Mangur is one of the largest Kurdish tribe of northwestern Iran and has a minor presence in northern Iraq. Historically semi-nomadic and war-like, they are native to a basin on the little Zab river called “Mangurayeti”[1][2][3] in Mukriyan[4][5] and also inhabit the districts and cities of Sardasht, Piranshahr, Mahabad, and Pshdar District, the latter of which is in Iraq and not considered to be a part of the geo-cultural region of Mukriyan.[6]
Mangur was one of the Kurdish tribes in the Bolbas Federation.[7] The others were Mâmash, Piran , Zerzâ, Herki and Shekâk.[8]
