Nyêrib ve Sivan'ın Kavgası

सामग्री चेतावनी

şiddet; ölüm

उल्लेखित लोग

Xalef Ağa; Avdulah Ağa; Mela Ahmed/Qafon; Huseyin; Hayder Ağa; Sele.

ऐतिहासिक संदर्भ

Bu anlatı Sivan/Servi-Palu hattı ile Nyêrib/Hani hattı arasındaki yerel çatışma hafızasını birleştirir. Horsig adı, Sivan köy listesinde Horsik (bugünkü Saklıca) olarak görünen yerle büyük olasılıkla aynıdır. Metindeki Xalef Ağa'ya 'Hyêni'de kavga ettin' uyarısı, bu anlatıyı Nyêrib-Hyêni kavgasından sonra konumlandırır; bu nedenle en uygun tarih aralığı yaklaşık 1820-1853'tür.

अनुसंधान टिप्पणी

Sivan/Servi, Horsig/Horsik/Saklıca ve Nyêrib/Nerib/Kuyular eşleştirmeleri kaynakla desteklenir. Şelê adı bu anlatıda Hani tarafındaki Şelli/Turalı köyleriyle daha iyi örtüşür; Kiepert haritasında da Hani'nin kuzeydoğusunda, Gjaurköi çevresinde Schel/Schel'e benzeyen bir ad görünür. Kelan için en güçlü aday, Sivan köy listelerindeki Kelahsı/Kelaxsi, bugünkü Doğanlı'dır; Tawricyê için modern karşılık henüz kesinleşmemiştir.
