Rubruquis, who reached Mangu’s urdu in January, 1254 A. D. — the last month of 651 H. — and was present during these executions, says that three hundred lords, besides ladies, perished. He describes Mangu Ka’an as being of middle stature, flat-nosed, and about forty-five years old. “He sat on a bed \[couch\], and was clad with a robe of spotted fur, which shined like seal-skin. His wife \[one of his wives\], who was a little pretty woman, sat by him; and, on another couch near, sat one of his daughters \[by his chief Khatun\], named Shirin, grown up, but exceedingly hard favoured, and several little children; for that being her \[Shirin’s\] mother’s urdu (a Christian lady whom the Khan was very fond of), she was mistress of it. On the 14th of January, the Khan’s chief wife Kotola Katen \[the name of the Khan’s chief wife was Khankae Khatun\] attended the Christian chapel with her children.” - [Previous: 286.3.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.286.3.2) - [Next: 286.3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.286.3.4) - [Up: 286.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.286.3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.286.3.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.sultanate.tabaqat-i-nasiri~en-raverty.286.3.3) · Pramāṇa
