History
editThe village is a former Assyrian settlement that is chiefly populated by the Mhallami today. In the 1910s, many Mhallamis from the village migrated to Lebanon for economic reasons, while some Mhallami and Kurdish families settled in the village afterwards. The Kurdish families came from Kerboran and neighboring villages.[6]
