Abstract

Nadvid talks about the following historical figures: Kho Orlyuk, Dalai Baatr, Donduk Ombo Khan, Guvzh Dorzh Noyon Khan, Ayuka Khan and Mazan Baatr. Kho Orlyuk had 7 territorial units, whereas Dalai Baatr had only 1. In 1609, the two signed an agreement but soon afterwards fell out with each other. In 1623 in the Year of the Rabbit, Dalai Baatr separated from the rest and took his people with him. He built a temple in a place called Okn Gazryn Kobe Tosn Bura and invited monks from Tibet. In 1648, he again migrated to another place. In 1704 a nobleman came to Kalmykia from China accompanied by his 2 sons. The youngest son was called Guvzh Dorzh Noyon Khan. 4 years later this nobleman died during a battle in the Caucasus. His younger brother called Gal Tomr took custody of the orphaned children. The Kalmyk Ayuka Khan was the contemporary of Peter the Great. Guvzh Dorzh Noyon Khan also lived at that time. Ayuka Khan was married to a Kalmyk woman. Later he married a Kabardian woman. In the Caucasus, there was a strong but stupid man called Ishtg Emin Arvn Dolat who wanted to be a khan. In order to get rid of him the elders decided to pit him against Mazan Baatr by asking the stupid man to steal Mazan Baatr’s horses. He was killed by Mazan Baatr.
