Years: 1133 - 1133
Leo, protected in his rear by an alliance with the Danishmend emir, had descended into the plain soon after the death of Bohemond II; after a brief unsuccessful siege of Seleucia, he had seized the three cities of Mamistra, Tarsus and Adana in 1131.
In 1133, Leo captures Sarventikar, on the slopes of the Amanus Mountains, from Baldwin of Marash.
But the Armenian hold over Cilicia is weak: bandits find refuge here, and pirates hang about its coasts.
