Eretna

Eretna

Eretna (Turkish plural; "Eretnaoğulları") was an Anatolian Turkish Beylik that succeeded the Ilkhanid rulers in Anatolia and that ruled in a large region extending between Kayseri, Sivas and Amasya in Central Anatolia between 1328-1381.

The Beylik's last ruler was replaced by his vizier Kadı Burhaneddin who reigned in the same region for another eighteen years, a period some sources consider as a continuation of the same institutional structure, while other sources treat as being separate.

The dynasty's founder, Eretna, was an officer of Uyghur origin in the service of Timurtash, the Ilkhanid governor of Anatolia. After his master unsuccessfully revolted in 1326 to found his own dynasty, Ilkhan Abu Said appointed Eretna a governor of Rum. Eretnids were able to establish their own beylik when the khan died in 1335 [Encyclopedia of Mongolia and Mongol Empire, "see:" Turkey and Mongol Empire] .

Although short-lived, the Beylik of Eretna left important works of architecture.
