History

Jarahia (today called Yuvalı) was historically inhabited by Chaldean Catholic Assyrians and Armenians.[6] In 1914, there were 100 Assyrians, according to the list presented to the Paris Peace Conference by the Assyro-Chaldean delegation.[7] It was located in the kaza of Jazirat Ibn ʿUmar.[7] Amidst the Sayfo, the village was attacked and the Christians were killed by Kurds of the Mamman tribe on 18 June 1915.[8]
