Anushtegin Gharchai

Anusch - Tegin (or Nusch - Tegin ) Ghartscha ( i) (Persian انوشتکین / نوشتکین غرجۀى / غرجه, DMG Anūš-Tegin/Nūš-Tegin ʾ ī Garca / Garca ) was a Turkish military slaves in the service of Großseldschuken and from about 1077 Governor the Central Asian province of Khorezm. His descendants, the Khorezm Shah from the ( named after him ) dynasty of Anuschteginiden ( Anūšteginiden ) later took advantage of the decline of Großseldschuken to become independent, and built during the 12th and early 13th century, a short-lived empire.

Anusch - Tegin came from the mountain region Ghartschistan ( Ġarčistān ) in the northwest of present-day Afghanistan and was possibly chaladschischer or qiptschaqischer origin. Together with the Emir bilge Tegin, which had once recruited him as Ghulam ( Gulam ), he was commissioned by the 1073 I. Seljuk Sultan Malik Shah, retake the areas in the north of Khorasan, which had recently been annexed by the Ghaznavids, . Subsequently, the Sultan even appointed him his tascht -dar (Persian طشتدار, touch -dar, " keeper of the ( royal ) basin " ), and after it was then apparently become common, this office specifically to fund with the proceeds from Khorezm, was eventually used as schihna ( šiḥna ) that very border province Anusch - Tegin. However, there is no information on whether he has this governorship actually carried out; probably he held it his life only nominally, ie to have been even in Choresmien without ever.

Also on Anusch - Tegin end nothing is basically known. In the year 1097 is Choresmien the sources according to a named Ghulam Ekintschi b. Qotschqar ( Ekinci b. Qočqar ) ruled that the traditional title " Khorezm - shah " ( Ḫvārazm - Šāh ) revived. Anusch - Tegin son, Qutb al-Din Muhammad ( Qutb ad - Dīn Muḥammad ), but was able to prevail in the same year as his father's successor and - the dynasty of the causative Anuschteginiden - take dominion in Gurgandsch ( Gurgānǧ ).
