Pınarbaşı (Kurdish: Aynserê,[2] Syriac: Ayn-Sare)[nb 1] is a village in the İdil District of Şırnak Province in Turkey.[4] The village is populated by Kurds of the Hesinan tribe and had a population of 2,916 in 2021.[1] It is the largest village in the district.[1]

History

Ayn-Sare (today called Pınarbaşı) was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Assyrians.[5] In 1914, the village was inhabited by many Kurdish families and 150 Assyrians in 15 families, according to the Assyro-Chaldean delegation to the Paris Peace Conference.[6] Amidst the Sayfo, a number of Assyrians fled to Azakh after having been warned by a Kurdish woman that their Kurdish neighbours were conspiring to massacre them, whilst those who did not believe her and remained at Ayn-Sare were killed.[7]
