We, as a group of anthopologists, decided that we would immerse ourselves in the Kurdish culture for the past 3 months. Our group found many interesting anthropological facts about the Kurdish culture and people. Our website is a wealth of information for those looking to learn a little about the Kurds.

The Kurds are considered to be the people without a country and they are the only nationality that does not have a country of its own.  

The words to the Kurdish National Anthem, in both the national language and in English. 

Ey Reqib

Ey raqîb her mawe qewmî Kurd ziman,
Nay sikên danery topî zeman
Kes nelê Kurd mirduwe
Kurd zîn duwe,
Zîn duwe qet nanewê alakeman

Ême roley rengî sûr û soris în,
Seyrîke xuênawiya raburdûman
Kes nelê Kurd mirduwe
Kurd zîn duwe,
Zîn duwe qet nanewê alakeman 

Ême roley Midya û Keyhusrew în,
Dînîman û ayînman her Kurdistan
Dînîman û ayînman Kurd u Kurdistan
Kes nelê Kurd mirduwe
Kurd zîn duwe,
Zîn duwe qet nanewê alakeman

Lawî Kurd hestaye ser pê wek dilêr,
Ta be xuên nexsîn deka tacî jiyan
Kes nelê Kurd mirduwe
Kurd zîn duwe,
Zîn duwe qet nanewê alakeman 

Lawî Kurdî hazir û amadeye,
Giyan fîdan e, giyan fîda her giyan fîda,
Giyan fîdan e, giyan fîda her giyan fîda

Hey Enemy! (English)

Hey enemy, the Kurdish nation is alive with its language
Can not be defeated by the weapons of any time
Let no one say Kurds are dead
Kurds are living
Kurds are living, their flag will never fall 

We, the youth are the red colour of the revolution
Watch our blood that we shed on this way
Let no one say Kurds are dead
Kurds are living
Kurds are living, their flag will never fall 

We are the children of Medya and Keyhusrew
Both our faith and religion are our homeland
Both our faith and religion are Kurd and Kurdistan
Let no one say Kurds are dead
Kurds are living
Kurds are living, their flag will never fall 

The Kurdish youth have risen like lions
To adorn the crown of life with blood
Let no one say Kurds are dead
Kurds are living
Kurds are living, their flag will never fall

The Kurdish youth are ever present and
Forever will be ready to sacrifice their lives
Sacrifice each life they have, each life they have
