Siege of Kayseri (1490)

The 1490 siege of Kayseri took place during the Ottoman–Mamluk War (1485–1491). Mamluk forces, led by Atabeg Uzbek Bey and Al-Ashraf Qansuh al-Ghuri, laid siege to the central Anatolian city of Kayseri, which was under Ottoman control. The siege resulted in a Mamluk victory after the Ottoman forces, led by Governor Mihailoğlu İskender Bey, were decisively defeated and the city fell.
