  • 'Abdu'llah Beg, born Archil (არჩილი), (b. 1713 – fl. 1748) was a Georgian prince of the House of Mukhrani of the Bagrationi dynasty and claimant to the kingship of Kartli in the 1740s. 'Abdu'llah Beg was the eldest son of Jesse-Khan, a Muslim ruler of Kartli in central and eastern Georgia, by his first wife Mariam née Orbeliani. Himself a Muslim convert, 'Abdu'llah Beg served as a naib of Kartli for the Iranian shah Nader in 1737 and in the 1740s. In 1744 Teimuraz II and Erekle II of the rival Kakhetian branch of the Bagrationi ascended the thrones of Kartli and Kakheti, respectively. Teimuraz made 'Abdu'llah Beg a prince of Somkhiti and Sabaratiano with the residence at Samshvilde. In 1747, Teimuraz made a trip to Iran, leaving his son Erekle II in charge of Kartli and 'Abdu'llah Beg as his lieutenant. In Teimuraz’s absence, however, 'Abdu'llah Beg attempted a coup, recruited the Dagestani mercenaries and took control of the capital city, Tiflis, with the help of a local Iranian garrison. Fighting continued into the following year until 'Abdu'llah Beg was finally defeated and Tiflis captured by Erekle's loyal army. Thereafter the prince disappeared from history. 'Abdu'llah Beg was married to Ketevan, daughter of Erekle I, of the Kakhetian Bagrationi. They had four sons and one daughter: Prince Aghas Prince David, who conspired with Prince Paata of Georgia against Erekle II and was executed in 1765 Prince Rostom-Mirza Prince Asan-Mirza Princess Mariam-Begum, who married, in 1753, to Azad-Khan, the Afghan warlord of Azerbaijan
