Female figure from the period of the Beylikler, 13th century.

Wikipedia has: Anatolian beyliks, or Turkmen beyliks (Turkish: Anadolu Beylikleri, Ottoman Turkish: Tevâif-i mülûk, Beylik Turkish pronunciation: [bejlic]) were small Turkish principalities governed by Beys, which were founded across Anatolia at the end of the 11th century in a first period, and more extensively during the decline of the Seljuq Sultanate of Rûm during the second half of the 13th century.

The word "beylik" denotes the territory under the jurisdiction of a Bey, roughly translated "Lord".
