| description | Malatia had a strategic position for the Turkish armies raiding Anatolia. The city has a position that can
control eastern trade routes. In addition, it is an important city of Byzantium’s defence line from east
to south. After the Battle of Manzikert, Armenians started to settle in Malatia under the command of
Phileratos. But they could never become a sovereign state in this region. Malatia and its surrounding
areas fully joined Ottoman State during the reign of Sultan Selim the Stern. The city was organized
as a district under the Ottoman State. Cadastral records indicate that there were Armenians in the
region both in the city centre and in the villages. Upon studying archive records, it was determined that
Armenians lived in the villages of the sub-districts of Malatia in widespread rural areas. It was found
that Armenians were living in four quarters of the city as minority compared to Muslim population |
