Hello!

 

While trying to figure out the Delhi Sultanate, I also happened upon the Ghurid dynasty (which is what came before). It seems two additional issuers are needed.

 

Please create a parent issuer:

ghurid_section

Ghurid dynasty

the Ghurid dynasty

Ghorides, Dynestie des

de la dynastie des Ghorides

PARENT: islamic-caliphates

[Do not allow coins to be added to this one]

Q199443

 

For the following, move it under the above parent:

ghurid_dynasty

PARENT: ghurid_section

 

And then create the following:

 

Bamiyan, Ghurids of

the Ghurids of Bamiyan

Bamiyan, Ghorides de

des Ghorides de Bamiyan

MAP: Afghanistan

PARENT: ghurid_section

Q214495

 

Ghazni, City of

the City of Ghazni

Ghazni, Ville de

de la ville de Ghazni

MAP: Afghanistan

PARENT: ghurid_section

Q173731

The Ghurids of Bamiyan were a competing dynasty of the original Ghurids, which had a unique geographical area and there own coins, for some rulers. You can read about them on the Wiki for the Ghurid dynasty (this is the Bamiyan Branch):

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghurid_dynasty

 

For the City of Ghazni, it seems this was a city within the Bamiyan Branch which was re-captured by the original Ghurids. They had one general who issued his own coins while the actual Ghurid Sultan (Ghiyath al-Din Mahmud) continued to issue his own coins. I think this would be alright to create as its own issuer, considering the situation and geographical areas.

Thoughts on all this?  :)

We already have the city here, shouldnt we gather?

If it is alright with you, I would like you to ignore the “City of Ghazni” portion of this request. I am currently working on the entirety of the Islamic states (going through every page on Zeno as a reference), and this issue occurs in multiple instances. I have this one documented, and when I am done, I will point out every instance of where this would happen, and hopefully we could find a solution then.

 

We would still need the Ghurids of Bamiyan, although I have that on my big list as well. If you would like to create this now or reject this whole request and deal with that issuer later, that is up to you.  :)

Done!

Thank you!

 

I do have a question though. The issuer was added as “Ghurids of Bamiyan” rather than “Bamiyan, Ghurids of”. Was this intentional? Or just a mistake? If it was a mistake, then I would like to point it out; if it was intentional, than I am curious why.  :)

A mistake :-)

Alrighty. No problem!  x)
