Tauke Khan

d. c. 1718 · 18th century

Tauke Khan was khan of the Kazakh Khanate in the late 17th and early 18th centuries, the last to hold the three juz together. He is remembered for the law code Zhety Zhargy, the 'Seven Charters', which regulated custom, feuds and property among the Kazakh tribes, and for his councils of tribal leaders. After his death around 1718 the khanate split, each juz under its own khans.
