Adıyaman Province
Adıyaman Province ( tr, , ku, ) is a province in the Southeastern Anatolia Region of Turkey. The capital is Adıyaman. The province is considered part of Turkish Kurdistan and has a Kurdish majority. Adıyaman Province was part of the province of Malatya until 1954, when it was made into a province as a reward for voting for the winning Democratic Party in the 1954 general election. The province consists of the districts Adıyaman (center district), Besni, Çelikhan, Gerger, Gölbaşı, Kâhta, Samsat, Sincik and Tut. History Early Armenian rule Armenian existence in Adıyaman dates back to the 4th century, where they were known as 'fire worshippers'.

Reşwan (tribe)
Reşwan, (; ) also known as Reşiyan, is a Kurdish tribe, native to the western frontier of Kurdistan, mostly populating Adıyaman, Gaziantep, Kahramanmaraş and Malatya provinces in Turkey and also present in Konya and Ankara provinces, Raqqa in Syria, and Qazvin Province in Iran. Members of the tribe mostly adhere to the Hanafi school of Islam but some are Alevi. Etymology Nuh Ateş, a scholar and editor of Bîrnebûn, suggests that the name Reşwan is a compound of the Kurdish words () and the plural form ''-ân''. Stefan Winter argues Reşwan can be understood as "The Blacks" in Kurdish. According to the tax records from the 16th century in the Ottoman Sancak in Urfa, the tribe was referred to as a remnant of the ''Black Nation'' ( tr, Kara Ulus) tribal confederation that was mainly composed of Kurdish tribes affiliated with the Qara Qoyunlu ( black sheep) confederation. Nonetheless, the name of the tribe was written in over fifty different ways in Ottoman documents du ...
