Chaldean,

Please send me the full reference for this - it is pertaining to research I am doing on the area:  waleeta@gmail.com

Thank you SO much in advance.
 
Waleeta, that specific article is actually about Armenians. It is talking about Armenia as a nation, hence the "the country is bounded by the south by a kindgom of Mosul". But unfortunatly, I dont have access to the website anymore cause my free trial is over. Anyone can do the 7 day trial if they want, I strongly suggest it. I only did a small research and look at what I dug out. If one has the time, they can find some really great things. Just make sure you cancel it before the 7 days!

Regards

I wonder if their descendants know that they're Assyrian.

I reckon these newspapers didn't know any better, so they called so many regions Assyria.lol
