History

Sungurlu has been settled by Hittites, Assyrians, Phrygians, Cimmerians, Alexander the Great, Galatians, Ancient Romans, and Pontic Greeks. Following the defeat of Byzantium by the Turks at the battle of Malazgirt in 1071, the area was settled by Danishmend lords.

Sungurlu formerly was a village in Yozgat District of Sivas Province of Ottoman Empire. In 1872–73, there were 310 Armenian households, 250 Turkish households and 30 Greek households in the village. At the beginning of the 20th century, there were 1275 Armenians living in the village. Armenians were engaged in crafts, art and agriculture, especially blacksmithing and tailoring. There was Sb. Astvadzadzin Church in the village, while at the end of 19th century, the Armenian Haygazian collage had 200 students. The Armenians of the village were massacred or dislocated during the Armenian genocide.[4]
