historical site

The city was called Arrapha (Arafa) during the Assyrian period, and Karka during the Hellenistic period. It was also known as Bayt-i Kermay and al-Kerh in Syriac and Christian sources. From the Timurid period onward, its name began to appear as Kirkuk. Kirkuk was the sanjak center during the Ottoman period. Built by the Assyrians in the 9th century BC to protect against the Medes, the castle underwent additions, repairs, and renovations in later periods.
