in all, 1388 Commanders from 150 to 10. The number of the higher Mançabdars from 5000 to 200 is 412, of which about 150 may have been dead, when Abulfazl made his list.
As Abulfazl’s List (Ain 30), according to the testimony of Nizam i Harawi is a complete list, it is certain that of the 66 Mançabs of the following table, only 33 existed in reality. The first eighteen of these 33 are commands down to 500, which corresponds to the List of Sháhjahán’s grandees in the Pádisháhnámah, which likewise gives 18 commands to 500.
