Battle of Sikkak

The Battle of Sikkak was fought on 6 July 1836[2] at the Sikkak river in western Algeria between French forces under General Thomas Robert Bugeaud,and a coalition of Algerian tribes of western Algeria under Emir Abd al-Qadir, who had in the previous year defeated the French at the Battle of Macta.

Treaty of Tafna was latter negotiated between the two commanders of this battle.

[2][3] The battle represents the last large clash of forces between France and the forces of Abd al-Qadir, though with intermittent peace agreements he would continue to wage a low intensity conflict against French rule until his surrender in 1847.
