Kaykhusraw II

Kaykhusraw II was the Seljuk sultan of Rum who succeeded his father Kaykubad I in 634/1237. His reign ended in catastrophe when the Mongols defeated him at Köse Dagh, between Erzincan and Sivas, on 6 Muharram 641/26 June 1243, and the sultanate never recovered its independence. He died in the winter of 1245-6, about forty years old, leaving only minor sons.
