Ahlah, alternatively recorded as Halah, Achlah, or Narli, is situated 13 kilometers northeast of Midyat within the Tur Abdin region. Only three or four Syriac-Aramean families lived in the village among a large Kurdish majority.
Local Kurdish neighbors offered protection to these specific families, allowing this small Syriac-Aramean community to survive the violence of the period intact.
