Bistam On 17 September 1303, Ghazan betrothed Uljay to Bistam, the eldest son of Ghazan's younger brother Öljaitü Khan. The marriage took place on 12 January 1305, when Uljay was seven. By marrying Ghazan's only surviving child to his eldest son, Öljaitu wished to consolidate his position as well as that of his successor, as heir to Ghazan's legacy. Abu Sa'id After Bistam's premature death, Uljay was betrothed to his younger brother Abu Saʿid, at the time of the prince's departure to Khurasan. The marriage took place before his accession to the throne on 5 July 1317, and Uljay became his chief and most beloved wife. She had a daughter with Abu Sa'id. Shushtar was allocated to the wages (mavajib) of Uljay Qutlugh. ==Ancestry==
