Description | After their submission to the Qing rule, Altai Urianhais were organized into two wings and seven banners. Although the banner governors of Altai Urianhais had only the title of "general director" (normally elective), in most cases they were appointed on a hereditary principle. The importance of the "noble birth" for banner rulers is attested also in the local oral tradition. However, rulers of Altai Urianhai Seven Banners have never been incorporated into the official Qing indices of Mongolian nobles (Iledkel šastir). Due to historical lost of local archives, the names of the local rulers fell into oblivion. This paper intends to reconstruct the sequences of Altai Urianhai rulers according to sources in the First Historical Archives of China and the local oral tradition. |
