Abstract
The Kurds are a nation residing in the region of Kurdistan, which extends to five distinct countries, namely Iran, Turkey, Syria, Iraq, and Armenia. The Kurds, due to their marginalisation inside their own countries and their settlement in strategically significant cross-border areas, have consistently faced challenges in preserving their national identity, as well as their cultural heritage. However, the Kurds have successfully maintained and safeguarded their cultural heritage and its various components throughout several centuries. They have preserved Jorabin as a ‘traditional sport’ within Kurdish communities. The aim of this study is to examine the historical development of Jorabin, investigating its interrelations with various cultural aspects and its socio-cultural significance for the Kurdish community.
