1265 CE
Baibars—ruthless and devoid of the generous chivalry that the earlier crusaders had admired in Saladin—conducts almost annual raids against them from 1265 to 1271.
Most of his conquests are followed by massacre of the inhabitants, often including the native Christians, especially when they have been in league with the Mongols.
In 1265, he takes Caesarea Maritima, which, after its destruction by the Mamluks, is abandoned.
