Timur Khan Ajarlu Shamlu

Timur Khan Ajarlu Shamlu (also spelled Teymur Khan Ajarlu'i) was the Safavid-appointed governor of Kurdistan from 1682 to 1688. Following the execution of the unpopular governor Khosrow Khan Ardalan, Shah Solayman ((r. 1666 – 1694)) had him replaced with Timur Khan, who became the first non-Kurdish governor of the province. Since Timur Khan was a foreigner with no connection to the province, he was eventually chased out by the locals. In 1688, he was replaced by Khan Ahmad Khan II Ardalan.
