K., assassinated 1159 H., 1746-7. ‡ Turra, waving ringlets, or the hanging end of a turban; Turra-i-baz, 'a falcon's crest.' Zafar Khan and all his men wore their turbans in the same way, with an end sticking out, and from this peculiarity the nickname arose. Khush-hal Chand, 403b, explains that the turra were of gold and silk brocade (badalah), and were used extensively as ornaments to Zafar Khan's equipage. In lot No. 698 in B. Quaritch's catalogue, No. 161.
