Description:Lahdo tells us about the age of the local church, St Elijah, which has recently been renovated, when an inscription was found between its walls dating it back to 343/4 or 333/4 in the Syriac language. He specifically regrets the fact that the ancient tree in its courtyard dried out during the renovations, and it was therefore uprooted.
The Beth Qustan dialect of the Central Neo-Aramaic, Turoyo, which is the language of Tur 'Abdin, South Eastern Turkey, with an estimated 20 families remaining in the village.This project will document socio-cultural practices of the Turoyo speaking community in Tur 'Abdin, focusing on vernacular tales, particularly those that demonstrate cultural interaction between Muslims and Christians, including Muslim visitations to the shrines of Christian saints, and consultation of soothsayers by Christians.
