In 1978, the villages of Hawraman were destroyed by the former Iraqi regime. The villages were abandoned, and the original culture and character of Hawraman were wiped out, leaving no houses or walls standing. Since the 1991 revolution and the subsequent reconstruction of the villages of Kurdistan and Hawraman, I have worked as a stone master in Hawraman. I have built most of the houses and walls in Hawraman and the surrounding villages. My name is Jihangir Mustafa, and I am a 58-year-old resident of Balkham Village. I work as a stone wall craftsman to earn a living. I have a passion for construction work, as it helps preserve the beautiful scenery of Hawraman and maintain the region's cultural heritage. I love my profession and want the new generation to learn about the ancient culture of Hawraman. I inherited this craft from my parents, and I have made efforts to teach others so that the original culture of Hawraman continues after I am gone.
