Assyrian Hakkari and Bohtan Until 1915 Hakkari and Bohtan, in current-day Turkey, were home to more than 200,000 Christian Assyr We have not forgotten and we shall never forget.

As the clock ticks to the 100th anniversary of the Assyrian, Armenian and Greek Genocides, this Community page serves as a reminder of what was lost. In short, it is an attempt to document the Assyrian villages, churches and monasteries of the Hakkari and Bohtan regions, which served as a cradle for that culture, as well as for the Church of the East, over at least two millennia. More importantly,

this page serves to provide a visual aspect to the village, district and tribal names to which many Assyrians are still attached today, and with which they still identify. Hopefully, as more and more albums are added, viewers will be able to trace their own paths through their ancestral homeland and rediscover their history and cultural heritage.
