For Samānjī we often find in MSS. Samājī. The Turkish samān means hay, so that Samānjī, or Samānchī would mean one who looks after the hay.
The name of this grandee is neither given in the Maāsir, nor the Tabaqāt. Nor have I come across his name in the Akbarnāmah. It remains, therefore, doubtful whether he is the son of No. 58.
Another Samānjī Khān will be found below, No. 147.
