Several hundred people live around the ruins of ancient Tuneinir.
They are a hospitable and friendly people that may give some clues to the faces
of the ancient city's inhabitants. I count them all as my friends, brothers, and
sisters. Are these the faces similar to those of the Medieval or Ancient citizens
of Tuneinir? Maybe. Some of these families have recently migrated to the Khabur River Valley
from the Syrian coast or the mountains in Iraq/Iran. The Hamid family members trace their roots for at least 4 generations
to villages in the Khabur Valley.
