The origins of this book lie substantially in my Ph.D. thesis completed in the Institute of Art and Archaeology at the University of Paris I Pantheon-Sorbonne in October 2006. Th e composition of this book has been realised with the help and advice of many people, but nobody is responsible for its errors and weakness except myself. My thanks are particularly due to Professor Alastair Northedge, who supervised the original thesis. I am

grateful to Professor Jeremy Johns who supported this work with his precious criticisms and to Dr. Mamo Farhan Othman who supplied me with a great deal of information on Yezidi history and culture. I would also like to thank Prof. Dr. Asker Kartarı, Associate Professor Christine Allison and Dr. Pierre Simon for their contribution.

Acknowledgements are also due to the Barakat Trust, the National Higher Education and Research Ministry of France, and the Shivan Perwer International Cultural Foundation for their generous fi nancial support. I would like to express my gratitude to the Kurdish Institute of Paris for its support during my doctoral studies in Paris, to the Cultural Centre of Lalish in Dohuk, Ba’shiqe and Sinjar for their assistance in my fi eldwork, and to the Khalili Research Centre of Oxford University and the Department of Communication Sciences of Hacettepe University for providing me

with facilities necessary for the redaction of this book.

Th e translation and transcription of the inscriptions were carried out by Dr. Luai Jaff , Muhammad Hussein, and Zeinab Zaza. Th e latter also helped me with the translation of the Arabic sources. Th e translation of the Ottoman archives was made in collaboration with Yavuz Aykan. Natalia Tari, Paul Grey and Arezou Azad helped me with corrections in the English texts. Arzu Karahan helped me to give the fi nal shape to the line drawings. I thank them greatly.
