داستان نام

Amed — the Kurdish name of the city now officially called Diyarbakır. From the ancient Amid, attested in Roman and Aramaic sources; Kurmancî has kept the older form. As a name, Amed puts a city into a word — the city whose black walls still stand.

ریشه‌شناسی

ریشه: Amed · Toponym

Amed is the Kurdish name for the city now officially called Diyarbakır in Turkey. The pre-modern name Amid / Āmida is attested in Roman, Byzantine and Aramaic sources for the same site, and the Kurmancî form preserves that older name. Using Amed is a deliberate cultural-political choice.
