Sutayid

The Sutayids were a Mongol dynasty of the post-Ilkhanate era, founded by Emir Sutay, a commander of Ilkhan Ghazan and son-in-law of Hulagu's son Möngke Temür. From the early fourteenth century the family held Diyar Bakr, with Amid as its chief city.

Sutay died in 1332 and his son Hajji Taghay inherited his lands. He quarrelled with the Oirats and leaned on the Jalayirids, until his nephew Ibrahimshah killed him in 1343 with Chupanid backing. Ibrahimshah died in 1350, and the family's holdings around Mosul were lost; Pir Muhammad briefly recovered Mosul but was murdered in 1351.

The surviving Sutayids took refuge with the Eretnids in Anatolia, where they were known as the Barambays. Diyar Bakr passed to other Mongol and Turkmen lords.
