Besides these were other Khatuns, who, although not considered so high in rank or position, were nevertheless treated with great reverence, and sometimes would monopolize the company of their husband. One of these was Anikah Khatun, daughter of the Jakambu, also written Jankabu, the brother of the Awang Khan. His name is said to have been Badae. After the overthrow and death of his brother, he took shelter in Tingkut, where he obtained protection, and was treated with honour. The Badshah of that country gave him the title of Jakambu, equivalent to “Dsambu,” in Degum Dsambu,” and Mathi Dsambu,” etc., in Tibbati titles. Jakambu signifies Amir-i-Mu’azzam,” and ‘‘ Buzurg-i-Mamlakat.” The Chingiz Khan espoused her, and married one of her sisters, named Bihtumish Kuchin, to his son, Juji, and another, Siurghuktiti Bigi, to Tuli, and all four sons of Tuli Khan were by her. After the Chingiz Khan had married Anikah a few days only, in consequence of a dream which he had, he gave her in marriage to one of his Amirs, the Nu-yin, Gahti, also called Gati the Ura-ut [he is turned into “ a on the borders of China, » in the ‘‘ Mongols Proper !], who happened to be the Amir in waiting that night.
