Uğur (Kurdish: Tilebêr;[2] Syriac: Tlībel)[3][a] is a village in the Cizre District of Şırnak Province in Turkey.[5] The village is populated by Kurds of the Aluwa tribe and had a population of 207 in 2021.[1]

History

Tlībel (today called Uğur) 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 20 households, who did not pay any dues, and it did not have a church or a priest.[3] It was located in the Cizre kaza in the Mardin sanjak in the Diyarbekir vilayet in c. 1900.[6] In 1914, the village was populated by 300 Syriacs, according to the list presented to the Paris Peace Conference by the Assyro-Chaldean delegation.[7] There were 50 Syriac Orthodox families who belonged to the diocese of Jezire.[8] Amidst the Sayfo, only two people survived the onslaught as they had been hidden by their Kurdish servants.[8] The village was subsequently seized by Kurds.[9]
