Description

Persistent URL	http://hdl.handle.net/1887.1/item:3519940
Title	A history of some central and south Asian dynasties of the 16th century
Creator/other	Seyfī Çelebi (16th cent) Seyfī Seyfullāh Efendi (d. early 17th cent)
Note	Author may be identical to Seyfī Seyfullāh Efendi. The description on the first flyleaf informs us that the work was written during the reign of Sultan Murād (III, ruled 982/1574 - 1003/1595) by the defterdār Seyfī Çelebi who died in 990/1582. The year of his death is unlikely in view of the contents (cf. Matuz’s study, p. 14). The colophon (67b), possibly by the author himself, stated that the book was completed on 3 Cemāz̲ī l-āḫir 998 (9 April 1590)
