The Travels of Marco Polo · Character
First wife of Chinghiz
- Minor
- First seen · Book 1 · Ch. 85
She is known to the reader only through a quiet, solemn trace: a first wife remembered in connection with the great Khan’s tomb. That glimpse gives her an almost elegiac presence, as though a life has been reduced to a whisper carried across the steppe.

The account offers no personal history or characterization beyond naming her as Chinghiz Khan’s first wife. It records the tradition that her ashes lie in his tomb at Yeke-Etjen-Koro, leaving her remembered through this intimate, somber association. Her life and individual story remain otherwise untold.
Description
The text provides no description of her face, complexion, hair, eyes, build, clothing, or distinguishing features. Her appearance should therefore remain unspecified rather than supplied with invented details.
