Documents of the legendary Khan?s early life are very limited and contradictory. He was most likely born in 1162, although some sources believe he was born in 1155 or 1165. It is believed that khan was given the name Temujin. Khan?s father Yesukhei was the leader of the minor Borijin society of nomadic Mongols, who lived by hunting instead than gathering. Yesukhei took away Temujin's mother, Hoelun, as she and her first husband came home from their wedding. She became Yesukhei's second spouse; Temujin was his second son by just a few months. Mongol legend says that the baby was born with a blood-clot in his fist is a sign that he is going to become a true warrior.
