Arlat

The Arlat were a Mongol tribe whose tumen settled around Maymana in the western Chagatai ulus. In 1337 they were subject to the Chagatai khan.

After the khanate fractured in the fourteenth century, Arlat amirs served the Timurids. A separate branch governed Shaki, where Sidi Ali Arlat resisted Miran Shah's campaigns until he was killed around 1398, when his son Sidi Ahmad succeeded him. Yadgarshah Arlat married a granddaughter of Timur and served Shah Rukh until his death in 1438.
