“جنوبي ماردين بينهما فرسخان كانت في القرن الثالث عشر بلدة عظيمة اما اليوم فهي قرية
تسمى قوج حصار يجاورها قرية تل ارمن.” 2
“situated south of Mardin, Dunaysar was a large town in the thirteenth century. Today
it is a small village, called Koç Hisar, near Tell al-Arman.” 3
Notes
Dolabani's description asserts an erroneous relation to Kızıltepe.
