Qutuqa Beki (Mongolian: Худуга бэхи/Хутуга бэх; ᠬᠤᠳᠤᠭ᠎ᠠ ᠪᠡᠬᠢ) — was a 13th century chief of the Oirats who played a major role in the formation of the Mongol Empire.

Biography

The first mentions of Qutuqa Beki in The Secret History of the Mongols date back to 1201, when a number of rulers of the Mongol tribes, including the Oirats, swore allegiance to Jamukha and chose him as a gurkhan, pledging to fight against Genghis Khan.[1] According to a story, he along with the Naiman king Buyruq Khan, used a jada or "thunder stone" to unleash a powerful storm on Genghis' army. But the magical ploy backfired when an unexpected wind blew the storm back at Qutuqa. Buyruq, troubled by this storm, left the alliance and retreated to the south side of the Altai Mountains.[2] Subsequently, Genghis Khan defeated Jamukha and the Naimans, but the Oirats had not yet been conquered by the time the Mongol Empire was formed in 1206. Nevertheless, when in 1207 Genghis Khan gave his eldest son Jochi the order to conquer the "forest peoples", Qutuqa was one of the first to obey, arriving with 10,000 Oirat soldiers.[1] He then proceeded to the khan's court and submitted personally, having received such a powerful ally, Genghis married two women from his family to Qutuqa's children, thus starting one of the most fruitful alliances in Mongol history.[3][4] He led an attack on Botokhoi Targun, chieftess of Khori-Tumed [ru] but was captured. Later he was given Botokhui as his concubine after Genghis Khan led an attack on them personally and subdued.
