Levon II (also known as Leo II or Leon II, later styled as King Leo I, c. 1236–1289) was the King of Cilician Armenia from 1269 to 1289, succeeding his father, Hetoum I. He continued his father’s pro-Mongol policies, securing Cilicia as a key ally of the Ilkhanate while facing threats from the Mamluks. His reign was marked by both military struggles and economic growth, fostering trade with Europe and strengthening ties with the Crusader states. Levon also promoted Armenian culture and law, commissioning legal codifications. He died in 1289, leaving a relatively stable kingdom to his son, Hetoum II.
