Suqu Sechen

Suqu Sechen was a 12th-century Mongol of the Barlas tribe and a paternal ancestor of Timur. The Secret History of the Mongols mentions him once: in 1190 he and his son Qarachar led one of two Barlas delegations to the assembly that proclaimed Temüjin ruler of the Mongols.

Later Timurid works made him a great-grandson of Tumanay Khan and a trusted adviser of Yesugei who foretold the infant Temüjin's greatness and died days after Yesugei in 1171, conflicting with the Secret History's 1190 assembly.
