Finally, he is captured at a church in Boulgarophygon (modern Turkey), and is publicly blinded.[1][2][3]
- Winter – Constantine IX allows the Pecheneg tribes to cross the Danube and settle permanently in Byzantine territory. He buys their alliance with presents, using them to attack his enemies (Bulgars and Magyars) in the rear, and so to prevent any southward advance of the Kievan Rus'.[4][5][6]
