Iran / Persia: Folio from the Divan of Sultan Ahmad Jalayir showing 'siyah kalem' or 'qalam siahi' pen-and-ink illustrations of nomadic riders. Jalayirid Sultanate (1335-1432).

The Jalayirids were a Mongol dynasty which ruled over Iraq and western Persia after the breakup of the Mongol Khanate of Persia (or Ilkhanate) in the 1330s. The Jalayirid sultanate lasted about fifty years, until disrupted by Tamerlane's conquests and the revolts of the 'Black Sheep Turks' or Qara Qoyunlu Turkmen. After Tamerlane's death in 1405, there was a brief attempt to re-establish the sultanate in southern Iraq and Khuzistan. The Jalayirids were finally eliminated by Kara Koyunlu in 1432.
