Hadhur

The Hadhur were a Kurdish Sunni tribe of the Shahrizor plain, the fertile valley around present-day Sulaymaniyah whose medieval inhabitants the geographer Yaqut al-Hamawi described as Kurds governing their own country. In 1337 their chief, Taj al-Din Hadhur, held the tribe's seat at Sulaymaniyah as a vassal of the Jalayirid sultanate in Baghdad.
