	Kerbogha (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Kerbogha was Atabeg of Mosul during the First Crusade and was renowned as a soldier.
		During the siege, Peter the Hermit was sent as emissary to Kerbogha by the Christian princes in the city, to suggest that the parties settle all differences by duel.
		When Bohemond, the leader of the Christian army decided to attack, Kerbogha was taken by surprise because the information he had received was of a weak, disorganized Christian army.

		The crusaders were luckily granted time to prepare for their arrival, as Kerbogha had first made a three-week long excursion to Edessa, which he was unable to recapture from Baldwin of Boulogne, who had taken it earlier in 1098.
		Kerbogha hesitated against his generals' pleadings, hoping to attack them all at once rather than one division at a time, but he underestimated their size.
		The Turks were inflicting many casualties, including Adhemar's standard-bearer, and Kerbogha set fire to the grass between his position and the crusaders, but this did not deter them: they had visions of three saints riding along with them, led by St.

	Adhemar of Le Puy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		After the capture of the city in June, 1098, and the subsequent siege led by Kerbogha, Adhemar organized a procession through the streets, and had the gates locked so that the Crusaders, many of whom had begun to panic, would be unable to desert the city.
		He was extremely skeptical of Peter Bartholomew's discovery in Antioch of the Holy Lance, especially because he knew such a relic already existed in Constantinople; however, he was willing to let the Crusader army believe it was real if it raised their morale.
		When Kerbogha was defeated, Adhemar organized a council in an attempt to settle the leadership disputes, but he died on August 1, 1098, probably of typhus.

		Kerbogha turned from him with a look of contempt, and said he could agree to no proposals from a set of such miserable beggars and robbers.
		It is related that Kerbogha was playing a game at chess, when the fl flag on the citadel gave warning of the enemy's approach, and that, with true oriental coolness, he insisted upon finishing the game ere he bestowed any of his attention upon a foe so unworthy.
		Kerbogha, aware at last that his enemy was not so despicable, took vigorous measures to remedy his mistake, and, preparing himself to meet the Christians in front, he despatched the Sultan Soliman, of Roum, to attack them in the rear.

	Antioch
		Kerbogha, the Atabeg of Mosul, and a soldier of great reputation, had gathered troops and marched on Antioch upon learning of the Crusader siege of the city, and was encamped outside the city walls by June 7th, four days after the Crusaders captured the city.

		[50] Then the son of Yaghi-Siyan, the emir of Antioch, came and threw himself at Kerbogha's feet, begging him to come to his aid and relating that the army of the Christians was small and starving.
		Kerbogha moved all the troops of the foreigners from East to West, from Babylon and those parts, from Damascus and all the coastal areas, and from Jerusalem to the desert areas.
		As we mentioned, when the Romans entered the city and when Kerbogha was besieging it and afflicting them, the Christian forces were suffering hunger, as the city had long since been running out of victuals.
