History
Zimmarih (today called Bozburun) was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Assyrians.[4] At the time of the Sayfo in the First World War, 20 Assyrian families inhabited the village.[3] The village was reportedly inhabited by 120 Assyrians, according to the Assyro-Chaldean delegation to the Paris Peace Conference.[7] Musa Fatme, chief of the Dayran clan, protected 40 Assyrians amidst the massacres and escorted them to safety at Beth Sbirino.[8]
