More events are assigned to the period of Abu-Muslim than can be credited, and this is the period our author assigns to the rise of the Shansabanis of Ghur. The date given by Fasihi, for the birth of Bu-zanjar, is 186 years previous to the death of the Chingiz Khan's father, the eighth in descent from Bu-zanjar, an average of little more than twenty years to each, but 130 H. for the accession of Bu-zanjar gives an average, to the death of the Chingiz Khan’s father, of exactly fifty-four years to each reign. On the other hand Bu-zanjar was third in descent from Yal-duz or I-yal-duz. Bu-zanjar, who is styled Ka’an, framed laws and regulations, and divided the Mughals into tribes as they still existed at the period when the different authors I have named, with the exception of Abu-l-Ghazi, and Abu-l-Fazl, wrote their accounts. The Tarikh-i-Jahan-gir and a few other histories likewise state, that some of the Tattar chiefs and Amirs of other tribes which, for a long period of time, had been ruled by their own chiefs, now submitted to Bu-zanjar authority, and acknowledged his suzerainty, but this, it must be remembered, is a Mughal account. Bu-zanjar at his death, of which no date is given, left two sons, Buka—also written Bukka—and Bukae—and Tuka—also written Tukia—and Tukae—. The latter had a son named Ma-Chin.
