| description | Titles are one of the most significant elements that determine the hierarchical order in a society and indicate the existence of a certain legal system. Turkic states have been governed within a specific political structure and order since they were first established. In Turkic states, some institutions have been established to perform certain duties and titles used by people representing these institutions. The Uyghurs, who had lived on the banks of the Orkhon and Selenge rivers since the time of the Huns, after the collapse of the Otuken Uyghur State (744-840), they settled in the present-day Hexi Corridor, the Tarim Basin and established two different states. With the expansion of the Mongols towards the West, Uyghur states came under the rule of the Mongols one after another. In fact, after the reign of Kublai Khan (1271-1294), it was observed that Mongolian and Chinese titles were used in addition to Turkic titles within the administrative structure of the Uyghur state. In our study, we will focus on the title, ançaşi “auditor, inspector,” which is found only once in Uyghur civil documents and entered Uyghur language during the Mongol-Yuan Dynasty. Meanwhile, in this study, the origin of the ançaşi, its use in the dynasties established in China, its hierarchical organization in the Mongol-Yuan Dynasty and its areas of authority are given based on Chinese sources. Finally, our research objectives include the introduction of the title of ançaşi in the Uyghur field, its usage and areas of authority. |
