History

Gelinkaya is a former Assyrian village. It became the administrative center for the Mhallami in the 1850s when a beg from nearby Dêrizbin settled in the village, after a conflict with his relatives. After the 1920s, Kurds from nearby villages such as Deywan and Helex but also from the Sinjar region arrived to the village.[6]
