Nestorian Arameans

"Amid the mountains of Kurdistan, and in the northwest province of Persia, Aserbeijan, are the relics of a branch of the great Semitic family, and of the oldest Christian sect — the Nestorians. As a sect, they date from the fifth century, and they are without doubt a branch of the Aramaeans, early converted to Christainity, and retaining many Jewish customs."
