The premiere of the "Malazgirt Documentary in the Footsteps of Victory" prepared within the scope of the Malazgirt Battlefield Identification, Historical and Archaeological Survey Project, which was carried out in order to determine the exact area where the Battle of Malazgirt was fought and our Rector Prof. Dr. Mustafa Alican was also under the management of the project, will be held at our University.

Coşkun Aral and Murat Toy directed the documentary prepared within the scope of the project, which started in 2020 and is now hosted by our university with the cooperation of more than 40 scientists from 12 universities. In the documentary, where the historical environment the war took place is visualised, all archaeological studies carried out throughout the project are included. The documentary brings together all the details about the project with the audience, especially the answers to the questions: Which traces are the project team pursuing on the Malazgirt Plateau, what kind of work is being carried out in the project, which has entered its fourth year, what does the data obtained so far say about the Battle of Malazgirt? In the documentary, which traces the Malazgirt Victory, the narratives of our Rector Prof. Dr. Mustafa Alican, who is an expert on Seljuk History, and Prof. Dr. Adnan Çevik, who is the academic advisor of the project, are also included.
Stating that the necessary preparations have been made to hold the Muş premiere of the documentary, which was first screened on Habitat TV in recent months, at our university, Rector Alican said, "This project, which started to illuminate the historical identity of the city of Malazgirt and entered its fourth year as of 2023, is closely followed by many scientists who contribute to battlefield archaeology in the world. With this project, we will increase the historical and cultural studies in this geography. First of all, we need to change our minds, we need to know what we are doing and what importance we attach to this geography. I would like to thank Coşkun Aral and Murat Toy, who brought all the work done by our young and dynamic project team to the audience in this documentary, and to everyone who supported the screening at our university. We are waiting for all Muş people to the premiere screening."
