History
Bāmitnī (today called Kutlu) was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Christians and Kurdish-speaking Armenians.[8] In the Syriac Orthodox patriarchal register of dues of 1870, it was recorded that the village had 10 households, who paid 39 dues, and did not have a church or a priest.[1] There were 10 Armenian hearths in 1880.[9] There was an Armenian church of Surb Khach.[9]
It was located in the kaza (district) of Lice in the Diyarbekir sanjak in the Diyarbekir vilayet in c. 1900.[10] In 1914, it was populated by 100 Syriacs, according to the list presented to the Paris Peace Conference by the Assyro-Chaldean delegation.[11] The Armenian and Syriac population was destroyed in 1915 amidst the Armenian genocide and Sayfo, respectively.[12]
The village supported the Sheikh Said rebellion in 1925 and was targeted by the authorities who killed the inhabitants and destroyed the village.[7]
