Hayme Hatun (Ottoman Turkish: حائمہ خاتون, "love"), also known as Hayma Ana[2] (Mother Hayma), was the grandmother of Osman I, founder of the Ottoman Empire and the mother of Ertuğrul Gazi, Gündoğdu and the leader of the Kayı clan of the Oghuz Turks. She was bestowed and known by the title of Devlet Ana (State Mother) of the Ottoman Empire.[3] [4]

Name[edit]

Her name appears as Haymana, Hayme Hatun, Hayme Sultan, Ayva Ana and Ayvana. The name Hayma Ana seems to be an obvious transference of the topographic term haymana, or "prairie", into a personal name.[citation needed]
