Founder of the Timurid dynasty. Said to be a descendant of Genghis Khan or the son of a Turkish shepherd. He was wounded in the leg in battle, so his enemies called him Timuri Lang (Lame Timur), and in Western Europe he was known as Tamerlane. Taking advantage of the chaos in the Chagatai Khanate, he rose to power, becoming sovereign of Central Asia in 1369, and in 1370 made Samarkand his capital. His ideals were to continue Genghis Khan's work and build an Islamic empire, and he developed Samarkand into a transit market for East-West trade and the center of Islamic culture. He expanded his territory by making expeditions to Iran, Western Asia, southern Russia, and India, but died of illness in 1405 on the way to the Ming Dynasty.

ティムール朝の創始者。チンギス・ハーンの子孫とも,トルコ系牧人の子ともいわれる。足に戦傷を負ったので,彼に敵意を抱く者はティムーリ・ラング(びっこのティムール)と呼び,西欧ではタメルランTamerlaneと通称。チャガタイ・ハーン国の混乱に乗じて立ち,1369年中央アジアの主権者となり,1370年サマルカンドに都した。チンギス・ハーンの事業の継承とイスラム帝国の建設を理想とし,サマルカンドを東西貿易の中継市場,イスラム文化の中心として発達させた。イラン,西アジア,南ロシア,インドに遠征を行い,版土を拡大したが,1405年明への遠征途上に病没。 →関連項目アンカラの戦|イブン・ハルドゥーン|イル・ハーン国|オスマン帝国|タシケント|バグダッド|バヤジト[1世]|ボロジン 出典 株式会社平凡社百科事典マイペディアについて 情報 |
