Hayder
Hayder (d. about 1487) was a Crimean khan in 1456, and a son of Haci Giray. In 1456, he rose in rebellion against his father and occupied the throne for a short time until the failure of the rebellion. During the reign of his brother Mengli Giray was captured and imprisoned in Genoese fortress Soldaia. After the Ottoman conquest of Crimea fled to Polish Kingdom, lived in Kyiv. About 1479 moved to Muscovy under protection of the grand duke Ivan III, who later banished Hayder to exile to Northern Muscovy (reasons remain unknown). He died about 1487 in Bieloozero, Wologda region.
