Description:Isa tells us that 80% of the elderly would smoke tobacco in the village. The villagers did not grow tobacco because it needs much watering and water was not a luxury in Beth Qustan. They would therefore trade it from other villages.
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.
...
Isa was born in the village of Beth Qustan in 1948 and immegrated to Germany in 1979.
