Bayezid'') was the eldest son and successor of Mehmed II, ruling as Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1481 to 1512.

Gülçiçek Hatun
Gülçiçek Hatun ( ota, كلچیچك خاتون; el, Γκιουλτσιτσέκ Χατούν, ''Gülçiçek'' = "rose blossom"; originally named ''Μαρία,'' ''Maria'') was a Greek woman from Bithynia who became the first wife of Ottoman Sultan Murad I and ''Valide Hatun'' to their son Bayezid I. Biography According to a tradition, Gülçiçek was the consort of Aclan Bey, one of the Princes of the Anatolian Muslim Principality of Karasids. She was captured when Orhan conquered the principality ( 1344) and placed in the Ottoman Palace. Some years later, when Orhan's son Murad had reached adulthood, an attempt was made to marry Gülçiçek, but she refused several names suggested to her, until Murad suggested himself. She married Murad I in 1359. There is a support for this story, or part of it at least, in the fact that she appointed her son Yahşi as trustee for an endowment deed she made for a Dervish Monastery, as Murad had no son of this name. She gave birth to two ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
