The story of the Mongols whom we call the Tartars by Da Pian Del Carpine Giovanni, Erik Hildinger

История монголов, коих мы знаем как татар"
16 апреля 1245 г. итальянский монах-францисканец Джованни да Плано Карпиньи отправился из Лиона в Монголию в ставку великого хана по поручению папы Иннокентия IV как глава дипломатической миссии. В Бреслау (ныне Вроцлав) к ним присоединился еще один монах — Бенедикт — в качестве переводчика. Ступив в Канев, они достигли границ монгольских владений и через год в низовьях Волги прибыли в ставку Батыя, покорителя Восточной Европы. Батый направил их дальше к верховному хану. Путешествие проходило вдоль берегов Аральского моря, по долине Сыр-Ларьи к Семиречью и вдоль склонов Монгольского Алтая.
Прибыв на место, посланцы папы узнали, что великий хан Угедей уже четыре с половиной года как скончался и со всех концов огромной Монгольской империи все это время созывают потомков Чингисхана для избрания нового хана. Монахи присутствовали во время избрания великим ханом старшего сына Угедея Гаюка в августе и лишь после этого были представлены ему. Их продержали в Орде до ноября и отпустили с наступлением зимы, вручив послание папе на монгольском, арабском и латинском языках, в котором просто утверждалась роль хана как исполнителя кары божьей. Когда летом следующего года они вновь добрались до Киева, славяне-христиане встречали их как восставших из мертвых. Прибыв в Лион, Карпини передал папе врученное ханом послание, а сам вскоре стал архиепископом и написал историю своего путешествия, которая полностью вышла в свет лишь в 1839.

Example text

Then the army follows and seizes everything they find, and capture or kill men if they can find them. After this the commanders of the army send skilled raiders everywhere to find men and herds. Whenever the Tartars come upon rivers they cross them this way even if they are large: most men have a light round leather hide and they make loops all around the edge of it through which they put a cord and tighten it, and thus make a sack which they fill with clothing and other things, and draw it together tightly.

And if they are caught they should be kept in order to have through them something like a perpetual peace, or else great sums shall be given for them because they value each other so. Therefore when they are captured, if they are taken alive, a strict guard must be kept lest they escape. The Tartars are to be recognized by their appearance described above. There are many other races with them, who can be distinguished from them by that description. You must also know that there are many in every part of the army with the Tartars who, if they see the chance and believe our men will not kill them, would fight the Tartars as they themselves said to us, and would harm them more than others who are openly their enemies.

The names of the sons are these: one is called Mengu whose mother is Seroctan; this lady is higher and more powerful among all the Tartars than any except the emperor's mother and Bati. Another is called Bechac. He has many sons, but we do not know their names. WHOM WE CALL THE TARTARS - 65 Here are the names of their military leaders: Ordu, who was in Poland and Hungary; Bati, Burin, Cadan, Siban, and Buyget who were all in Hungary, and Chirpodan who went beyond the sea against the sultan of Damascus and others who are there.
