History
Zimmarih (today called Bozburun) was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Assyrians. In 1914, 120 Assyrians inhabited the village, according to the Assyro-Chaldean delegation to the Paris Peace Conference. There were 20 Assyrian families in 1915. It was located in the kaza (district) of Midyat. It served as the residence of Musa Fatme, chief of the Dayran clan. Amidst the Sayfo, Musa Fatme gave asylum to 40 Assyrian refugees and he and his family escorted them in two groups to safety at Beth Sbirino. By 1987, there were no remaining Assyrians.
