Biography

He became a Khan after the death of his father Kasym Khan in the winter of 1521.[3] Under his rule, Mamash could not resist against the Nogai Horde, which captured the territory to the Turgai River. Kazakh Khanate was greatly reduced, nevertheless even Tsars of Russia considered the lands as theirs. Ivan the Terrible repeatedly sent his ambassadors. The reign of Mamash Khan was short-lived; rivalry between the nobles weakened the state. In 1523, Mamash died in an internal conflict due to suffocation and injuries caused by weapons.[4] After his death, Adik Sultan's son Taiyr ascended the throne.[5]
