Death in Algiers, 1568
The Siege of Malta was also the final mission of Salih Reis, who was around 77 years old at that time. He died in Algiers 3 years later, in 1568, close to the age of 80, just like his lifelong friend Turgut Reis.
Interestingly, Turgutlu and Salihli are two neighbouring town centers within the Province of Manisa in the Aegean Region of Turkey.
