Note 1 — Chapter LIX
Henry Yule translation
I must observe here that the learned Professor Bruun has raised doubts whether these Alans of Marignolli’s could be Alans of the Caucasus, and if they were not rather Ohláns, i.e. Mongol Princes and nobles. There are difficulties certainly about Marignolli’s Alans; but obvious difficulties also in this explanation.
