Tarkheena

From WikiNarnia, the Narnian Encyclopedia

In the nobility of Calormen, Tarkheena was a high female title. The Tarkaans and the Tarkheena were said to be relatives of the Tisroc and served as government officials, military officials and other posistions in Calormen. As relatives of the Tisroc, they also considered themselves to be descended from the god Tash. The Tarkheena were often wives or daughters of the Tarkaan, though they may also be close female relatives of the Tisroc.
