The first conflicts
In 1475, the Turks captured Anapa. The Adygs found themselves under even more severe oppression from Turkey. Anapa under the Turks became a large slave market in the Black Sea region, as well as a center of Islamic propaganda among the tribes of the Northwestern Caucasus (before the arrival of the Turks, the Adygs were pagans, and then Christians). Any disobedience of freedom-loving Adygs was severely punished. Since the 16th century, Turks and Crimean Khans annually exported more than 12,000 slaves from the Caucasian coast. Military campaigns against the Adygs were systematically undertaken in order to subjugate them and impose tribute. [1]
In 1479, the first Turkish campaign against Circassia took place. Ibn Kemal described his results in excellent tones, but only Matrega, Mapu (Anapa) and Kopu again managed to occupy the army that landed from the ships [2]. The Turks were content with controlling the strategically important area of the Kerch Strait. They occupied the most strategically and economically important territories – the Kerch Peninsula, the Taman Peninsula, and the southern coast of Crimea – under their new viceroyalty – the Kafinsky Beylerbeystvo.
After 1500
In 1539, the great campaign of Khan Sahib Giray I against the Circassians followed, "organized by order of the Kafin governor Khalil Bey," which means the sultan. The reason was the Circassian attack on the Ottoman fortresses of the Taman Island [3]
The year is 1545. Sahib Giray attacked the western regions of Circassia and Kabarda. The reason was the refusal of the Adyghe prince Kansavuk to pay tribute to the Ottoman ruler with slaves. [4]
The year is 1551. Sahib Giray undertook another invasion of Circassia because of the attack of the Khatukai princes on the subjects of the Crimean Khan near Azak (Azov). Most of the principalities of Circassia were hit, as a result of which many Circassian princes took the oath of allegiance to Sahib Giray. [5]
In 1562 Circassians captured two Turkish cities Temryuk and Taman
In 1572 Circassians made a military raid on the Ottoman coast: "Circassians, arriving on 24 ships, burned and destroyed all the settlements of the coast 300 miles away, ravaged Turkish vineyards and killed many people, and women were taken captive, taking all property and goods, as a result of which they are afraid that they would not come to this city". [6]
In 1583, the Turkish army was defeated by Kabardian soldiers. [7]
In 1588, the Kabardian princes went to Moscow for help against the Turks and Tatars. Russian archers came to Kabarda in 1589 and helped the Kabardian princes defeat their enemies. [8]
After 1700
In 1734 A major battle took place in Malaya Kabarda between Russians and Kabardians, on the one hand, and the Ottoman Tatar army, on the other hand. At the same time, the Kalmyks also took the side of the latter. The Russians retreated, but the Kabardian cavalry, led by Mahomet Kurgoko, defeated the Crimeans and took away half of the Grebensky villages. [9]
