==History==
(詳細はPeutinger's map of the inhabited world known to the Roman geographers depicts Singara as located west of the ''ラテン語:Trogoditi. Persi.'' (''(ラテン語:Troglodytae Persiae)'', "Persian troglodytes") who inhabited the territory around Mount Sinjar. By the medieval Arabs, Sinjar was reckoned as part of the province of Diyār Rabīʿa, the "abode of the Rabīʿa" tribe. The nearby Plain of Sanjár (now the Nineveh Plains) was the site of the determination of the degree by al-Khwārizmī and other astronomers during the reign of the caliph al-Mamun.〔.〕 The city boasted a famous Assyrian church in the 8th century.
In 2007, several explosions set off by al-Qaeda in Iraq killed hundreds of Yazidis in Sinjar.
