About this Sinjār map poster
Sinjār lies in Nineveh Governorate in north-western Iraq, near the Syrian border. The town sits on the southern slopes of Mount Sinjar, a long, narrow ridge that rises abruptly from the surrounding plain and runs for roughly a hundred kilometres from east to west. The mountain is the dominant feature of any map of the area.
The streets of the town climb from the plain toward the base of the ridge, with the terrain influencing their pattern. The region is the historic heartland of the Yazidi community, and in 2014 it was the site of mass atrocities by the Islamic State group, which forced much of its population to flee to the mountain.
A Sinjār map poster shows the town in relation to its mountain: the steep ridge to the north, the flat open plain to the south, and the streets in between. For many people it is a place of deep significance, and the map offers a way to remember it with dignity.

Town on the slopes
Sinjār's streets rise from the plain toward the foot of the mountain, with the terrain shaping how the town spreads across the frame.
Open plain
Flat land extends to the south, providing a broad, calm contrast to the ridge and the denser pattern of the town.

Why Sinjār
A map that means something
For Yazidi families and others with ties to Sinjār, whether they remain in the region or live in the diaspora, a map of the town is a way to keep home present and to remember it. Its mountain-and-plain composition is quietly powerful.
