Abstract
The paper presents the results of the study of a small manuscript on the history of the Crimean Khanate, known under the conventional title of “A Brief History of the Crimean Khans”. Based on the study of the Kyiv and Berlin manuscripts, the features of the writing’s content were examined, and the sources of information were identified.
The analysis of the manuscript content proves that it can be divided into 4 parts, containing the genealogy of the founder of the Giray dynasty, Khadzhi Giray Khan, and a list of his sons, a commented chronology of the succession of Crimean khans in 1475–1654, an uncommented chronology of the succession of khans in 1666–1724, and a description of certain historical events that took place in the Crimean Khanate between 1725/6 and 1730.
It is found that the source of the conventional first part of “A Brief History” is “Shejere-i Turki” by Abu-l-Ghazi. The main source of the conventional second part of “A Brief History” is “Taqwīm al-tawārīkh” by Katib Celebi. The odds are that he used “Fadhlakat al-Tawārīkh” by Kâtib Celebi, and “Ta’rīkh al-Djannābī” and “Tanqih-i Tawarikh-i Muluk” by Hezârfen as additional sources. The source of the conventional third part, most likely, was an uncommented chronology of the change of power in Crimea, written in the high style Ottoman language, which has not survived to our time or has not yet been found. The study suggests that this part of “A Brief History” and the corresponding part of Seyyed Muhammad Riza’s “Seven Planets”, originate from the common source. The conventional fourth part of “A Brief History of the Crimean Khans” most likely belongs to the pen of the author himself and from this point of view deserves special attention.
The list of the manuscript’s sources and the content of its small fourth part written by the author himself allow us to get to see him as a person well-versed in history and well educated for his time, and assume that he was an ethnic Nogai or Crimean Tatar from the retinue of one of the Giray dynasty sultans in the North Caucasus.
The results of the research also include the transcriptive text of the manuscript based on a comparative study of the Berlin and Kyiv manuscripts and its translation into Ukrainian, which are attached hereto.
