Weren't the Kurds further south back then? Because as far as I know some Kurdish migrates and mixing make Eastern Anatolia has some genetically distance from the Western Anatolia. (also for sure some turkmens migrate to west anatolia)

there is a myth that many turks say that kurds were brought by selim a few hundred years ago . but it is not true . we are native . not as widely spread as we are today in the regions but we have been in east turkey since a billion years lol

there is a map if i am not wrong from almost thousand years ago even showing this . will try to find it

If we think logically, such a map cannot be made at that time.

yes of course . only maps AGAINST what i say can be made . even better if it is kurd haters doing it ?

what else do i have to do to show we are native . even if i made a time travelling machine and brought you there and showed you kurds there you would say "your machine is biased"

it's from 1070, i know kurds lives with turks in seljuk empire i don't think except red parts there are kurds in other areas in 1070 so kurds lives in slightly more southern and eastern than current IMO. i don't know there are any kurdish people in byzantine empire.

cool story bro

i showed 2 ancient maps with Kurds on it .....

i cant do more
I don't remember any information in any source about Kurds after Seljuks entering Anatolia, but there is information about Kurds before the Seljuk empire entered Anatolia. (that there are Kurds in the Seljuk lands) It just makes more sense to me, but as I said, I don't have much knowledge and I haven't done any research.

CORDUENE (GORDION) - Where does the name Kurd come from?

The word kurti is from sumerian and means: "kur" means mountain/hill and "ti" means from. So it means the people from the mountains/hills. This word kurti is the oldest known word which describes the kurds from 3000 BC.

In 1923, English Orientalist Sir Godfrey Rolles Driver published a scientific research article "The Name Kurd and Its Philological Connexions". Driver, who was also an Assyriologist had tried to find who was the Qurti who had lived around the lake Van and with whom Assyrian warrior Tiglath-Pileser "I had fought" in ~1050 BC.

Driver also tried to find the connection between Qurti and "the land of Karda" [Kardaka] text which was written on a Sumerian clay-tablet, of the third millennium B.C. Sumerians called the area around Lake Van a land of Karda. Driver examined the philological variations of Karda in different languages, such as Cordueni, Gordyeni, Kordyoui, Karduchi, Kardueni, Qardu, Kardaye, Qardawaye. He realized that all these names were actually the conversions of "Karda" in different languages. Also, he managed to connect all these names to the same area, Lake Van in contemporary Kurdistan.

Sumerian called it the land of "Karda" (3000 BC)
Tiglath-Pileser I had fought against "Qurti" from the same area (1050 BC)
Greek historian Xenophon called people who lived around Lake Van a "Karduchi" people. He called the area a Corduene (400 BC)
Artakhshir, the founder of the Persian Sassanid dynasty fought against the "Madrig the King of Kurdan" in same area (226 AD)

Driver reaches a conclusion that the term Kurd wasn't used differently by different nations and roots of modern Kurds can be found from the ancient Corduene region. He also said that the root of ancient Kurds are very likely in the land of Kardas.
