Death of Jochi.

Zochi (Jochi) was the first son of Genghis khan.

There is no one exact version of his death, a lot of theories surround it. One of them says, that his father, Genghis khan poisoned him, another says that an illness killed Jochi. But the most interesting is the story about hunting. (Actually not one) According this, Jochi hunted on steppe and attacked some wild donkeys and they head donkey defended it's family, tan towards Jochi angryly, bited his arm, throw him away from horse and injured him.

About my picture.

The young man, who is sitting in the middle of the artwork is Batu. He was only eighteen when his father died. It is said, he was favourite Jochi's son. The adult person near him is his elder brother Hordu. In fact, he always supported Batu during all his life. These two brothers couldn't decide who must be new leader of Ulus Jochi because both gave the way to each other.

Also there's younger Jochi's children, there his son (maybe he's Berke) and a daughter. People in the exit and in the dark are their relatives too.
