Shad (prince)
Shad ( otk, 𐱁𐰑, šad) was a state office in the early Central Asian Turkic states, roughly equivalent to governor. "Shad" could only be an appointee over a vassal tribe, where he represented interests of the preeminent Kagan. The name of this tribe was included in his title. For example, Tardu-shad could only be a Shad over Tardu tribe. The title carried autonomy in different degrees, and its links with the central authority of kagan varied from economical and political subordination to superficial political deference. The title ''Shad'' is borrowed from an Iranian source (cf. Sogdian ''’ġšyδ'', Saka ''šao'', Middle Iranian ''šāδ'', Persian ''šāh'' < ''xšāyaθiya'' ‘king’, or Avestan ''xšaēta'' "chief"). The position of Shad was traditionally given to the member of a ruling ( |
