The Battle of Arghana was a military engagement between the Hamdanid Arabs and the Byzantine army in a defile near Ergani. The Arabs led by Sayf al-Dawla raided Byzantine territory. On their way back, they met a Byzantine force under John Tzimiskes, which blocked a pass that leads to Diyarbakır. The battle ended in Arab victory and the rout of the Byzantines.
