Sartuul (Сартуул) is one of the mongol tribes. Today, they mainly live in Zavkhan province of Mongolia.
The origin of the sartuul people is turkic merchants and artisans from Khwarizm. According to Pelliot, Sartuul means merchant in plural. Mongols called merchant as Sart or place he came from as Sartagchinii gazar. After Mongol invasion of Central Asia, many khwarizms and other turks settled in Mongolia.
They were always loyal to Batmunkh Dayan khan and his successors. And they were appointed as one wing of khalkhas. Because, their loyalty was high and Sartuul people had already mixed with Mongols as time went.
After death of Gersenz Huntaiji who is son of Batmunkh Dayan Khaan, his wife divided Khalkha Mongol into her 7 sons(sons of Gersenje). One of his sons, Daldan hundlun received Tangud (Descendants of Xi xia dynasty) and Sartuul tribes. Since then, Chingissid princes from House of Daldan hundlun had ruled them.
Sartuul people is famous for their intelligence and loyalty. 8 khutagts of Khalkha and 2 presidents of Mongolia are from Sartuul. Today Sartuul Khalkhas are in sginificant number and divided into 22 subclans which dwell on Zavkhan province.
