Ο κατεπάνω/δουξ της Μεσοποταμίας αποτελούσε προφανώς προϊστάμενο διοικητή διαφόρων στρατηγών, οι οποίοι ήλεγχαν τις επιμέρους μικρότερες και μεγαλύτερες στρατιωτικές διοικήσεις της ευρύτερης περιοχής, όπως π.χ. των διαφόρων αρμενι(α)κών θεμάτων, δύο εκ των οποίων ήταν οπωσδήποτε και τα προαναφεθέντα Χοζάνον και Ρωμανούπολις1096. Ο Η.-J. Kühn και κυρίως ο J.F. Haldon θεωρούν ότι στην αρμοδιότητα του δουκός Μεσοποταμίας είχαν υπαχθεί οι περιφέρειες Αβάρας, Λάρισσας, Μελιτηνής, Χοζάνου, Ρωμανουπόλεως, Χαρπεζικίου, Χαυζιζίου ή Χαβτζίτζιν, Χασαναρά (αρμ. Sewerakk‘, αραβ. al-Suwaida, συρ. Sēbābērāk, σημερ. Süverek)1097, Τζαμανδού, Ζερμίου, Ερκνή, Καλουδ(ίων) (αρχ. Κλαυδιάς, αραβ. Hisn Qalaudia), Χορτζινής ή Κορτζενής ή Χορζηνηνής, Κοπτού, Τάραντα, Εξακωμίας, Κάμα(ς), Λιμνίων, Μουζαρίου και Χαντιάρτη1098. Θα πρέπει να σημειωθεί ωστόσο ότι η συγκεκριμένη διοικητική και στρατιωτική διευθέτηση έπαψε ουσιαστικά να υφίσταται κατά τον 11ο αι., μετά την ίδρυση του κατεπανάτου Ιβηρίας στα ανατολικά και του δουκάτου Εδέσσης στα νότια.
