Anıtlı (Arabic: حاح; Syriac: ܚܐܚ, romanized: Ḥāḥ)^[2] is a neighbourhood in the municipality and district of Midyat, Mardin Province in Turkey.^[3] It is located in the historical region of Tur Abdin.

In the village, there are churches of Mor Sobo and of Yoldath Aloho.^[4]

History

Ḥāḥ (today called Anıtlı) is identified as the settlement of Khabkhi.^[6] The Assyrian king Ashurnasirpal II extracted tribute of cattle, sheep, wine, cooking-pots, tubs, and bronze armour from the land of Khabkhi during his campaign against Nairi in 879 BC.^[7] Zazabukha was located in the territory of Khabkhi.^[7]

The Syriac Orthodox patriarch and historian Michael the Syrian named Iyawannis Musa, bishop of Ḥāḥ, as a former student of the Mor Hananyo Monastery in his Chronicle.^[8] Sarjis Qar'uni was metropolitan bishop of Ḥāḥ from 1484 to his death in 1508.^[9]

The mayor of Ḥāḥ was assassinated by Islamic extremists on 29 November 1993.^[10]

Demography

The village had a population of 148 in 2021.^[1] It is populated by Assyrians who belong to the Syriac Orthodox Church.^[11]^[12] They traditionally spoke Kurdish but Turoyo language has since become more prominent amongst young people.^[13] A number of villagers emigrated abroad to Germany and France in the late 20th century.^[13]

The following is a list of the number of Assyrian families that have inhabited Ḥāḥ per year stated.
