Odabaşı (Kurdish: Gündkē Şukro, lit. 'village of Şukro';[2][a] Syriac: Qritho di'Ito)[b] is a village in the municipality and district of Nusaybin, Mardin Province in Turkey.[6] The village is populated by Assyrians and by Kurds of the Mizizex and Omerkan tribes.[7] It had a population of 686 in 2021.[1][8][9]

Etymology

The Syriac name of the village is derived from "qritho" ("village" in Syriac) and "'ito" ("church" in Syriac), and thus translates to "village of the church".[10]

History

Qritho di'Ito (today called Odabaşı) was inhabited by 50 Assyrian families in 1915.[4] Most of the Assyrians in the village originated in Hebob.[11] The Assyrians at Qritho di'Ito adhered to the Syriac Orthodox Church.[12] The village was known for the production of cotton and was owned by the Malke Gawriye family.[11]

Amidst the Sayfo, in April, 15 soldiers and the Turkish commander Sheyhe Dolmaji came to the village seeking deserters from the army, but after having tortured some deserters, the commander was killed and the soldiers chased off by the villagers who subsequently took their valuables and found refuge at Hebob.[11] Assyrian refugees from the village of Qewetla who had fled to Qritho di'Ito before continuing on to Beth-Debe were all killed by Al-Khamsin militia under Qaddur Bey and Dakshuri Kurds.[11]

The village had a population of 516 in 1960.[2] In 1966, Qritho di'Ito was inhabited by 600 Turoyo-speaking Christians in 90 families.[2] The village had 800 Turoyo-speakers at one point in the 1960s.[13] By 1987, there were 40 Assyrian families at Qritho di'Ito.[4]
