Eretna (Turkish plural; Eretnaoğulları) was an Anatolian Turkish Beylik that succeeded the Ilkhanid rulers in Anatolia and that ruled in a large region extending between Kayseri, Sivas and Amasya in Central Anatolia between 1328-1381.
The Beylik's last ruler was replaced by his vizier Kadı Burhaneddin who reigned in the same region for another eighteen years, a period some sources consider as a continuation of the same institutional structure, while other sources treat it separately.
The dynasty's founder, Eretna, was an officer of Uyghur origin in the service of Timurtash, the Ilkhanid governor of Anatolia, and who revolted in 1326 to found his own dynasty.
Although short-lived, the Beylik of Eretna left important works of architecture.
