Kayalı (Kurdish: Kefşîn;[2][a] Syriac: Kefshenne)[3][b] is a village in the İdil District of Şırnak Province in Turkey.[5] The village is populated by Kurds of the Dorikan tribe and had a population of 433 in 2021.[1][6]

History

Kefshenne (today called Kayalı) was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Assyrians.[7] In 1914, the village was inhabited by 200 Assyrians, according to the list presented to the Paris Peace Conference by the Assyro-Chaldean delegation.[8] There were 25–30 Assyrian families in 1915.[9] They had had an Assyrian landlord, Hano Basuski.[10] It was located in the kaza of Jazirat Ibn ʿUmar.[8] Amidst the Sayfo, the Assyrians fled with all their property to Azakh after having been warned by the Muslim villagers to flee for their own safety.[10] They returned to Kefshenne after the war, but later emigrated to Mosul in Iraq.[10] The village was subsequently seized by Kurds.[11] By 1987, there were no remaining Assyrians.[12]
