Andaç (Kurdish: Elemûna;[2] Syriac: Halmūn)[3][nb 1] is a village in the Uludere District of Şırnak Province in Turkey.
[2][1] The hamlets of Arslanlı (Şivrezan) and Yarma (Gelemus, Geramûsa) are attached to Andaç.
[5] Halmūn (today called Andaç) was historically inhabited by Assyrian people and located in the Lower Tyari district in the Hakkari region.
[7] According to the English missionary George Percy Badger, the village was inhabited by 50 Assyrian families in 1850, all of whom belonged to the Church of the East and were served by two priests.
[6] By 1877, the village's population had grown to 60 families with one priest when visited by Edward Lewes Cutts.
