Hi,
My name is Samuel, new to the forum, I am planning at trip to the Hakkari region this summer (2007) and I need your help.
1) PURPOSE of the trip is to find a Nestorian village (pre 1915) called Mar Bisho or Mar Bishnaye or the Der Mar Biosho. I will need all the information you have on it, please ask around, elders, grandfathers....
I know, from a 1910 English map that it's near modern Esendere (near the Turko-Iranian border)... but that's all I know.
2) Is there Assyrian people living in the Gawar region? in the area of Yukesova, Hakkari (city), Semdinli?
3) does anyone have a map of the villages in the Hakkari region... I mean villages, like small towns.. I need a detailed map. Please, I already have the Assyrian villages maps, what I need it modern villages map.. kurdish villages...
If you have any advice on the trip, please tell me about it.
I know many of you know what I am talking about, I absolutely need your help.
thank you so much,
Sam
