In 1915, Çüngüş was the site of a massacre during the Armenian genocide, in which around 10,000 Armenians living in the area were taken to the Dudan crevasse and murdered by being thrown into the chasm. The massacre was remembered and recorded by the local Kurdish population,[6][7] and a memorial to victims of the killings was recorded in the film 100 Years Later (2016).[8]
