Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to analyze the information from Tarikh-i-Rashidi regarding the history of the Golden
Horde. The main material of the study was the complete translation of Tarikh-i-Rashidi, carried out in the 1990s and revised in
the 2010s. Five theses are proposed: the nomadic population of
the Golden Horde; the number of nomads who migrated with
Muhammad Sheibani; the identity of the Mogul Dughlat and
Kazakh Dulat tribes; the fate of Juchid Buruj-Oglan, killed between 1472-1473, and the Kazakh population. According to
Tarikh-i-Rashidi, the number of Kazakhs reached one million
people, but at some point, they completely disappeared from
the face of the earth. But as the geopolitical situation changed,
the Kazakhs returned to the historical arena. There was no
physical disappearance of Kazakhs in the sixteenth century.
