History

Nehrî was a sub-provincial centre and a small emirate in the 19th century ruled by the seyyids of Nehrî. The seyyids of Nehrî were an influential Naqshbandi Sheikh family whose leader Sheikh Sayyid Taha I gained influence after the defeat of Bedir Khan Beg in 1847, by inciting violence against Nestorians. The son of Sheikh Taha, Sheikh Ubeydullah was one of the most influential Kurdish leaders in the early 20th century by inciting the first nationalist Kurdish uprising against the Ottomans.[5] Today, the village is populated by an unrelated Kurdish family as the land was confiscated by the central government after the uprising.
