Mughal Ancestry of Queen Alanqoa

Queen Alanqoa (also referred to as Alanqo or Alanqua) is historically recognized as a legendary ancestress linked to the lineage of Genghis Khan, the founder of the Mongol Empire.

The Mughal Empire, established in the Indian subcontinent by Babur in the 16th century, claimed descent from both Timur (Tamerlane) and Genghis Khan. Since Babur's lineage connected him to Genghis Khan, and Alanqo was a key figure in that Mongol ancestral line, Queen Alanqoa is considered an ancestral mother connected to the Mughals through this significant historical link.

Therefore, Queen Alanqoa was an ancestral mother of the Mughals.
