Avroman

Tiered steep-slope planning and architecture, gardening on dry-stone terraces, livestock breeding, and seasonal vertical migration are among the distinctive features of the local culture and life of the Hawrami Kurdish people who dwell in lowlands and highlands during different seasons of each year.

“Avroman Takht” village is located in the center of Oraman district in the southwest of Kurdistan province and "Pir Shaliar" ceremony is held there every year.

The earliest archaeological evidence shows that the region was inhabited by humans since Middle Paleolithic Period (more than 40,000 years ago).

[11] Evidence for Late Paleolithic occupation discovered in a cave site called Kenacheh in the Perdi Mala valley.

At the start of the Iran-Iraq war, most of Avroman came under the control of Sipay Rizgari, an anti-government militant group backed by Iraq.

[23] Traditional clothing for women includes either a vest or long-sleeved jacket or long overcoat worn over a gown.

Traditionally women wore Hewrami hats ornamented with valued coloured stones, beads and gold pieces.

Hawrami men generally wear a shirt; a vest with an open neck; and baggy trousers fitted at the ankles.

Siyaw Chemane is a style of singing practiced by the Hewrams in Avroman people and means hymn song in Hewrami.

Hawraman is home to divers fauna, including the Persian leopard (Panthera pardus tulliana), brown bear (Ursus arctos), mouflon (Ovis orientalis orientalis), wolf (Canis lupus), and Wild goat (Capra aegrarus) that can be found throughout the region.

Buzin and Markhil Protected Area (Kurdish: بوزین و مارخێڵ) is located at the southwest of Hawraman in Paveh and Javanrud counties of Kermanshah province.

[25] The 12 villages included in the property illustrate the Hawrami people's evolving responses to the scarcity of productive land in their mountainous environment through the millennia.
