the places of pilgrimage for tourists. Turgut is a small village located about 30 kilometers in the southwest of Marmaris and 9 kilometers from the neighboring village of Bayir. Such names are as if you are not in Turkey, but who is he, the Turgut Alp, the “warrior with the ax” was unknown by origin ...

According to Turkish traditions, his family was allegedly tortured by the Mongols and the remaining orphan, he joined the soldiers of Ertugul. But is he not a “Mongol” or “oyrat” himself? The doctor of hysterical sciences B. Kitinov writes in one of his articles: “In the fall, G. as follows from his surname, and Turkhan speaks about this, he considers himself by the origin of the trading - a descendant of the selected warriors of Genghis Khan, who later compiled one of the ethnic groups of the Oirates.

Torgates arrived in front Asia together with other regiments of Hulag-the grandson of Genghis Khan, who founded the state of Il Khanov in Persia. ” But not all Oirats went away. Later in the XIV century, they still actively participated in the life of Persia, but I can write a separate post about this. The departure of Neion Targai with part of the Oirats in Egypt and their future fate has information from different authors.

Rashid ad-Din wrote: “... suddenly the news came that Taragai-Gurgen, Emir Oiratov, who was in Diyarbecra and those parts, with the emirs of Yisute and Bahadur, with property and thousands of the Oiratic Territory, moved to the Syrian Territory. Emir Mulae went to prevent them, but they defeated him and left. ” His leader Targay, taking part in the murder of Geihat, was frightened by Gazan’s power and moved with his people, they say, there were 18 thousand kibettes to Syria, where they were well received by the Mamluk Sultan Ketbug, but Ketbuk was overthrown next year, and his successor Lachin ordered the Targai to kill.

The Oirats were settled in various provinces, who were under the rule of the Mamluks, but everywhere, and mainly in Cairo, their sons sought to get into the house as pages, and daughters as concubines; Both of them and others because of their wonderful beauty. ” Modern essays report that “in the year a large group of OIrats, Mongol refugees arrived in the Levant.

They were headed by Turgai, son-in-law Hulag Khan. They fled to the Levant from Gazan. While some of the Oirat group were warmly received in Cairo Kitbuga, and then lived in the Cairo district of Alkhisinia, others were settled in the coastal cities of the Levant. The Oirats were not Muslims, but after they married Egyptian emirs, and then with the Egyptian commoners, they turned to Islam and merged with the Egyptian society.

” But after all, one of those who left, especially from the rearguard, could not have time to get in Egypt, but were forced to leave for Asia Minor.

It’s just that 18 thousand wagons are some kind of not very even number, but if you add 2,200 perhaps the remaining in the rearguard, it turns out exactly 2 tumes of 20 thousand soldiers and their families. And who knows who was Turgut, who received the nickname "Hero"?Oirat or Mongol from Hulaguid Iran or somehow brought the Mongolian Oirat ???
