Mount Nemrut is 2,000 meters high and is located in the Adıman province in southern Turkey. It is part of the Taurus Mountain ring, on the bank of the Euphrates River. On its summit is a temple, built in 62 BC. It is surrounded by two large statues of two lions, two statues of two falcons, and many Greek statues. and armenian. In 1987, Mount Nemrut was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. It was visited by 52 thousand people. The mountain is the best location in the world to watch the sunrise and sunset during the first nine months of this year. Mustafa Akinci, Director of Culture and Tourism in Adıman, said that 52,000 people visited the mountain in 9 months, including 2,000 foreign tourists. The story of Nimrod was mentioned in the Holy Qur’an, and the name Nimrod was not mentioned in the Qur’anic text, but commentators, such as al-Tabari, linked the Babylonian king Nimrod and the king who was challenged by the Prophet Ibrahim, peace be upon him, in the suras of the Prophets and the Cow, while some historians and commentators questioned Nimrod’s historical relationship With the tyrant king who was mentioned in the Qur’an, Nimrod was considered one of the giant legends and symbolized the forces of evil, as many of the heritage cities in Iraq were named after him.
The huge building in Mount Nemrut consists of a group of rock slabs that form something like a pyramid, and the eastern and western parts of it are terraces that lead to an open temple, and on these terraces there are huge statues of lions and falcons, and 5 huge statues of the gods that they worshiped, including 4 men. and a woman, which is the most attractive thing preserved in this place.
The royal temple, which was founded on the mountain by King Antiochus I, clearly embodies the culture of syncretism that was common at that time in the Hellenistic kingdoms, by merging statues of Greek and Persian gods in uniform clothing, which is a reference to equality between faiths, to merge the Persian and Greek peoples, However, the mountain is mysterious in terms of its religious meanings, the reasons for its establishment, and the religion that was followed in the Kingdom.
Researchers believe that the monument was originally established with two large spaces, the first on the eastern side, and was used to celebrate the birthday of King Antiochus I, and the other on the western side, was used to celebrate the founding anniversary, in the year 62 BC, the day on which it is believed that King Antiochus became A member of the secret religious order, of the Kingdom of Commajin. The Kingdom of Commagene, meaning community of the living, existed as an independent kingdom from Mithridates Kallenchus I, at the beginning of the first century BC. The importance of the kingdom emerged during the reign of Antiochus Epiphanes, son of Mithridates Calencus (62-32 BC). In 62 BC, the temple was built on top of the mountain, and was guarded by two large statues of two lions, two statues of two falcons, and many Greek, Armenian, and Persian gods. Each deity had his name written on it, and when the temple was discovered, the heads of the statues were separated from the statues and lying on the ground, indicating that they were deliberately damaged.[1]

Two minaret Mosque or in Kurdish language (Du Minara)
It is a mosque in the city of Saqqez, 1750 AD. The old Mosque of Du Minara is located in the city of Saqqez in Sanandaj Governorate, east of Kurdistan. The mosque with two minarets leads from the north to a three-meter-wide alley bordered by Naryn Castle, from the south to the open Hazkhana area, from the west to a four-meter-wide corridor, and from the east to a one-meter-wide alley corridor. The history of building the Du Minara Mosque dates back to the end of the Afsharid rule and the beginning of the Zand rule of eastern Kurdistan. And local narrations say that the Afshari king Nader Shah , while passing through the city of Saqqez on his way to Baghdad, ordered the construction of this mosque, in response to the request of the Kurdish sheikh (Sheikh Hassan Mulanabad), who wanted to build a mosque for the people of Saqqez, and it is still there. Some of the city\'s residents call this mosque the name Sheikh Hassan Mulanabad Mosque, And Sheikh Hassan Mulan Abad was one of the most famous mystics and mathematicians in Kurdistan during the days of Afshari rule. Nadir Shah Al-Afshari met him when he passed through the Saqqez region during his travel to Baghdad, and during that meeting Sheikh Hassan Molanabad asked Nadir Shah to build a mosque for the people of Saqqez, and Nadir Shah agreed to his request. Nadir Shah also presented Sheikh Hassan Mulan with two inlaid canes and a beautiful colored leather tablecloth. These gifts are still kept in the village Mulanabad, the birthplace of Sheikh Hassan Mulanabad, where his grave is also located in that village. There is also a handwritten volume of the Holy Qur’an in the shrine of Sheikh Hassan Mulanabad, dating back to the end of the Afshari period of eastern Kurdistan. Most of the homes in this area are located on a sloped roof. And in order for the mosque to be built on a flat surface, a platform of rubble stones with a height of about 4 to 4.5 meters was created before the mosque was built, then the mosque was built on this stone platform, In front of the mosque there is a gallery that is believed to have been used to perform prayers in the summer seasons. The engineering design of the Du Minara mosque is square in shape, and the materials used in its construction are: raw clay, mortar shells, rubble stones, bricks, and wood , The entrance to the mosque is located in the western part, as for the entrance gate, it is built of bricks with Chinese knot weaving and yellow tiles, and this indicates that the date of building the entrance gate of the mosque dates back to the beginning of the Kurdish Zand era (1750 AD - 1794 AD), And through the entrance door, it is possible to access the portico of the mosque directly, through a graded corridor consisting of 9 stairs, In the courtyard of the mosque there are two minarets located in the eastern part of that corridor, which can be accessed through a separate door. And the height of the roof of the courtyard is 2.8 meters, which is based, like the rest of the mosques in that area, on four round wooden columns. The roof of this mosque was thatched until the year 1985 AD, and in that year the straw cover was removed and its roof was completely asphalted. Most of the sections of the mosque date back to the end of the Afsharid period of rule and the beginning of the Zandi period and the characteristics of that era. According to these interpretations, we can confirm that the mosque is linked to the Afsharid and Zandi periods. It was rebuilt and minor repairs were carried out in the following ages.[1]

The staircase revolves around it, as one enters through the aforementioned two doors to ascend to the top of the lighthouse. The number of steps for each ladder is 132 from each side. There is no convergence between them except in the floor of the lighthouse and above. The lighthouse, so that two people can go up or down at the same time without seeing each other, and the lighthouse has a window in the middle of its height on the eastern side for air movement. According to some circulating narrations, Al-Muzaffariya Minaret was approximately 45 meters high, and that was before the upper part of it was hit by a lightning bolt in the spring season, when lightning, thunder, and rain showers abound in the city of Erbil and its suburbs, and the thunderbolt was spared from about 8 meters high, There is a folk tale narrated from generation to generation about Al-Muzaffariya Lighthouse and the purpose of building the two staircases in it, and the reasons for the similarity between it and other lighthouses in Kurdistan. Among them, it is narrated that the engineer who executed the lighthouse was a student of the engineer of Daqouq Lighthouse located in the south of the city of Kirkuk, but as a result of a dispute between him and his teacher during the construction of Daqouq Lighthouse, the student leaves his teacher, and builds the Muzaffariya Lighthouse in Erbil , which was later called the Çolî lighthouse, which means the lighthouse of the wilderness in the Kurdish language, because of the lighthouse’s distance from the Citadel of Erbil and the residential neighborhoods surrounding it, and the student realizes that his teacher will definitely visit him after hearing the news of the construction of this lighthouse, so he prepares for that visit From the beginning, he expects envy and grudge from his teacher if he sees this lofty building that was built in a better way than his teacher built for the Daquq minaret, and that his teacher will come later to see the minaret, so he thinks of building two staircases inside the cylinder of the minaret, and when his teacher visits the city of Erbil, the professor asks his student They climb the minaret together, so the teacher begins to climb from the first staircase without realizing that there is a second staircase, while the student climbs from the second staircase, and they meet at the top of the minaret, and then the student realizes that his teacher is in an abnormal psychological state, so the student gets scared and rushes down the stairs. The first, and the professor believes that the second staircase meets the first on the way down, so he chooses the second, and they meet again on the ground, and there are people following the event, then the professor in front of the people congratulates his student on this achievement, and travels to the city of Mosul to build a better lighthouse than his student. He builds a lighthouse, and concludes that its lighthouse is tilted and is expected to fall at any moment, but he failed in his endeavor, and that lighthouse was called the Al-Hadba Lighthouse. here are old pictures of the Mudhaffariyya minaret dating back to the mid-twentieth century AD, in which the minaret appears to be alone in an open courtyard. While the lighthouse is now in the center of the city of Erbil, as a result of the wide urban movement that Erbil witnessed after the year 1991 AD, and then the rapid reconstruction movement of the city after the year 2003 AD, And in the year 2009 AD, an Italian company, in cooperation with the Department of Antiquities of the Kurdistan Ministry of Culture, restored Al-Muzaffariya Minaret to protect it from falling, because its floor had recently become soft and fragile, and it is now considered one of the archaeological symbols and tourist attractions in the city of Erbil.[1]

It is a royal palace and the place of residence of Karim Khan Zand, the founder of the Kurdish Zand state, which took the city of Shiraz as its capital. The castle of Karim Khan Zand was built between the years 1766 and 1767 AD, by order of the founder of the Kurdish Zand state (Karim Khan Zand). To build the castle, Karim Khan Zand brought in the best architects, sculptors and technicians from all over the country. And because the castle was the residence of (Karim Khan Zand), the architecture of military construction and residential construction was mixed in its design. Where the external walls were constructed, as in the camps, with a height of 15 meters, and a thickness of 3 meters, and they are conical-shaped walls at the bottom and at the top there is a place for the military to settle. The eastern side of the castle is a relatively high wall, as the main entrance is located in the middle of it. And above the entrance gate there is a painting representing (Rustam\'s struggle with the white genie) made of painted ceramics. The internal parts of the castle consist of the king\'s private bathroom, the corridor, and the guard room, which is also built behind the wall. In front of the hall, there are two wooden columns in front of which is a four-sided water basin. The materials used in construction are mostly a mixture of molded clay and stones. Interior decorations and decorations, including frames and shelves, are all built of alabaster stone brought from the cities of Yazd and Tabriz, large mirrors from Russia, Anatolia and Europe, The drawings on the ceiling are painted with gold and lapis lazuli, vegetable and mineral colors. The building of the castle consists of buildings with three halls, and the entrance section is for service matters. After the decline of the Kurdish Zand state and the emergence of the Qajar state, the castle (Karim Khan Zand) was utilized as the government house and the place of stability for governors and rulers in Shiraz, and this situation continued until the beginning of the emergence of the Pahlavi state in the year 1925 AD. And during the era of the Pahlavi state, the castle was used between the years (1925 AD - 1941 AD) as a central prison in Shiraz, where the large halls were divided into small rooms for that purpose. The well-known revolutionary (Shamad Lawri) was imprisoned in this majestic castle and then escaped from it, who was revolting against the Pahlavi government. In the year 1971 AD, the castle was handed over to the Iranian National Heritage Department, and maintenance operations began and it was converted into a national museum in the Iranian city of Shiraz.[1]

Mosque (Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi) in the city of Urfa, 1185 AD
Mosque (Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi) in the city of Urfa, 1185 AD.
The Salah Al-Din Al-Ayyubi Mosque is located in the Kurdish city of Urfa.
It is considered one of the historical mosques in Kurdistan, and one of the most important Kurdish Islamic monuments. The Great Mosque (Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi) was established in the twelfth century AD, on the remains of the Church (St. John the Baptist), which was built in the year 457 AD, by Bishop (Nuna) during the days of the Byzantine rule. He supervised the construction of the mosque and supported it, the Kurdish Sultan Yusuf ibn Ayyub (Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi) himself. And due to the fact that the Sultan (Saladin Al-Ayyubi) used the first church as a mosque for a period, the mosque was named after him. The historic Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi mosque in the Kurdish city of Urfa is a model of Ayyubid Kurdish architecture, which is characterized by austerity and lack of extravagance in decoration, due to the wars taking place at the time with the Crusaders. The architecture of the (Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi) mosque in the city of Urfa is characterized by strength, mastery of planning and accuracy with apparent luxury, and reliance on carved stone of large dimensions as a basic material in facades, columns and crowns. And the main prayer hall is lit by windows, and on the edges of the windows there are half-columns remaining from the church and dragon inscriptions interwoven into each other. The mosque is characterized by the fact that it has neither a minaret nor a dome, and it contains a pulpit, a mihrab, and ancient arches and arches, thus forming an architectural masterpiece in which the styles of ecclesiastical and Ayyubid architecture are mixed, so that the mosque remains until the present time a landmark that reminds the people of the city of Urfa that the historical Kurdish leader The Sultan (Saladin Al-Ayyubi, 1137 AD - 1193 AD) passed through here. Historians suggest the secret of the interest of the Sultan (Saladin Al-Ayyubi) in the city of Urfa to his preoccupation with fighting the Crusaders, and his realization of the importance of the Levant, its cities and its frontiers, as it is adjacent to the Byzantines, so he sought to rebuild it and revive its economy and build mosques and public facilities in it, including this mosque named after him in Urfa, who personally supervised its restoration after it was an old and famous church, he bought it from its people and turned it into the mosque that we see now. And the city of Urfa was considered within the Levant at that period, and the Kurds were and still constitute a high percentage of the population of the Levant. According to the Old Testament, Urfa is the city of the birth and life of the Prophet Ibrahim and the Prophet Ayoub, and there are many landmarks that show the stay of the Prophet Ibrahim in it. The building of the mosque (Saladin Al-Ayyubi) was in ruins for many years, and it was used as a power station, It was restored in the year 1993 AD. And it reopened on May 28, 1993 AD, for worship as a mosque. Some of the city’s sheikhs and elderly residents insist on performing prayers in the (Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi) mosque, although it is closer to being a museum of architecture and a historical place for tourists and those interested in history. Their insistence, as they say, is due to their love for Sultan Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi, and to what this mosque represents in terms of cohesion between the components of the social fabric in the city of Urfa.

Dalal Bridge
Dalal Bridge, in the city of Zakho.
In Kurdish language(Pira Dalal) is located on the eastern side of the city of Zakho in the Kurdistan Governorate of Dohuk. It is an old stone bridge spanning the Khabur River, at a height of about 15.5 meters. There are many sayings about the history of the construction of Dalal Bridge. Where Hammertin says that this bridge dates back to the period of Roman rule, And (Iskif) says that it dates back to the era of the Romans, and that the Roman commander (Seleucus) was the one who ordered its construction. And a number of Kurdish archaeologists say that one of the local Kurdish princes under the Roman rule built this bridge. (Dalal Bridge), which is about 114 meters long, 4.70 meters wide, and 15.5 meters above the river level, was built using large river stones, which are carved and striped stones. The bridge is formed of six axes in the form of a semi-circle, one of which is large in the middle, and five on its sides. As for its walls, it is built of large engraved stones, and due to the absence of writings and structures on it, so its history is not known yet. The naming of (Dalal Bridge) by this name is ancient for the people of the city of Zakho. Also, some of its people mention it under the name (The Great Bridge Pira Mezin) as well. And in the twentieth century AD, it was called (the Abbasid bridge Pira Ebaskî) by an official order from the governor (Qaimmaqam) of the city of Zakho.

The City of Hekmatan, 750 BC
The city of Hekmatana, 715 BC.
The ruins of the Kurdish Medieval city of Hekamatana (Tel Hekamatana) are located in the current Hamedan Governorate in eastern Kurdistan. Among the features of the ancient city of Hekmatana is the architecture and regular planning of this city, which is rare among the ancient works that were found. The works discovered at the site of this city indicate the presence of a regular and advanced water supply network in the spaces between the water supply channels. There were passages 3.5 meters wide, and the floor of these passages was completely paved with ordinary square bricks.
Research also showed that there are two series of building units at a distance of 35 meters between the corridors, each of which includes a central courtyard (hall), with similar rooms and warehouses around it, so that each building unit covers an area of ​​about 17.5 x 17.5 meters, and the aforementioned corridors are 3.5 meters wide. A foundation made of bricks spread over a large part of the hill and has a north-eastern direction to a south-western direction. The city of Hegmetane (in Median Kurdish) meaning (the gathering place), Hemetan (in Pahlavi-Sasanian Kurdish), Hemedan (in modern Kurdish), is one of the oldest Kurdish cities, which was the capital of the Median Kurds, The name of this Kurdish Median city was mentioned in the Greek sources in the form of Ecbatan, The Greek historian Herodotus, 484 BC - 425 BC, says that the city of Hekmatana, which was built by King Diako-Duk, the founder of the Median Kingdom (Mad Kingdom), has seven walls, each of which is painted in the color of one of the planets. According to the historian Herodotus, Hekematana was chosen as the capital of the Medes by King Duke Dahiuk at the end of the eighth century BC, And describes Herodotus the royal complex, including the palace, treasury, and military housing built on a hill, and says that this complex was built by seven concentric walls, each inner wall was higher than the outer wall and was controlled by the nobles, It has been shown in the archaeological excavations conducted in recent years in (Tell Hekmatana) that the site of the palace and the aforementioned buildings was located in the current (Tell Hekmatana), The scientific excavations at Tell Hekmatana date back to the year 1913 AD, when a French delegation led by Charles Fossey from the Louvre Museum in Paris conducted excavations at (Tell Hekmatana), but the results of these explorations were never published. During 10 seasons of excavations conducted from 1983 AD to 1999 AD, 14,000 square meters of the remains of the Kurdish city of Hekmatana, considered one of the centers of the oldest periods of human civilization, were excavated.
Parts of the huge city wall were also discovered, with a diameter of 9 meters and a height of 8 meters, with two huge and rare towers inside. And the discovery of that wall led to the identification of a large city in the heart of (Tell Hekmatana), which is the ancient city of Hekmatana, the capital of the Median Kurds (Mad Kingdom 700 BC - 550 BC), The continuation of the excavations at Tell Hekmatana revealed the presence of valuable and unique works that mostly belong to the Persian Achaemenid and Sasanian Kurdish periods. Due to the location of the city of Hekmatana and its strategic resources, it is likely that this area was inhabited before the first millennium BC, despite the lack of historical and archaeological evidence to prove this. Despite two centuries of conflict between the Medes and the Assyrians in the center of Zagros, the Assyrians did not provide any clear description of the Median Kurdish city of Hekmatana, and this indicates that the Assyrians could never advance towards the Median Kurdish lands located east of the Elwend River, while They took control of the Median Kurdish lands and cities located west of the Alwand river, such as the city of Arbil and the city of Kirkuk. The city of Hamedan (ancient Hekmatana) is the capital of the Medes, along with Athens, the capital of the Greeks, Rome, the capital of Italy, and Shush (Shushan-Susa), the capital of the Elamite Kurds, one of the few ancient cities in the world that are still alive and important.[1]

Citadel and city of Nabi Hori
Citadel and city of Nabi Hori
in Afrin region The ruins of the castle and the city of (Nabi Houri) are located 10 km north of the town of (Sharan) of the Afrin region - western Kurdistan.It is 45 km north-east of Afrin city. The ruins of the castle and the city of Nabi Houri consist of the ruins of an ancient city, on the northern and eastern slopes of a mountain elevation on which the castle of Nabi Houri was erected.On the western side of the site, on another mountain top, there are traces of a fort belonging to the castle, and it is said that there was a tunnel connecting them. In the south of the site there are hills of low height covered with olive trees. While in the north of the site dotted with beautiful Kurdish villages, And nothing remains of the old castle except for parts of its wall and some of the foundations and rooms of the towers in the corners of the castle wall, which are of the arched model. The castle has recently been restored. There are several designations for the location of the castle and city of Nabi Hori, as it is known locally as (Nabi Hori), while the Greek name for the ancient city is (Syros), and it was called (Agia Paulus), meaning the city of Saints Cosma and Damianos, and a church was built around their tombs. The Christian city of (Syros) was entered by (Simon the Zealot), who built a church in it and died and was buried in it. There is a religious narration about the name of the castle of Nabi Hori that says: It goes back to the name (Uria bin Hanan), one of the leaders of the Prophet David, who was killed in a battle that took place in the first millennium BC and was buried in it, and the events of the story of Prophet David with Uriah’s wife are known in religious literature to It ended at the hands of the Babylonians in the context of the (Medi-Babylonian) alliance and the fall of Nineveh. Also, Hori (Huri) is the name of an ancient Kurdish dynasty that appeared between the Zagros Mountains and the Taurus Mountains (northwest Kurdistan) between the years (2500 BC - 1000 BC) and established the (Kingdom of Mitan) in the middle of the second millennium BC, which ruled the entire northern section of the ancient Near East, There are several other sites in the Afrin region that bear the name (Hori), such as: the caves and ruins of Al-Huriyin near the village of Joqih, and Jabal Hawar, which is close to the name of Hori. (Hori Castle) was an important center for the worship of the gods Athena (the protector of Greece), whose symbol was the olive tree, and the gods Zeus (the god of thunderbolt), It is believed that the (Temple of Zeus) was on top of the mountain next to the mountain on which (Hori Castle) is located. Some sources believe that in the period before the period of Greek rule in the region there was a city in the same place as the city of (Nabi Huri), and most of the belief that it existed since the period of the Hurricane dynasty that established (Kingdom of Mitan), Accordingly, its current name has deep roots in the Hurrian Kurdish history. As for the modern city (Syros), the ruins of which still remain, it was built by the Greek leader (Slucus Nicator), the founder of the Greek Seleucid state in the East (312 BC - 64 BC). The city and castle of Hori went through many periods, including the Roman period, the Byzantine period, and the Islamic period. The oldest bridges near the castle and city of (Nabi Hori) are two bridges from the Roman era, dating back to the first or second century AD. It seems that the two bridges were restored more than once in different eras, especially in the Byzantine era. The two bridges are still serving the traffic in that area, but they are threatened with collapse due to the heavy traffic that runs over them. The first bridge is built on the Saboun River, east of the castle (Nabi Houri), 1.5 km away. It is 120 meters long. It has six openings, two of which are symmetrical, and a small seventh opening on the western side of the bridge. It was not mentioned by the modern written sources that described the bridge, perhaps because The opening is small and lonely at the western end of the bridge.
The second bridge is built on the Afrin River, east of the first bridge, at a distance of 1 kilometer, 92 meters long, and has three large openings.[1]

Mount Nemrut
Mount Nemrut
which is the highest open museum in the world, and its summit preserves the ruins of the Kingdom of Commagene dating back to the first century BC, attracted thousands of tourists in the tourism season that falls between April and October. Mount Nemrut is 2,000 meters high and is located in the Adıman province in southern Turkey. It is part of the Taurus Mountain ring, on the bank of the Euphrates River. On its summit is a temple, built in 62 BC. It is surrounded by two large statues of two lions, two statues of two falcons, and many Greek statues. and armenian. In 1987, Mount Nemrut was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. It was visited by 52 thousand people. The mountain is the best location in the world to watch the sunrise and sunset during the first nine months of this year. Mustafa Akinci, Director of Culture and Tourism in Adıman, said that 52,000 people visited the mountain in 9 months, including 2,000 foreign tourists. The story of Nimrod was mentioned in the Holy Qur’an, and the name Nimrod was not mentioned in the Qur’anic text, but commentators, such as al-Tabari, linked the Babylonian king Nimrod and the king who was challenged by the Prophet Ibrahim, peace be upon him, in the suras of the Prophets and the Cow, while some historians and commentators questioned Nimrod’s historical relationship With the tyrant king who was mentioned in the Qur’an, Nimrod was considered one of the giant legends and symbolized the forces of evil, as many of the heritage cities in Iraq were named after him.
The huge building in Mount Nemrut consists of a group of rock slabs that form something like a pyramid, and the eastern and western parts of it are terraces that lead to an open temple, and on these terraces there are huge statues of lions and falcons, and 5 huge statues of the gods that they worshiped, including 4 men. and a woman, which is the most attractive thing preserved in this place.
The royal temple, which was founded on the mountain by King Antiochus I, clearly embodies the culture of syncretism that was common at that time in the Hellenistic kingdoms, by merging statues of Greek and Persian gods in uniform clothing, which is a reference to equality between faiths, to merge the Persian and Greek peoples, However, the mountain is mysterious in terms of its religious meanings, the reasons for its establishment, and the religion that was followed in the Kingdom.
Researchers believe that the monument was originally established with two large spaces, the first on the eastern side, and was used to celebrate the birthday of King Antiochus I, and the other on the western side, was used to celebrate the founding anniversary, in the year 62 BC, the day on which it is believed that King Antiochus became A member of the secret religious order, of the Kingdom of Commajin. The Kingdom of Commagene, meaning community of the living, existed as an independent kingdom from Mithridates Kallenchus I, at the beginning of the first century BC.

In the year 1987 AD, the Sulaymaniyah Antiquities Directorate excavated the site (the ruins of the Bazian Strait Temple), and protected it from removal during the construction and expansion of the highway between Sulaymaniyah and Kirkuk.
During these excavations, the foundations and remains of the walls of the temple were revealed, along with a detailed description of the method used in its construction The structural sections, their areas, the corridors that permeate them, the niches, the corridors, and the remains of the traces of the columns, some of whose traces are still remaining, were studied. And Bazian Strait is considered one of the ancient archaeological sites in Kurdistan, and it is a mountain strait located in the Qardag mountain range, The strait is located between the city of Kirkuk and the city of Sulaymaniyah, as these areas in the past centuries were administratively affiliated to the city of Kirkuk.
This strait was mentioned in ancient history books. It is one of the important sites due to the strategy of its geographical location, and in all events it was a strong support for its Kurdish population who defended the region against the campaigns of the invading armies. And it has a historical feature among the Kurds, as it contains the site of (Burda Qahraman) whose relatives were wounded and captured by the King of Kurdistan Sheikh Mahmoud\'s grandson by the British forces. And the King of Kurdistan Sheikh Mahmoud\'s grandson at the beginning of the twentieth century AD, with his Kurdish fighting soldiers, resisted the British forces from the heights adjacent to this strait, and recorded the most wonderful heroic epics in the history of the Kurds for the sake of freedom and independence of Kurdistan. In the foothills of the mountains near the Bazian Strait, there are several different caves dating back to the stone ages. There are also sources of water and it is a green area due to the dense planting of trees. And the ancient inhabitants of the region built a high wall between the two sides of the strait to take refuge in it when the enemies attacked. In recent years, the wall has been restored by the concerned authorities in Kurdistan. There are also those who call (Bazian Strait) the White Strait, in relation to its white rocks. [1]

Two Minaret Mosque
Two minaret Mosque or in Kurdish language (Du Minara)
It is a mosque in the city of Saqqez, 1750 AD. The old Mosque of Du Minara is located in the city of Saqqez in Sanandaj Governorate, east of Kurdistan. The mosque with two minarets leads from the north to a three-meter-wide alley bordered by Naryn Castle, from the south to the open Hazkhana area, from the west to a four-meter-wide corridor, and from the east to a one-meter-wide alley corridor. The history of building the Du Minara Mosque dates back to the end of the Afsharid rule and the beginning of the Zand rule of eastern Kurdistan. And local narrations say that the Afshari king Nader Shah , while passing through the city of Saqqez on his way to Baghdad, ordered the construction of this mosque, in response to the request of the Kurdish sheikh (Sheikh Hassan Mulanabad), who wanted to build a mosque for the people of Saqqez, and it is still there. Some of the city\'s residents call this mosque the name Sheikh Hassan Mulanabad Mosque, And Sheikh Hassan Mulan Abad was one of the most famous mystics and mathematicians in Kurdistan during the days of Afshari rule. Nadir Shah Al-Afshari met him when he passed through the Saqqez region during his travel to Baghdad, and during that meeting Sheikh Hassan Molanabad asked Nadir Shah to build a mosque for the people of Saqqez, and Nadir Shah agreed to his request. Nadir Shah also presented Sheikh Hassan Mulan with two inlaid canes and a beautiful colored leather tablecloth. These gifts are still kept in the village Mulanabad, the birthplace of Sheikh Hassan Mulanabad, where his grave is also located in that village. There is also a handwritten volume of the Holy Qur’an in the shrine of Sheikh Hassan Mulanabad, dating back to the end of the Afshari period of eastern Kurdistan. Most of the homes in this area are located on a sloped roof. And in order for the mosque to be built on a flat surface, a platform of rubble stones with a height of about 4 to 4.5 meters was created before the mosque was built, then the mosque was built on this stone platform, In front of the mosque there is a gallery that is believed to have been used to perform prayers in the summer seasons. The engineering design of the Du Minara mosque is square in shape, and the materials used in its construction are: raw clay, mortar shells, rubble stones, bricks, and wood , The entrance to the mosque is located in the western part, as for the entrance gate, it is built of bricks with Chinese knot weaving and yellow tiles, and this indicates that the date of building the entrance gate of the mosque dates back to the beginning of the Kurdish Zand era (1750 AD - 1794 AD), And through the entrance door, it is possible to access the portico of the mosque directly, through a graded corridor consisting of 9 stairs, In the courtyard of the mosque there are two minarets located in the eastern part of that corridor, which can be accessed through a separate door. And the height of the roof of the courtyard is 2.8 meters, which is based, like the rest of the mosques in that area, on four round wooden columns. The roof of this mosque was thatched until the year 1985 AD, and in that year the straw cover was removed and its roof was completely asphalted. Most of the sections of the mosque date back to the end of the Afsharid period of rule and the beginning of the Zandi period and the characteristics of that era. According to these interpretations, we can confirm that the mosque is linked to the Afsharid and Zandi periods. It was rebuilt and minor repairs were carried out in the following ages.[1]

Al-Muzaffariya Minaret
The Muzaffariya minaret or muzaffariya lighthouse in the city of Erbil, 1154-1233
Muzaffariya Lighthouse or Jolly Lighthouse, is an ancient lighthouse that was established during the era of the Atabeg Muzaffar al-Din Kawkapuri, 1154 AD - 1233 AD who ruled Erbil in the days of the Atabeg (Erbil Mosul), The Mudhaffari lighthouse is located on the western side of the Kurdish city of Erbil, and this lighthouse is considered the second largest historical landmark in the city of Erbil after the Citadel of Erbil. The lighthouse is about 500 meters away from the Citadel. The fame of the Mudhaffari minaret became famous due to the beauty of its view and the engineering of its construction. It is believed that it was built in the era of Atabegiya of Erbil and Mosul, the days of the rule of the Sultan Muzaffar al-Din Koukbari of the city of Erbil. On the walls of the lighthouse, the date of its construction and the nationality of its engineer,
And the Sultan Muzaffar al-Din Kokbari, whose title means the blue wolf , was the son-in-law of the Kurdish Ayyubid sultan Sultan Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi, The height of the Mudhaffari minaret is about 37 meters, and its diameter is 21 feet.
It is built of red bricks and stucco, and is built on an octagonal base of equal lengths except for two sides. It consists of an octagonal geometric bottom, and a cylindrical upper part. The minaret is decorated from its external facades with motifs very similar to the motifs of Sinjar Minaret, Al-Hadba Minaret and Daqouq Minaret. The Al-Muzaffariyyah lighthouse has two gates, each door is about two and a half meters long, and each door leads to stairs leading to the top of the lighthouse. Inside the lighthouse there is a cylindrical building whose diameter becomes smaller as you ascend to the top. The staircase revolves around it, as one enters through the aforementioned two doors to ascend to the top of the lighthouse. The number of steps for each ladder is 132 from each side. There is no convergence between them except in the floor of the lighthouse and above. The lighthouse, so that two people can go up or down at the same time without seeing each other, and the lighthouse has a window in the middle of its height on the eastern side for air movement. According to some circulating narrations, Al-Muzaffariya Minaret was approximately 45 meters high, and that was before the upper part of it was hit by a lightning bolt in the spring season, when lightning, thunder, and rain showers abound in the city of Erbil and its suburbs, and the thunderbolt was spared from about 8 meters high, There is a folk tale narrated from generation to generation about Al-Muzaffariya Lighthouse and the purpose of building the two staircases in it, and the reasons for the similarity between it and other lighthouses in Kurdistan. Among them, it is narrated that the engineer who executed the lighthouse was a student of the engineer of Daqouq Lighthouse located in the south of the city of Kirkuk, but as a result of a dispute between him and his teacher during the construction of Daqouq Lighthouse, the student leaves his teacher, and builds the Muzaffariya Lighthouse in Erbil , which was later called the Çolî lighthouse, which means the lighthouse of the wilderness in the Kurdish language, because of the lighthouse’s distance from the Citadel of Erbil and the residential neighborhoods surrounding it, and the student realizes that his teacher will definitely visit him after hearing the news of the construction of this lighthouse, so he prepares for that visit From the beginning, he expects envy and grudge from his teacher if he sees this lofty building that was built in a better way than his teacher built for the Daquq minaret, and that his teacher will come later to see the minaret, so he thinks of building two staircases inside the cylinder of the minaret, and when his teacher visits the city of Erbil, the professor asks his student They climb the minaret together, so the teacher begins to climb from the first staircase without realizing that there is a second staircase, while the student climbs from the second staircase, and they meet at the top of the minaret, and then the student realizes that his teacher is in an abnormal psychological state, so the student gets scared and rushes down the stairs. The first, and the professor believes that the second staircase meets the first on the way down, so he chooses the second, and they meet again on the ground, and there are people following the event, then the professor in front of the people congratulates his student on this achievement, and travels to the city of Mosul to build a better lighthouse than his student. He builds a lighthouse, and concludes that its lighthouse is tilted and is expected to fall at any moment, but he failed in his endeavor, and that lighthouse was called the Al-Hadba Lighthouse. here are old pictures of the Mudhaffariyya minaret dating back to the mid-twentieth century AD, in which the minaret appears to be alone in an open courtyard. While the lighthouse is now in the center of the city of Erbil, as a result of the wide urban movement that Erbil witnessed after the year 1991 AD, and then the rapid reconstruction movement of the city after the year 2003 AD, And in the year 2009 AD, an Italian company, in cooperation with the Department of Antiquities of the Kurdistan Ministry of Culture, restored Al-Muzaffariya Minaret to protect it from falling, because its floor had recently become soft and fragile, and it is now considered one of the archaeological symbols and tourist attractions in the city of Erbil.[1]

Karim Khan Zand Castle, is a famous historical Kurdish castle, located in the city of Shiraz - the center of Fars Province, located in the south of the Islamic Republic of Iran,
It is a royal palace and the place of residence of Karim Khan Zand, the founder of the Kurdish Zand state, which took the city of Shiraz as its capital. The castle of Karim Khan Zand was built between the years 1766 and 1767 AD, by order of the founder of the Kurdish Zand state (Karim Khan Zand). To build the castle, Karim Khan Zand brought in the best architects, sculptors and technicians from all over the country. And because the castle was the residence of (Karim Khan Zand), the architecture of military construction and residential construction was mixed in its design. Where the external walls were constructed, as in the camps, with a height of 15 meters, and a thickness of 3 meters, and they are conical-shaped walls at the bottom and at the top there is a place for the military to settle. The eastern side of the castle is a relatively high wall, as the main entrance is located in the middle of it. And above the entrance gate there is a painting representing (Rustam\'s struggle with the white genie) made of painted ceramics. The internal parts of the castle consist of the king\'s private bathroom, the corridor, and the guard room, which is also built behind the wall. In front of the hall, there are two wooden columns in front of which is a four-sided water basin. The materials used in construction are mostly a mixture of molded clay and stones. Interior decorations and decorations, including frames and shelves, are all built of alabaster stone brought from the cities of Yazd and Tabriz, large mirrors from Russia, Anatolia and Europe, The drawings on the ceiling are painted with gold and lapis lazuli, vegetable and mineral colors. The building of the castle consists of buildings with three halls, and the entrance section is for service matters. After the decline of the Kurdish Zand state and the emergence of the Qajar state, the castle (Karim Khan Zand) was utilized as the government house and the place of stability for governors and rulers in Shiraz, and this situation continued until the beginning of the emergence of the Pahlavi state in the year 1925 AD. And during the era of the Pahlavi state, the castle was used between the years (1925 AD - 1941 AD) as a central prison in Shiraz, where the large halls were divided into small rooms for that purpose. The well-known revolutionary (Shamad Lawri) was imprisoned in this majestic castle and then escaped from it, who was revolting against the Pahlavi government. In the year 1971 AD, the castle was handed over to the Iranian National Heritage Department, and maintenance operations began and it was converted into a national museum in the Iranian city of Shiraz.[1]

Mosque (Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi) in the city of Urfa, 1185 AD
Mosque (Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi) in the city of Urfa, 1185 AD.
The Salah Al-Din Al-Ayyubi Mosque is located in the Kurdish city of Urfa.
It is considered one of the historical mosques in Kurdistan, and one of the most important Kurdish Islamic monuments. The Great Mosque (Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi) was established in the twelfth century AD, on the remains of the Church (St. John the Baptist), which was built in the year 457 AD, by Bishop (Nuna) during the days of the Byzantine rule. He supervised the construction of the mosque and supported it, the Kurdish Sultan Yusuf ibn Ayyub (Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi) himself. And due to the fact that the Sultan (Saladin Al-Ayyubi) used the first church as a mosque for a period, the mosque was named after him. The historic Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi mosque in the Kurdish city of Urfa is a model of Ayyubid Kurdish architecture, which is characterized by austerity and lack of extravagance in decoration, due to the wars taking place at the time with the Crusaders. The architecture of the (Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi) mosque in the city of Urfa is characterized by strength, mastery of planning and accuracy with apparent luxury, and reliance on carved stone of large dimensions as a basic material in facades, columns and crowns. And the main prayer hall is lit by windows, and on the edges of the windows there are half-columns remaining from the church and dragon inscriptions interwoven into each other. The mosque is characterized by the fact that it has neither a minaret nor a dome, and it contains a pulpit, a mihrab, and ancient arches and arches, thus forming an architectural masterpiece in which the styles of ecclesiastical and Ayyubid architecture are mixed, so that the mosque remains until the present time a landmark that reminds the people of the city of Urfa that the historical Kurdish leader The Sultan (Saladin Al-Ayyubi, 1137 AD - 1193 AD) passed through here. Historians suggest the secret of the interest of the Sultan (Saladin Al-Ayyubi) in the city of Urfa to his preoccupation with fighting the Crusaders, and his realization of the importance of the Levant, its cities and its frontiers, as it is adjacent to the Byzantines, so he sought to rebuild it and revive its economy and build mosques and public facilities in it, including this mosque named after him in Urfa, who personally supervised its restoration after it was an old and famous church, he bought it from its people and turned it into the mosque that we see now. And the city of Urfa was considered within the Levant at that period, and the Kurds were and still constitute a high percentage of the population of the Levant. According to the Old Testament, Urfa is the city of the birth and life of the Prophet Ibrahim and the Prophet Ayoub, and there are many landmarks that show the stay of the Prophet Ibrahim in it. The building of the mosque (Saladin Al-Ayyubi) was in ruins for many years, and it was used as a power station, It was restored in the year 1993 AD. And it reopened on May 28, 1993 AD, for worship as a mosque. Some of the city’s sheikhs and elderly residents insist on performing prayers in the (Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi) mosque, although it is closer to being a museum of architecture and a historical place for tourists and those interested in history. Their insistence, as they say, is due to their love for Sultan Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi, and to what this mosque represents in terms of cohesion between the components of the social fabric in the city of Urfa.

Although it is not known when the Citadel of Gaziantep was built, it is known that it was used for observation purposes during the Hittite period. The Citadel of Gaziantep represented the most important observation point for the Hittite army under the rule of the Emperor (Supiluliuma I), who, in the middle of the fourteenth century BC, included most parts of Anatolia, the northern parts of the Levant, and the western parts of Kurdistan under his control. The Hittites achieved great victories because of their strength and military strategy, which relied on war chariots in attack, and on fortified castles for defense. The Citadel of Gaziantep was one of the fortresses that contributed to the retreat of their enemies. After the fall of the Hittite state, which was called (Khattusha Kingdom) in the year 1178 BC, the Citadel of Gaziantep came under the control of the Assyrians. And after the fall of the Assyrian state in the year 612 BC, the fortress of Gaziantep was subjected to the control of the Medes.

Dalal Bridge
Dalal Bridge, in the city of Zakho.
In Kurdish language(Pira Dalal) is located on the eastern side of the city of Zakho in the Kurdistan Governorate of Dohuk. It is an old stone bridge spanning the Khabur River, at a height of about 15.5 meters. There are many sayings about the history of the construction of Dalal Bridge. Where Hammertin says that this bridge dates back to the period of Roman rule, And (Iskif) says that it dates back to the era of the Romans, and that the Roman commander (Seleucus) was the one who ordered its construction. And a number of Kurdish archaeologists say that one of the local Kurdish princes under the Roman rule built this bridge. (Dalal Bridge), which is about 114 meters long, 4.70 meters wide, and 15.5 meters above the river level, was built using large river stones, which are carved and striped stones. The bridge is formed of six axes in the form of a semi-circle, one of which is large in the middle, and five on its sides. As for its walls, it is built of large engraved stones, and due to the absence of writings and structures on it, so its history is not known yet. The naming of (Dalal Bridge) by this name is ancient for the people of the city of Zakho. Also, some of its people mention it under the name (The Great Bridge Pira Mezin) as well. And in the twentieth century AD, it was called (the Abbasid bridge Pira Ebaskî) by an official order from the governor (Qaimmaqam) of the city of Zakho. And on the date of May 15, 1909 AD, when the archaeologist (Konrad Brewes) visited this bridge, the bridge was named (Khabur Bridge), In the year 1833 AD, the king of the Kurdish kingdom of Soran (Mehemed Paşay Gewre) took control of the city of Zakho, and demolished the upper part of (Dalal Bridge) to cut off the road for the Ottoman forces from advancing towards the lands of the Kingdom of Soran. In the year 1918 AD, the British forces occupied the city of Zakho, and they placed quantities of explosive material (TNT) in the middle of the large arch of (Dalal Bridge), with the aim of detonating it when the Ottoman forces advanced, and in the year 1955 AD, this amount of explosive material was removed In the presence of (Hussein Tawfi), the deputy police officer of Zakho at the time, In the year 1969 AD, a strong flood destroyed the northern part of Dalal Bridge.[1]

The City of Hekmatan, 750 BC
The city of Hekmatana, 715 BC.
The ruins of the Kurdish Medieval city of Hekamatana (Tel Hekamatana) are located in the current Hamedan Governorate in eastern Kurdistan. Among the features of the ancient city of Hekmatana is the architecture and regular planning of this city, which is rare among the ancient works that were found. The works discovered at the site of this city indicate the presence of a regular and advanced water supply network in the spaces between the water supply channels. There were passages 3.5 meters wide, and the floor of these passages was completely paved with ordinary square bricks.
Research also showed that there are two series of building units at a distance of 35 meters between the corridors, each of which includes a central courtyard (hall), with similar rooms and warehouses around it, so that each building unit covers an area of ​​about 17.5 x 17.5 meters, and the aforementioned corridors are 3.5 meters wide. A foundation made of bricks spread over a large part of the hill and has a north-eastern direction to a south-western direction. The city of Hegmetane (in Median Kurdish) meaning (the gathering place), Hemetan (in Pahlavi-Sasanian Kurdish), Hemedan (in modern Kurdish), is one of the oldest Kurdish cities, which was the capital of the Median Kurds, The name of this Kurdish Median city was mentioned in the Greek sources in the form of Ecbatan, The Greek historian Herodotus, 484 BC - 425 BC, says that the city of Hekmatana, which was built by King Diako-Duk, the founder of the Median Kingdom (Mad Kingdom), has seven walls, each of which is painted in the color of one of the planets. According to the historian Herodotus, Hekematana was chosen as the capital of the Medes by King Duke Dahiuk at the end of the eighth century BC, And describes Herodotus the royal complex, including the palace, treasury, and military housing built on a hill, and says that this complex was built by seven concentric walls, each inner wall was higher than the outer wall and was controlled by the nobles, It has been shown in the archaeological excavations conducted in recent years in (Tell Hekmatana) that the site of the palace and the aforementioned buildings was located in the current (Tell Hekmatana), The scientific excavations at Tell Hekmatana date back to the year 1913 AD, when a French delegation led by Charles Fossey from the Louvre Museum in Paris conducted excavations at (Tell Hekmatana), but the results of these explorations were never published. During 10 seasons of excavations conducted from 1983 AD to 1999 AD, 14,000 square meters of the remains of the Kurdish city of Hekmatana, considered one of the centers of the oldest periods of human civilization, were excavated.
Parts of the huge city wall were also discovered, with a diameter of 9 meters and a height of 8 meters, with two huge and rare towers inside. And the discovery of that wall led to the identification of a large city in the heart of (Tell Hekmatana), which is the ancient city of Hekmatana, the capital of the Median Kurds (Mad Kingdom 700 BC - 550 BC), The continuation of the excavations at Tell Hekmatana revealed the presence of valuable and unique works that mostly belong to the Persian Achaemenid and Sasanian Kurdish periods. Due to the location of the city of Hekmatana and its strategic resources, it is likely that this area was inhabited before the first millennium BC, despite the lack of historical and archaeological evidence to prove this. Despite two centuries of conflict between the Medes and the Assyrians in the center of Zagros, the Assyrians did not provide any clear description of the Median Kurdish city of Hekmatana, and this indicates that the Assyrians could never advance towards the Median Kurdish lands located east of the Elwend River, while They took control of the Median Kurdish lands and cities located west of the Alwand river, such as the city of Arbil and the city of Kirkuk. The city of Hamedan (ancient Hekmatana) is the capital of the Medes, along with Athens, the capital of the Greeks, Rome, the capital of Italy, and Shush (Shushan-Susa), the capital of the Elamite Kurds, one of the few ancient cities in the world that are still alive and important.[1]

Citadel and city of Nabi Hori
Citadel and city of Nabi Hori
in Afrin region The ruins of the castle and the city of (Nabi Houri) are located 10 km north of the town of (Sharan) of the Afrin region - western Kurdistan.It is 45 km north-east of Afrin city. The ruins of the castle and the city of Nabi Houri consist of the ruins of an ancient city, on the northern and eastern slopes of a mountain elevation on which the castle of Nabi Houri was erected.On the western side of the site, on another mountain top, there are traces of a fort belonging to the castle, and it is said that there was a tunnel connecting them. In the south of the site there are hills of low height covered with olive trees. While in the north of the site dotted with beautiful Kurdish villages, And nothing remains of the old castle except for parts of its wall and some of the foundations and rooms of the towers in the corners of the castle wall, which are of the arched model. The castle has recently been restored. There are several designations for the location of the castle and city of Nabi Hori, as it is known locally as (Nabi Hori), while the Greek name for the ancient city is (Syros), and it was called (Agia Paulus), meaning the city of Saints Cosma and Damianos, and a church was built around their tombs. The Christian city of (Syros) was entered by (Simon the Zealot), who built a church in it and died and was buried in it. There is a religious narration about the name of the castle of Nabi Hori that says: It goes back to the name (Uria bin Hanan), one of the leaders of the Prophet David, who was killed in a battle that took place in the first millennium BC and was buried in it, and the events of the story of Prophet David with Uriah’s wife are known in religious literature to It ended at the hands of the Babylonians in the context of the (Medi-Babylonian) alliance and the fall of Nineveh. Also, Hori (Huri) is the name of an ancient Kurdish dynasty that appeared between the Zagros Mountains and the Taurus Mountains (northwest Kurdistan) between the years (2500 BC - 1000 BC) and established the (Kingdom of Mitan) in the middle of the second millennium BC, which ruled the entire northern section of the ancient Near East, There are several other sites in the Afrin region that bear the name (Hori), such as: the caves and ruins of Al-Huriyin near the village of Joqih, and Jabal Hawar, which is close to the name of Hori. (Hori Castle) was an important center for the worship of the gods Athena (the protector of Greece), whose symbol was the olive tree, and the gods Zeus (the god of thunderbolt), It is believed that the (Temple of Zeus) was on top of the mountain next to the mountain on which (Hori Castle) is located. Some sources believe that in the period before the period of Greek rule in the region there was a city in the same place as the city of (Nabi Huri), and most of the belief that it existed since the period of the Hurricane dynasty that established (Kingdom of Mitan), Accordingly, its current name has deep roots in the Hurrian Kurdish history. As for the modern city (Syros), the ruins of which still remain, it was built by the Greek leader (Slucus Nicator), the founder of the Greek Seleucid state in the East (312 BC - 64 BC). The city and castle of Hori went through many periods, including the Roman period, the Byzantine period, and the Islamic period. The oldest bridges near the castle and city of (Nabi Hori) are two bridges from the Roman era, dating back to the first or second century AD. It seems that the two bridges were restored more than once in different eras, especially in the Byzantine era. The two bridges are still serving the traffic in that area, but they are threatened with collapse due to the heavy traffic that runs over them. The first bridge is built on the Saboun River, east of the castle (Nabi Houri), 1.5 km away. It is 120 meters long. It has six openings, two of which are symmetrical, and a small seventh opening on the western side of the bridge. It was not mentioned by the modern written sources that described the bridge, perhaps because The opening is small and lonely at the western end of the bridge.
The second bridge is built on the Afrin River, east of the first bridge, at a distance of 1 kilometer, 92 meters long, and has three large openings.[1]

Numerous disputes arose between the princes of the Emirate of Baban, which encouraged the Ottoman, Safavid, Zand and Qajar governments to interfere in the affairs of this emirate, and these interventions caused the change of the Emirs of Baban several times. In the second half of the eighteenth century AD, Prince (Mahmoud Pasha) abdicated the rule of the Emirate of Baban and left the emirate, so the governor of Baghdad (Suleiman Pasha) installed (Ibrahim Pasha), the nephew of Prince (Mahmoud Pasha), as ruler of the Emirate of Baban.
