The Aḥmadīlīs were local rulers of Marāgha, the area around Rūyīn-diz, and parts of Azerbaijan from around 516/1122 to 617/1220, or shortly thereafter. They held Marāgha until 605/1209, and were still in control of Rūyīn-diz in 618/1221, when the Mongols sacked the region (Minorsky, Marāg̲h̲a, 501). The Aḥmadīlīs are initially mentioned as atabeg s, or tutors, to young princes of the Saljūq dynasty.
