Note 356 — Chapter IV · THE RULING INSTITUTION: AS AN ARMY
Reading edition
Heidborn, 140, says that the Subashis had ziamets, the Alai Beys had small khasses, the Sanjak Beys had khasses of a million aspers or more, and the Beylerbeys much more. The amount which he assigns to the Sanjak Beys is too large for Suleiman’s time. Ramberti (below, pp. 256-258) gives their income at from 4000 to 12,000 ducats, which would amount to from 200,000 to 600,000 aspers.
