Sartaq (or Sartak, Sartach, Mongolian: Сартаг, Tatar: Сартак) Khan (died 1257) was the son of Batu Khan and Regent Dowager Khatun Boraqchin of Alchi Tatar.[3] Sartaq succeeded Batu as khan of the Golden Horde.
- ^ "Early in 1253 a report reached Acre that one of the Mongol princes, Sartaq, son of Batu, had been converted to Christianity", Runciman, p. 280. See Alexander Nevsky for details.
- ^ "Sartach examined the bible, and the cross with the image on it, putting some questions respecting both ; but our traveller was dismayed to hear nothing that favoured the report, upon which this painful journey had been undertaken, of his being a believer in the gospel. He never even seemed to refer to the subject, except in a tone of scoffing and derision. On inquiry, the sole ground of the rumour was found to be, that when christian merchants, many of whom passed this way, brought liberal presents, they were graciously accepted ; but when Mohammedans offered larger gifts, they met a welcome still more cordial." Travels of Marco Polo, by Hugh Murray, p. 70.
