Tunisian historian Ibn Khaldun records that Maghan II succeeded his brother to the throne in 1387, but reigned for only two years before his throne was usurped by Sandaki in 1389. He claims that Maghan was assassinated, but oral histories maintain that he fled to the upper Niger river region, establishing the Hamana banch of the Keita clan.[1]
