NOTE 1.–Before parting with Chinghiz let me point out what has not to my
knowledge been suggested before, that the name of ‘_Cambuscan_ bold’ in
Chaucer”s tale is only a corruption of the name of Chinghiz. The name of
the conqueror appears in Fr. Ricold as _Camiuscan_, from which the
transition to Cambuscan presents no difficulty. _Camius_ was, I suppose, a
clerical corruption out of _Canjus_ or _Cianjus_. In the chronicle of St.
Antonino, however, we have him called ‘_Chinghiscan rectius_ Tamgius
_Cam_’ (XIX. c. 
. If this is not merely the usual blunder of _t_ for
_c_, it presents a curious analogy to the form _Tankiz Khn_ always used
by Ibn Batuta. I do not know the origin of the latter, unless it was
suggested by _tankis_ (Ar.) ‘Turning upside down.’ (See _Pereg. Quat._, p.
119; _I. B._ III. 22, etc.)
