Yediyol (Kurdish: Tirzoqê; Syriac: Helqāmiyyah)[2][a] is a village in the Batman District of Batman Province in Turkey.[4] The village is populated by Kurds of the Reşkotan tribe and had a population of 43 in 2021.[1][5]
History
Helqāmiyyah (today called Yediyol) 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 1 household, who paid 5 dues, and did not have a priest.[2] There was a Syriac Orthodox church of Morī Eliyyō.[2] In 1914, it was populated by 300 Syriacs, according to the list presented to the Paris Peace Conference by the Assyro-Chaldean delegation.[7] It was located in the kaza (district) of Beşiri.[7] The Armenians were attacked by the Belek, Bekran, Şegro, and other Kurdish tribes in May 1915 amidst the Armenian genocide.[8]
