“Ye-Lie-ban, ruler of the Russian tribe”
Objective: An attempt is made to explain the identity of “The Rus’ tribe’s ruler, Ye-lie-ban,” described in the Chinese-language primary sources from the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. Departing from past attempts to connect this figure to Yuri II of Vladimir or any individual at all, this article presents the argument that Ye-lie-ban originally referred to the city of Ryazan. Research materials: Primary sources were used, foremost among th…
Later Rumors of Mongol Defeat in Europe in the Mid-Thirteenth Century
Europe that were recorded in both Western European and Russian sources in the decades and centuries following his invasion of Europe in 1241–1242. Het’um’s La Flor des Estoires de la Terre d’Orient (1307) contains a clearly inaccurate description of Batu drowning during an attempted Mongol invasion of Austria. Fifteenth-century Russian chronicles and a hagiographic text separately report on Batu being slain in Hungary by a saintly king, “Vladisla…
The Horde
Marie Favereau's The Horde: How the Mongols Changed the World aims to provide a new history of the Golden Horde by providing an overview of its political history, its place in the wider Eurasian trade system, its societal development, and its eventual dissolution. The author achieves an ostensible goal of conveying the cosmopolitan character of the Horde and its historical legacy. The book's scope is so vast that it is not always clear if it is a…
Mongol inroads into Hungary in the thirteenth century
In Zimonyi’s view, the Mongolian account reflects an anachronism. In any case, his convincing demonstration that Buri did attack Transylvania in 1241 and took German miners from the region into his service represents an effort to clear up some of the ongoing confusion in scholarship about these events. In the last decade, Sarolta Tatar devoted an entire study to summarize the routes of the Mongol entry into Hungary, systematically comparing and a…
Climatic and Environmental Limiting Factors in the Mongol Empire’s Westward Expansion
From its formation in the early years of the thirteenth century, the Mongol Empire expanded rapidly along the steppe belt and trade routes comprising the Silk Road, forming partnerships with merchants and encouraging commerce, while also subjugating the resident nomadic and sedentary societies. In 1241–1242, the Mongols invaded and occupied Hungary for a year before mysteriously withdrawing eastward into the steppes. Many theories have been offer…
Nationes que se Tartaros appellant”
Objective: An attempt is made to explain why Mongols were so often referred to as Tatars in thirteenth-century primary sources and to offer a new interpretation of how the usage of both ethnonyms evolved over the course of the Mongol Empire's expansion and dissolution
Subutai
Subutai [Sübe’etei], often referred to as the greatest of the Mongol Empire’s generals, has increasingly become a topic of popular interest. However, the literature about him continues to rely on secondary sources so that popular and scholarly work alike often contains and perpetuates ahistorical statements regarding his origins and his military career. Based on the assumption that many errors have been perpetuated because Chinese source material…
The Last Campaign and Death of Jebe Noyan
Despite Jebe Noyan's importance to the expansion of Chinggis Khan's empire, the Mongol general remains a shadowy figure. In part this stems from the absence of any biography of Jebe in the Yuan Shi and much uncertainly surrounds when, and in what circumstances, he died. Here the argument is made that the Novgorod First Chronicle provides a description of Jebe's capture and death at the hands of the Kipchaks during the 1223 campaign which culminat…
