Manuchihr II of Shirvan
Manuchihr II was the seventeenth shah of Shirvan. Azerbaijani historian Sara Ashurbeyli associated him with Al-Adud, a son of Fariburz I, who was mentioned by Masud b. Namdar as ruling emir of Ganja. He might have started this tenure when Malik Shah removed Fadlun ibn Fadl from power in 1086.
