  Battle of Ain Jalut - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Battle of Ain Jalut (or Ayn Jalut, in Arabic: عين جالوت, the "Eye of Goliath or the "Spring of Goliath") took place on September 3, 1260 between the Mamluks and the Mongols in Palestine.
Many historians argue that this defeat, and the subsequent defeats by the Japanese of invading Mongols, marked the beginning of the end of the Mongol Empire, though parts of it would last another 250 years.
But Ain Jalut and the defeats near Iki Island by the Japanese marked the end of the aura of Mongol invincibilty.

Ain Jalut has been, as far back as biblical times, a place known more for the blood shed there than for anything else.
The results of the Battle of Ain Jalut had consequences far greater than the destruction of a Mongol expeditionary force.

 Venegoni - Hulagu's Campaign in the West (1256-1260) - Transoxiana Eran ud Aneran
Hülägü's triumphant campaign was brought to a halt by the Mamluk army on the 3rd of September 1260 in 'Ain Jalut (Palestine), where Hülägüs army was defeated by the Egyptian power.
The battle of 'Ain Jalut has a considerable significance for the political and military strategy, which the Mamluks subsequently adopted.
We think that these continuous "extraterritorial" incursions were due to the structural need of the military-based form of Mongol political system to maintain itself and to provide for the warriors a satisfactory reward after the struggles of war.
