Don't forget the Sindi tribe, it's larger of most of the tribes yall mentioned before.

The Aryan Period

As early as 2000 BC, the vanguards of the Indo-European speaking tribal immigrants, such as the Hittites and the Mittanis (Sindis), had arrived in southwestern Asia. While the Hittites only marginally affected the mountain communities in Kurdistan, the Mittanis settled inside Kurdistan around modern Diyarbakir, and influenced the natives in several fields worthy of note, in particular the introduction of knotted rug weaving. Even rug designs introduced by the Mittanis and recognized by the replication in the Assyrian floor carvings, remain the hallmark of the Kurdish rugs and kelims. The modern mina khâni and chwar such styles are basically the same today as those the Assyrians copied and depicted nearly 3000 years ago.

The name ‘Mittani’ survives today in the Kurdish clans of Mattini and Millani/Milli who inhabit the exact same geographical areas of Kurdistan as the ancient Mittani. The name "Mittan," however, is a Hurrian name rather than Aryan. At the onset of Aryan immigration into Kurdistan, only the aristocracy of the high-ranking warrior groups were Aryans, while the bulk of the people were still Hurrian in all manners. The Mittani aristocratic house almost certainly was from the immigrant Sindis, who survive today in the populous Kurdish clan of Sindi—again—in the same area where the Mittani kingdom once existed. These ancient Sindi seem to have been an Indic, and not Iranic group of people, and in fact a branch of the better known Sindis of India-Pakistan, that has imparted its name to the River Indus and in fact, India itself. (footnote While the bulk of the Sindis moved on to India, some wondered into Kurdistan to give rise to the Mittani royal house and the modern Sindi Kurds.

Yea, read the informative link KCF posted. It has Ahmedî listed...

Konfedere Olmayan Aşiretler
(Bunların çoğu, Büyük Erdalan Konfederasyonu parçalanmadan önce aynı çatı altındaydı. Aksi belirtilmemişse, tümü de Güney Kurmaneisi konuşurlar ve Sünnidirler)

Ahmedî (Ehmedî olarak da bilinirler ve Bana yakınlarında yaşarlar)

Can someone tell me about the tribes in parts of Kurdistan? I know only a little, and would like to know more. It seems there are many of the same names, and when you say some names people give you more attention.

Thank You,

What is that suppoused to be "Tayari" (chaldan), who do you mean with this? You seem to point probably to an Assyrian Tribe of the Tiaries aint you? Cause if thats the cause, you are totatly wrong this is not a kurdish Tribe. If you mean someoneelse then I am sorry for attacking you, but if you refer to the semi indepndent tribe of the Hakkari area (present till the WW 1), then you are making up history.
