This book that has been authored by members of the Syriac(n) Orthodox Community strives to provide an insight and brief historical background on the Syriac(n) Orthodox Church, its dogma, and language. This was done through the provision of one of the major stories derived from an old Syriac manuscript that has not been translated into English before. The authors examine what is being called The Forgotten Genocide. This specific genocide affected the original inhabitants of the land of Mesopotamia (Syriacs/Arameans). These Syriacs/Arameans were faced and continue to face diverse types of persecutions. In this book, the authors shall first explore the events that took place leading to the main Genocide of 1915, which is also known as the Syriac Genocide (SAYFO/SEPA/SWORD, or what has been dubbed as The Forgotten Genocide). This book will endeavour to bring to light a historical account of the ancient people of Mesopotamia, leading to the events that resulted in the several persecutions of these people, specifically during the Genocide of 1915. The authors derived from diverse sources, including some ancient rare manuscripts that have not been translated into English from Syriac/Aramaic; these will be supported by evidence derived from some of what has been translated into English, including personal accounts. The significance of this lies in the fact that the empirical evidence, including the population at the time the number of those who were forced to convert and the number of those who were killed at the time, will allow the recognition of this Syriac/Aramaic Genocide. This book commences with a brief historical background on the origin of Christianity in this region and the historical background of the Syriac(n) Orthodox Church, leading to an explanation of the atrocities at the hands of the Ottoman Empire, providing a backdrop for the understanding of the context at the time, and concluding with some insights of the latest atrocities against the same people in parts of the Middle East. These are actions taken by patriarchs and people to face such ongoing atrocities.
