| Summary: | Bursuqids, as a local governor family during the Seljuq period, were descendants of the Great Bursuq, who was one of the slaves of commanders of Hasanuyeh governors. When Seljuq armies conquered the Jibal, the heirs of Hasanuyeh joined the Seljuqs, then one of them, who called Bursuq, promoted his rank to the extent that was appointed as the first shihna (military commander) in Baghdad. In addition, he was appointed as a ruler of the former Hasanuyeh’spossession in Lorestan. He has ruled near 40 years in Seljuq court and his offspring played a key role in the political and military developments during the Seljuq period. Finally, the Bursuqids family was collapsed with the weakness of the Seljuqs and the arrival of new Turkmen powers. Using analytical- historical methods, this study seeks to introduce Bursuqids family, and to show their role in the political and military developments in the Seljuq period. Also, the overall effort is to analyze the political, economic, and social events of the Bursuqids era, rather than merely presenting a historical description |
