The Eyalet of Kefe or Caffa (Ottoman Turkish: ایالت كفه, romanized: Eyālet-i Kefê)[1] was an eyalet of the Ottoman Empire. The eyalet stretched across the northern coast of the Black Sea with the main sanjak (Pasha sanjak) being located in the southern coast of Crimea. The eyalet was under direct Ottoman rule, completely separate from the Khanate of Crimea.[2] Its capital was at Kefe, the Turkish name for Caffa (modern Feodosiya in Crimea).
