Nogai Beg?
Brian Davies,'Warfare, State and Society on the Black Sea Steppe' has about 1636 a Khantimur, Beg of the Bucak Nogais, 'the most loyal of the Sultan's Tatar vassals', protector of the fortresses at Akerman, Ochakov and Bendery, Beylerbey of Bendery. He was attached by Inaet Girai, Khan of Crimea. Davies' source is Hrushevsky and one other. Someone with better sources might want to trace this. Benjamin Trovato (talk) 00:46, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
