  Battle of Manzikert - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Battle of Manzikert, or The Battle of Malazgirt, was fought between the Byzantine Empire and Seljuk forces led by Alp Arslan on August 26, 1071 near Manzikert, Armenia (modern Malazgirt, Turkey).
In 1068 Romanus IV led an expedition against them, but his slow-moving infantry could not catch the speedy Turkish cavalry, although he was able to capture the city of Hierapolis in Syria.
In 1070 Romanus led a second expedition towards Malazgirt (then known as Manzikert) in the eastern end of Anatolia (in today's Muş Province), where a Byzantine fortress had been captured by the Seljuks, and offered a treaty with Alp Arslan; Romanus would give back Hierapolis if Arslan gave up the siege of Edessa (Urfa).

 The Seljuk Turks - All About Turkey
Using ancient Harput (modern Elazig) as his base, Diogenes crossed the Euphrates (the classic demarcation of east and west) to confront the Seljuk army on the field of Manzikert (Malazgirt), north of Lake Van in 1071.
Just as they had dealt the Byzantines a decisive blow at Manzikert (Malazgirt) two centuries before, the now settled Seljuks could not resist the most recent wave of nomads from the steppe.
On June 26, 1243, despite Byzantine auxiliaries sent by the Seljuk Sultan's "ally" in Constantinople (Istanbul), the once mighty Seljuk army was utterly routed at Köse Dagi outside the quintessentially Seljuk city of Sivas.

 The 'hordes' linger in Europe's memory: Turkey's EU membership -DAWN - International; 02 October, 2004
The arrival of the "scourge of Christianity" on Mediterranean shores in the 11th century led to a series of wars between Christian princes and the Seljuk Dynasty, from whose ashes the Ottomans emerged in the early 1300s.
Modern European schoolbooks still retain bitter memories of these conflicts, from the 1071 defeat of the Byzantines at Manzikert - modern Malazgirt, in eastern Turkey - to the fall of Constantinople - now Istanbul - in 1453 and the failed sieges of Vienna in 1529 and 1683.
But Ottoman domination of the Balkans and the Mediterranean did not last forever and from the late 17th century on, Europe stopped seeing the empire as a threat and began eying it as possible prey, particularly from the 19th century on, when it was famously called "The Sick Man of Europe."
