Kingdom of Chagatai in the Catalan Atlas (1375). The Khan Kebek is depicted with the caption: Here reigns the King Chabech (Kebek), lord of the Medeja [Media] Empire. He resides at Emalech (Almaliq).[1] His cities appear with the Chagatai flag ().[2][3]

Almaliq (Uyghur: ئالمالىق; Chinese: ; pinyin: Ālìmálǐ),[4] also spelled Almalik,[5] Almalig,[5] was a medieval city in the Ili basin in present-day Huocheng County, Xinjiang, China along Kazakhstan border. A modern town named Alimali (阿力玛里) in Khorgas, adjacent to Huocheng, has no historical connections with the medieval town.
