• CiNii Books

The Qalqa, which must have been a single group originally, occurs in the Mongolian chronicles known to us already as two, the Inner and the Outer. In the latter half of the sixteenth century, the Inner Qalqa consisted of five otoγ’s, ○arud, Barin, Qonggirad, Bayud and Öǰiyed, and the Outer Qalqa, of thirteen otoγ’s, ○alayir, Üneged, Besüd, Elǰigen, Kerüd, γoorlas, Quruqu Küriye, etc., some governing others. The governing group in the Inner Qalqa was first the Qonggirad, later the 〇arud, and that in the Outer Qalqa was the 〇alayir.Earlier, in the Eastern part of Mongolia under the Yüan Dynasty had existed a group quite similar to the Qalqa Myriarchy in its character, usually referred to as the Five Tribes of the Left-Hand, consisting of the ○alayir, Qonggirad, Ikires, Uruγud and Mangγud. Having governing groups and pasture lands in common, the Qalqa Myriarchy may be regarded as having its origin in the Five Tribes of the Left-Hand of the Yüan times. The ○alayir, the most influential tribe in the whole Qalqa, entered frequent alliances through marriages with the Borlǰigin Clan and held considerable power in the Outer Qalqa from the sixteenth century on.○はJ（大文字）の上にv
