History

Bāzarī was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Christians. In the Syriac Orthodox patriarchal register of dues of 1870, it was recorded that the village had ten households, who paid fifty-one dues, and did not have a church or a priest. It was populated by 300 Syriacs in 1914, as per the list presented to the Paris Peace Conference by the Assyro-Chaldean delegation. There were ten Syriac families in 1915. Amidst the Sayfo, the Syriacs were escorted to safety at Basibrin. By 1987, there were no remaining Syriacs.
