'''Mykhailo Doroshenko'''(?–1628) was the [[Hetman]] of the registered [[Ukrainian Kozaks]] from 1623–28. He was elevated to the rank of [[Ukrainian Kozak|Kozak]] colonel in 1616, and he was active in [[Petro Konashevych]]'s wars against [[Muscovy]]. He personally participated in the [[Battle of Khotyn]] in 1621. Just after Doroshenko was elected hetman of the registered Cossacks, he signed the controversial [[Treaty of Kurukove]] with the [[Polish]] crown in 1625. This led him to conflicts with the [[Zaporozhian Kozaks]] who had opposed the treaty. Doroshenko oversaw the establishment of six registered regiments. He died while his armies besieged the city of [[Kaffa]] in [[Crimea]], fighting against the [[Turkish]] supporters of the [[Moldavian]] [[murza]] [[Cantemir]].
