History

[edit]

Bāšnīq (today called Bağdere) was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Christians and Armenians.[2] In the Syriac Orthodox patriarchal register of dues of 1870, it was recorded that the village had sixty-three households that owed dues, of whom twelve paid, and had no priests.[1] There was a church of Yūldaṯ Alohō.[1] In 1914, there were 200 Syriacs at Bāšnīq, according to the list presented to the Paris Peace Conference by the Assyro-Chaldean delegation.[6]
