Person
Ishak Bey of Saruhan
Ishak Bey was ruler of the Turkish beylik of Saruhan in western Anatolia, with its capital at Manisa, in the second half of the 14th century. He was the son of the dynasty's founder Saruhan Bey. His reign saw the beylik prosper from the fertile Gediz plain and trade with the Genoese of Phocaea, and in 1366–1367 he built the Great Mosque of Manisa, which still stands. Saruhan was annexed by the Ottomans soon after his death.
