History

Grebya (today called Söğütlü) was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Christians.[6] In the Syriac Orthodox patriarchal register of dues of 1870, it was recorded that the village had 12 households, who paid 63 dues, and did not have a church or a priest.[7] In 1914, it was populated by 300 Syriacs, according to the list presented to the Paris Peace Conference by the Assyro-Chaldean delegation.[8] There were 10 Syriac families in 1915.[9] Amidst the Sayfo, the Syriacs were escorted to safety at Hebob by Agha Hassan of Grebya.[2] The village had around 30 Turoyo-speaking Christian families in 1968.[10] Kurdish was also spoken by some in the village.[10] By 1987, there were no remaining Syriacs.[9]
