Description Ukrainian cossacks conquer Feodosia.png |
English:
Ukrainian cossacks under the leadership of
Petro Konashevych-Sahaidachny
capture the Turkish sea-port of
Caffa (Feodosia)
in 1616. This city was the largest Turkish centre for the human slave trade, and the capture by the cossacks enabled many Christian men, women and children to be freed from a life of slavery. Woodcut from a 1622 book commemorating Petro Konashevych-Sahaidachny.
