History

Kurdish historian Sharafkhan Bidlisi writes that the Emirs of Bingöl came from the Barmakids family and that they have ruled Bingöl since the caliphate of the Abbasid caliph Harun al-Rashid.[5] In the 12th century, after the collapse of the Ayyubid Empire, the Emirate of Bingöl was established, then known under the name of Çapakçur.[6] The Bingöl principality, was a vassal to the Mongols, Aq Qoyunlu and Kara Koyunlu respectively, but it preserved its existence in this turbulent period.[7] After defeating the Azerbaijani dominated Tabriz; it organized expeditions to Eastern and Southeastern Anatolia on 1508. The expeditions were directed towards Mosul, Mardin and Diyarbekir. Later the Safavids succeeded in capturing Capakçur, although they also aimed to take over the administrative center of Hançuk. This was prevented by troops of the Bingöl Emir Abdal Bey.[8] The Emir died shortly after the war and his successor was not able to protect Hançuk, and after the Battle of Caldiran in 1514, the Emirs of Bingöl were subject to the Ottoman Empire[9][10] After Abdal Bey's death,the territory of the emirate was divided into Bingol-based as Bingol, young Siverek, the emirate of Bingol, which passed under the direction of the Emirate of Palu in the beginning of the 17th century. As a result of the adoption of the Ottoman centralization policy, the emirate ended in 1864.[11]
