Sheylanli tribe ((アゼルバイジャン語:Şeylanlı tayfası); (クルド語:Eşîra Şeylanlî); (ロシア語:Шейланлы, Шейлани, or Шейланы)) is a Kurdish tribe who lived in the Sheylanli village, Lachin , until it was occupied by Armenian troops〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher= Institute for War & Peace Reporting )〕 . Since then as the victim of the war, an internally displaced persons, Sheylanlis were fled to the Aghjabadi Rayon, Azerbaijan. They speak Kurmanji dialect of the Kurdish Language . This tribe is considered to be one of the 24 Kurdish tribes 〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= On Kurdish tribes in Caucasus )〕 those were moved from Iran to Karabakh and Zangezur by Shah Abbas I of Iran in the 16th century to fortify the borders of the Safavid Empire . Tatiana F. Aristova gives some Sheylanli Kurdish family names such as ''Asadlar, Ismaillar, Nabilar, and Khudular'' in the book ''Kurdy Zakavkazia''.〔 The author mentions Sheylanli, Zerty, and Minkend among the poorest Kurdish communities of Azerbaijan in Lachin. ==Tribal Kurdish population in Lachin region== In the 1920s, the Kurdish community in Azerbaijan was considerably diminished, when many of them moved to Armenia where Kurdish villages were created.〔Encyclopedia of World Cultures, David Levinson, G.K. Hall & Co. (1991), p.225〕 About the same time Azerbaijan's Kurds had their own region called Red Kurdistan in the Lachin region, which was to the West of Karabakh. In fact, Lachin with the principal towns Kalbajar, Kubatli and Zangelan and the administrative sub-divisions of Karakushlak, Koturli, Murad-Khanli and Kurd-Haji were mostly inhabited by Kurds.〔The Kurds: A Contemporary Overview, Philip G. Kreyenbroek, Stefan Sperl, Routledge, (1992), ISBN 0-415-07265-4, p.201〕 In 1930 it was abolished and most remaining Kurds were progressivally recategorized as ''Azerbaijani''.〔Black Garden: Armenia and Azerbaijan Through Peace and War, Thomas De Waal, NYU Press, ISBN 0-8147-1945-7, p.133〕 Official Azerbaijani records claim only 12,000 Kurds, while Kurdish leaders estimate as much as 200,000. The problem is that the historical record of the Kurds in Azerbaijan is filled with lacunae.〔An Ethnohistorical Dictionary of the Russian and Soviet Empires, James Stuart Olson, Lee Brigance Pappas, Nicholas Charles Pappas, Greenwood Publishing Group, (1994), ISBN 0-313-27497-5, p.409〕 For instance, in 1979 there was according to the census no Kurds recorded.〔The Kurds: A Contemporary Overview, Philip G. Kreyenbroek, Stefan Sperl, Routledge, ISBN 0-415-07265-4, (1992), p.204〕 Not only did Turkey and Azerbaijan pursue an identical policy against the Kurds, they even employed identical techniques like forced assimilation, manipulation of population figures, settlement of non-Kurds in areas predominantly Kurdish, suppression of publications and abolition of Kurdish as a medium of instruction in schools.〔 Kurdish historical figures such as Sharaf Khan of Bitlis and Ahmad Khani and the Shaddadid dynasty as a whole were described as Azeris.〔 Kurds who retained 'Kurdish' as their nationality on their internal passports as opposed to 'Azeri' were unable to find employment.〔 In the past, in what is currently West of Azerbaijan (which includes Lachin), Kurds lived with an uneasy rivalry with the Azeri Turks.〔Iran Under the Ayatollahs, Dilip Hiro, Routledge, (1987), ISBN 0-7102-1123-6, p.111〕 In modern time they harbor some animosity toward them who they associate with the Turks,〔Political Culture and Civil Society in Russia and the New States of Eurasia, Vladimir Tismaneanu, M.E. Sharpe, (1995), ISBN 1-56324-365-2, p.355〕 which is not made easier because of Azerbaijan's prevailing policy of forceful assimilation.〔Linguistic Minorities in Central and Eastern Europe, Christina Bratt Paulston, Donald Peckham, Multilingual Matters, (1998), ISBN 1-85359-416-4, p.106〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sheylanli (Kurdish tribe)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
