About Kaykhosrow Khan

Kaykhosrow Khan (died 1674) was a Safavid military commander and gholam of Georgian descent. He served as the commander of the musketeer corps (tofangchi-aghasi) from 1670 to 1674, during the reign of king Suleiman I (r. 1666–1694).

Kaykhosrow's mother was a daughter of Bijan Beg, of the Georgian Saakadze family, and, thus, a nephew to Bijan's sons Rostam (the sepahsalar, d. 1643), Aliqoli (d. 1667), and Isa (d. 1654). Kaykhosrow's son, Manuchehr, briefly served as the governor of Darun in 1698–1699.
