The Battle of Mardia, also known as Battle of Campus Ardiensis, was fought in late 316/early 317 between the forces of Roman Emperors Constantine I and Licinius. Constantine won the battle, and, according to a peace signed on 1 March 317, Licinius ceded territory to him, and had to execute Valerius Valens, whom Licinius had appointer Caesar before the battle. The peace lasted for about seven years.
