History
Mazrī (today called Çilesiz) was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Christians.[4] In the Syriac Orthodox patriarchal register of dues of 1870, it was recorded that the village had six households, who paid sixteen dues, and it did not have a church or a priest.[4] It is tentatively identified with the village of Mrzé, which was populated by 300 Syriacs in 1914, according to the list presented to the Paris Peace Conference by the Assyro-Chaldean delegation.[7]
