Kököchin
Kököchin, also Kökejin, Kūkājīn, Cocacin or Cozotine (Mn: Хөхчин, Ch: traditional Chinese: 闊闊真; simplified Chinese: 阔阔真), was a 13th-century princess of the Mongol-led Chinese Yuan dynasty, belonging to the Mongol Bayaut tribe. In 1291, she was betrothed to the Ilkhanate khan Arghun by the Yuan founding emperor Kublai, but married his son Ghazan when Arghun died by the time she had arrived in Persia in 1293. The account of Kököchin's journey to Persia was given by Marco Polo.
