Chaidu (11. Jahrhundert)

According to the secret history of mongols, a blue wolf and his mate, a fallow deer, settled at the head of the Onon River, and there, Batchilaguun (Batacaciqian), the ancestor of the Mongols, was born. Many generations passed and different clans emerged from the line of Batacaciqian. In the Borjigin clan there was a man named Khaidu. One day a rival clan attacked and killed his family and destroyed their hard worked prosperity. In revenge, Khaidu gathered a large group and defeated his rival. Khaidu earned a large following, and according to the Secret History, became the first to rule all the Mongol clans.

He was once remembered by Rene Grousset as mighty and brave warrior.

Kabul khan was Khaidu's most famous grandson.
