A dispute arises in 1485 over a Turkmen territory ruled by the Mamluk-supported Duldakir dynasty in Cappadocia.
The Mamluks—against whom the military leaders of Ottoman sultan Bayezid I press for revenge in retaliation for Mamluk support of his rebellious brother in the recent civil war—interfere in Cappadocia by stirring up eastern Turkmen nomads and asserting authority over Lesser Armenia.
The Ottomans initiate a series of six annual campaigns against the Mamluks, five of which end indecisively and one of which ends, in 1488, in a small victory by the Mamluks.
Peace negotiations in 1491 gain the Mamluks territorial concessions and suspend fighting.
