History
Haberli is an Assyrian Syriac Orthodox village of thirty clans who historically was under the patronage of Kurds of the Salihan tribe. Most of the population migrated to Germany after the Assyrian genocide and only 25 households remained by 2016. Some families consider themselves members of the Salihan tribe.[5]
There were 900 speakers of Turoyo in the village in 1984.[6]
In the 9th century BC, the Assyrian king Ashurnasirpal II and his successor Shalmaneser III both described passing the Pass of Ištarāte on marches with their armies, which has been identified with the pass near Haberli.[7]
