Selim II

Selim II, aka Selim the Sot, was the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire that ruled from 1566 to 1574. It is due to his actions that the Golden Fleece lost all of its powers.

Biography
Sometime in sixteenth century, something horrible occurred. It was due to Sultan Sulayman's successor, Selim II (a.k.a Selim the Sot), an indolent drunkard who had many concubines. One night he became enraged at the crying of his youngest child while in his harem. He proceeded to smother the child using the fleece of a ram. The fleece was actually the golden fleece which had now been desecrated so it ceased to exert its magical influence. After that it was all downhill for the Ottoman Empire. The useless fleece was forgotten, probably chucked into some dusty storeroom in Topkapi Palace.

In 1939, while searching though Topkapi Palace, Indiana Jones discovered Selim's Water Bottle.
