Hadhabani or Hadhbāni, Hadhbānī, Hadhbâniyya[1] (also: Hadhbani) (Kurdish: ھەزەبانی, هۆزبان, Hecbanî) was a large medieval and most powerful Sunni Muslim Kurdish tribe divided into several groups, centered at Arbil, Oshnavieh and Urmia. Their dominion included the regions of Maragha and Urmia to the east, Arbil, Sinjar, and parts of Jazira to the south and west, and Barkari, Hakkari and Salmas to the north,[1][2][3] as Erbil being one of their capital,[4] ruling between the year 906 to 1131.[5]

Etymology[edit]

According to vladimir Minorsky, The name of the Tribe is derived from geographical term for the region of Irbil, which is preserved in the name of the Nestorian diocese, Adiabene (HaSayyap).[6] the name is most likely a combination of hoz ("tribe") and bān ("leader"or" chief"), in Kurdish. which means tribal leader.[7]

According to Ibn Hawqal the region of Jazira was the Summer pasture of Hadhabani Kurds,[8] The presence of Hadhabani in the 10th century is attested from Dvîn in Armenia, passing through the banks of the Caspian to Al-Jazirah.[9]
