12th-century conflict

The Battle of Hab, also known as the Second Battle of Tell Danith, occurred on 14 August 1119, where a Crusader army commanded by King Baldwin II of Jerusalem won a disputed victory over a Muslim army led by Ilghazi of Mardin since the Muslim army claimed it as a victory also. The battle stabilised the Principality of Antioch, which had suffered a disastrous defeat only weeks before.
