Assyrian people

Assyrian people (Syriac: ܐܫܘܪܝܐ‎), or Syriacs (see names of Syriac Christians), are an ethnoreligious group indigenous to the Middle East. Some of them are known as Chaldeans, and others as Arameans. They speak modern Aramaic, whose subdivisions include Northeastern, Central, and Western Neo-Aramaic, as well as another language, dependent on the country of residence. The Assyrians claim descent from one of the oldest civilizations in the world, dating back to 2500 BC in ancient Mesopotamia.
