	History Decided At The
		This would be their undoing as the Mamluks ultimately overthrew them and took control of the country for themselves, with one of their own, Qutuz, as the new sultan (a temporal ruler equivalent to 'king').
		Qutuz took this action not out of a misguided belief that his army could match the Mongols- he fully realized that they had little chance of survival- but because the Mamluks had been slaves all their lives, and were determined to hold onto their newly-found power until the bitter end.
		Having arrived first, Qutuz and the Mamluks had time to lay a trap: they hid the bulk of their forces in the hills to either side of the narrow plain, then baited the trap with a vanguard under the command of his lieutenant, Baybars.
