History

[edit]

Al-Krīdiyyah (today called Kösetarla) was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Christians and Kurdish-speaking Armenians.[6] In the Syriac Orthodox patriarchal register of dues of 1870, it was recorded that the village had 6 households, who paid 13 dues, and did not have a church or a priest.[7] There were 60 Armenian hearths in 1880.[8] There was an Armenian church of Surb Karapet.[8] In 1914, it was populated by 200 Syriacs, according to the list presented to the Paris Peace Conference by the Assyro-Chaldean delegation.[9] It was located in the kaza of Beşiri.[9] The Armenians were attacked by the Belek, Bekran, Şegro, and other Kurdish tribes in May 1915 amidst the Armenian genocide.[10]
