History
[edit]Pīrōz (today called Taşdibek) was historically inhabited by adherents of the Church of the East and Chaldean Catholics.[8] Peter Mīkhā'īl Bartatar of Khosrowa, Chaldean Catholic metropolitan of Seert, died at the village in 1884.[3] In the same year, Stephen Yōḥannān Qaynāyā, superior of the Monastery of Mār Ya‘qōb the Recluse, visited the village with the priest Paul al-Jādir of Seert and a detachment of Turkish soldiers to convince the villagers to return the body of Peter Mīkhā'īl Bartatar of Khosrowa for burial at Seert.[9]
In 1913, it was populated by 300 Chaldean Catholics, who were served by the Church of Mart Shmūni and one priest as part of the Chaldean Catholic Eparchy of Seert.[10] According to Agha Petros's list, there were 62 households that belonged to the Church of the East as part of the district of Ispirad.[11] Amidst the Sayfo, the village's inhabitants were killed in early June 1915 by the aghas of Aro and their bands.[12] The Christian population endured until 1968, in which year they took refuge at Midyat until 1972, before moving to Istanbul for five years, and then on to France in 1980.[13]
