Danishmend Gazi, full name Gümüştekin Danishmend Ahmed Gazi (d. 1104), was the founder of the Beylik of Danishmends. After the Turkish advance into Anatolia that followed the Battle of Manzikert, his state controlled the north-central regions in Anatolia.
He is sometimes also referred to by the title Melik meaning "King", which was actually bestowed upon his grandson in 1134 by the Abbasid Caliph of Baghdad. The title Gazi denotes a warrior.
There is also some confusion on his name and divergence among names used by scholars. He had the same name as his son, Gümüştekin. The father is often referred to shortly as Danishmend Gazi, while his son is called Emir Gazi, without mentioning the name Gümüştekin common to both. Furthermore, Danishmend dynasty is also cited as having a family tie to the Seljuk dynasty.
Danishmend Gazi conquered Niksar (Neocaesarea) and made it his capital. The cities of Tokat (historic Comana), Sivas (Sebastea) and Euchaita were also captured.
During the First Crusade, he was directly on the path of the advancing crusaders. On the losing side at the Battle of Dorylaeum in 1097, he scored a success in capturing Bohemond I of Antioch in 1100. He continued campaigning, extending southwards and capturing Malatya (Melitene) in 1103.
He was succeeded by his son Emir Gazi Gümüştekin [1].
A tomb attributed to him is found in Niksar [2].

I noticed that a photo had been moved to this page today. For the record, Melik Mehmed Gazi whose tomb is located in Kayseri is a descendant of the Danishmend Gazi of this article. The latter's türbe is in a very old cemetery in Niksar. I will begin looking through my photographs for one appropriate for this page. Aramgar ( talk) 03:26, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
