Kavus I of Shirvan

Kavus I was the 32nd Shirvanshah, ruling first alongside his father Kayqubad I and alone from about 1348. He defied the Chobanid Malek Ashraf and in 1347 took shelter in Shirvan's castles; he then invited the Golden Horde khan Jani Beg, who captured Tabriz and killed Malek Ashraf.

Kavus twice occupied Tabriz, but after the Jalayirid Shaykh Uways besieged Shamakhi he accepted vassalage and left his son Hushang a hostage until 1372. Kavus died in 1372.
