[383] Called Unghermaumet in Zeno. [384] Amurath Palæologus. [385] Knolles, in his _History of the Turks_, says that a great Pasha Mahomet was assassinated by the janissaries on the accession of Bajazet II to the throne, but makes no mention of this incident. [386] Baiboort. See Zeno, p. 26. [387] Tabeada. [388] How this happened it is not easy to understand, as Zeno says the Persian king pursued the Turks with only a flying column. [389] Zeno says fourteen thousand. [390] Shiraz; it has still a great manufacture of sword-blades and armour. [391] See p. 89. Eustraf? [392] Baiboort. [393] Erzeroum or Erzingan. [394] Shebban Kara Hissar. [395] Called Darap by Zeno. [396] Sanjak. [397] Koili, or Koyumlu Hissar. [398] Niksar. [399] Shiraz, a far more important town then than it is now. [400] Kerman. [401] Syria. [402] Khaleel and Yakoob. [403] Angiolello had evidently by this time left the Turkish camp and joined the Persians. [404] Gori. [405] Tiflis, the present capital of Russian Trans-Caucasia, on the river Kur, was founded in 1063. It has a population of fifty thousand, and, under the Russian sway, has become almost like a European town. [406] Padishah. [407] Khaleel is generally called the eldest of Uzun Hassan’s sons. [408] Amida, present Diarbekr. [409] Orfa. See _Travels of a Merchant_, cap. 2. [410] Birjik, or Bir, ancient Apamea. See _Travels of a Merchant_, cap. 2. [411] Baisongor. [412] Ahmed. [413] Eluan-Alwung, or Alumut, son of Sultan Yakoob. [414] Sheikh Hyder. [415] There were sons of Shah Yakoob living, namely, Aluan Beg and Morad Khan, who were more direct descendants of Uzun Hassan. [416] Ardebil. [417] The other authors give a different account; they expressly state that Sheikh Hyder was not up in arms against the king, whatever his ulterior object may have been, but was engaged in an expedition into Circassia. [418] Khoi. [419] Zeno says the battle took place near Derbend—far enough, certainly, from Van. [420] Ak Tammar, the Van Lake, so called by the Armenians. The island is, to this day, the seat of the Catholicos, and is fully described by Layard. [421] See above, where it is stated that their mother was married a second time; and page 105, where it is said Ismail put her to death. It is more probable that another of their father’s wives is denoted in these other cases. [422] Kara Bagh. [423] Schamachi. [424] Vide _Travels of a Merchant_, cap. 13. [425] Kur, or Cyrus. [426] Schamachi. [427] Zeno, p. 51, says he had only sixteen thousand men under him after being joined by the Georgians. [428] Diarbekr, the hereditary city of the Ak Koinloos. [429] Stepmother, according to Zeno, which is certainly more probable. [430] Morad Khan, brother of Aluan Beg. [431] Irak-el Ajim. [432] Ispahan, Yezd, and Shiraz. [433] Khorassan. [434] The other authors agree in stating that he escaped to Alla-ed Douleh’s country; at any rate, he was no further trouble to Ismail Sofi.
