Life

He was born to Hulagu and his Oirat wife Guyuk Khatun[3] in 1234. He was descended from Genghis Khan on both sides - Hulagu being his grandson via Tolui, Guyuk being his granddaughter via Checheikhen. His maternal grandfather was Toralchi Güregen, one of the sons of Qutuqa Beki.

He was left behind in Mongolia with Möngke when Hulagu left for Iran in 1253. Entrusted with his father's other wives' ordu,[4] he settled near Almaliq. However he soon found himself in a succession crisis between his uncles Kublai and Ariq Böke in 1259 and had to support the latter.[5] Not much after Ariq's move against Alghu in 1263 and his surrender in the later year he deserted and left for Iran with host of other relatives of Hulagu - his wife Qutui Khatun, his brothers Taraghai, Tekshin, Teküder and others. Hearing news, Hulagu sent one of his commanders, Abatai Noyan, to accompany them. However, Jumghur fell ill and died in Samarqand en route.[5] His family reached Iran without him. An angered Hulagu lashed Abatai with 60 sticks, accusing him of not take care of Jumghur appropriately.

Jumghur had two chief wives and few concubines[1]:
