Biography

Devlet Hatun was a slave concubine of Ottoman Sultan Bayezid I and the mother of Bayezid's successor, Mehmed I.
Devlet is often confused with an other Bayezid's consort, Devletşah, due to similar names. The confusion is such that on Devlet's tomb are incorrectly indicated the origin and date of death of Devletşah, who was the daughter of Süleyman of Germiniyan and died in 1414.
Devlet Hatun died instead in 1422.
