Upon his father's death in 1384, Sultan Mahmud was made khan by Timur. Like Suurgatmish, Sultan Mahmud was completely powerless, and served as a puppet for Timur. Coins in his name were produced by Timur during his lifetime. Sultan Mahmud's death in 1402 marked the end of the western Chagatai Khans, who had long been mere figureheads anyway. Whether or not anyone was appointed to succeed him as khan is unknown (at least by this writer); anyone that did succeed him would have been equally powerless, and even less important.
