The Battle of Preveza (1538): Ottoman Naval Supremacy Sealed In this short excerpt from our full length video- Barbarossa: Scourge of the Mediterranean, we look at an important naval engagement that established the Ottoman Navy as a maritime power. In 1538, off the coast of western Greece, one of the most decisive naval battles in Mediterranean history unfolded.
