This study explores the role of Sinjar Mountain in the return migration decisions of internally displaced Êzîdîs, who sought refuge in Iraq's camps after a devastating massacre in August 2014. Employing a semiotic approach, data was gathered via semi-structured interviews with NGO representatives and the analysis of visual videos. The findings reveal profound symbolic meanings associated with the mountain and their diverse interpretations within the Êzîdî community. Despite the mountain's ordinary physical appearance, this research reveals its deeper significance and explores the concept of topophilia or the love of a specific place, in the context of return migration. The pivotal role of the sacred Sinjar Mountain in motivating Êzîdîs to return to their homeland is demonstrated. Contributing new insights to the field, this work enhances our understanding of the complex relationship between symbolic landscapes and the decisions made by displaced populations.
