The Mongol and Post-Mongol Era

The Mongol invasion and the fall of Baghdad in 1258, the Ilkhanids and the Timurids, and the Persianate courts that followed. The museum roughly bounds it from 1219 CE to about 1500 CE. These boundaries are the museum's own organising convention and are not absolute.

The museum's holdings for this era today include: polities: 4, most frequently appearing figures: 2, works: 2, buildings: 2.

Polities

• The Timurid Empire (1370 CE to 1507 CE)
• The Bahmani Sultanate (1347 CE to 1527 CE)
• The Ilkhanate (1256 CE to 1335 CE)
• The Marinid Dynasty (1215 CE to 1465 CE)

Most frequently appearing figures

This era is still thinly covered in the museum (10 items only), so this page should not be read as a comprehensive survey of it. Its items are being added gradually from primary sources with each new batch.

The era's boundaries are the museum's own organising convention and are approximate. For the wider history of this period, see ^{1 2}.
