History

[edit | edit source]

Qaṣabah Ḥazrū (today called Hazro) was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Christians and Kurdish-speaking Armenians.[7] In the Syriac Orthodox patriarchal register of dues of 1870, it was recorded that the village had 10 households, who paid 10 dues, and did not have a church or a priest.[3] There were 176 Armenian hearths in 1880.[8] There were Armenian churches of Surb Astvatsatsin and Surb Shmavon.[8]

200 Armenian Orthodox families from Hazro fled to Diyarbakır in June 1889, abandoning their harvests, homes, and all of their possessions, to escape the violence inflicted by Agha Seweddin Bey.[9] It was located in the kaza (district) of Silvan in the Diyarbekir sanjak in the Diyarbekir vilayet in c. 1900.[4] In 1914, it was populated by 200 Syriacs, according to the list presented to the Paris Peace Conference by the Assyro-Chaldean delegation.[10] The Armenians were attacked by the Belek, Bekran, Şegro, and other Kurdish tribes in May 1915 amidst the Armenian genocide.[11]

In the local elections in March 2019, Ahmet Çevik from the Kurdish Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) was elected Mayor.[12] He was dismissed in November 2019 and the District Governor Ali Öner was appointed as trustee.[13]
