PS: Shoutout to my friend Ruben and Pierre for the Armenian and Assyrian lyrics respectively! Also, I'm sorry that I couldn't write the lyrics of all the songs, but I couldn't find them or understand them all (especially the Assyrian ones). My apologies if I have spelling mistake in the Assyrian songs, I recently learned the alphabet, so I'm not proficient yet. For any correction or any suggestion in lyrics, feel free to comment below and I will correct or add them.
Thank you for watching!! I hope my message is clear enough. Did you enjoy the video? Did I add your favorite ones? See you in the next episode! Stay safe and stay tuned!

Unfortunately, most of the Assyrians were assimilated during the Arab expansion in Iraq and Syria.

As an Ethiopia Orthodox Christian my hear breaks every time I see the atrocities committed against our brothers and sisters. I pray for the Lord to judge for the genocides that was committed against his children! 🙏 Thank you for sharing this video. I have lived in Turkey and it is very interesting to see, how the Greek, Armenian, and Assyrians cultur and music has impacted the country. Though the Turkish language is dominant, the music, culture, and the majority of the DNA has remained pre-turkic era. Much love! ❤️
im an azerbaijani turk from eastern turkey but i admire the beautiful culture of native anatolians ❤️ amazing dance and amazing culture

Are you still Muslim, just curious. Your ancestors were.
Armenians in Armenia do not consider hamshen Armenians. they are called "Turks". During the Soviet era they were forbidden to settle in Armenia!

Thank you too!
No matter how far I am, Anatolia will always be in my heart and I never forget where I come from!! 💛🦅💛
As a Turk, I was born in Antep. There are still Armenian traces in many places, especially in historical buildings. When I lived there and looked at those historical buildings, I always tried to look at them from the perspective of an Armenian, not a Turk. The dances and music in the video are still used, even the words in the Cappadocian melodies are still exactly the same. It is very sad that you are away from the lands that are precious to you, but on the other hand, thank you for leaving this culture to us. I hope that one day we will be able to sing, play and enjoy these melodies here again. Thank you Vasilis
❤thank you dear

Thank you very much!!

Just say Assyrians. Arameans are confused and divisive.

Lots of love from an Assyrian. We love our Armenian and Greek brothers. My great grandparents are from Mardin where once Assyrians and Armenians were the majority living together as one people. As the genocide progressed, Assyrians and Armenians in the Diyarbekir Vilayet joined together in resistance against the Turkish and Kurdish Ottoman armies in fighting in the defence of Midyat, Iwardo (Gülgöze), Azakh (İdil), Basibrin (Haberli), Benebil (Bulbul), Beth-Debe, Hah, Hebob, Kerburan (Dergecit), and Zaz
Respect!! ✌️🙌
As I kurd, I & many kurds apologize for this genocide crime. I wish all native of these lands could come back to these lands live with in a rich culture.
Btw many kurds helped Assyrian and Armenians also.
@@lavieenconfinement3511 Kurds have apologized for the corporation with Turks against Christians of Anatolia, Kemal Ataturk promised them to give independence and he didn't keep his word ,Kurds were betrayed and upraised against Turks and they were slaughtered by them , now Kurds are with us in case of war between Greece and Turkey
@edps cupcake yes my brother/sister you are right. I am originally from Amed and I have 2 armenians friends. When they are with kurds they call themselves as Armenian. But when they meet with turks they identify themselves as Kurd. It's all because the racism and turkish fascism. Turk killed Armenians, Greeks, Assyrians, Pontos and now they slaughter Kurds.
@edps cupcake I was a Kurd, my great-grandfather saved two Armenian little girls by hiding them in the basement and looked after them as his adopted daughters until he got old and died. Although he was a Muslim, he never interfered with their religion. He saved 200 thousand Assyrian daughters from YPG ISIS in Syria. They were raping them. I love Assyrians / Armenians / Assyrians I'm sorry our grandfather betrayed you and they were punished for betraying you anyway I'm very good to you and will never be an enemy to you

To be fair, Yarkhushta may've originated in Sassun and Mush, but it extended all throughout the Armenian Highlands all the way until Cappadocia
Greetings from Assyria my brothers and sisters! In the Anatolian peninsula history unfolds, Assyrians, Greeks, Armenians of old. Whispers of empires, tales untold, In the land where ancient stories hold. In melodies that span the ages wide, Assyrian echoes, a cultural tide. Greek rhythms dance with a timeless pride, Armenian tunes, where traditions abide. Zerna, duduk and Kaval is where it's at, Folk dance rhythms, as the story molds. In the pulse of rave, ancient meets bold, A dance of souls, in a trance, untold! (Shlama Ashuria)
I AM ABOUT TO CRY THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL
Thank you mate, greetings from Armenia, i hope one day we can come back to our lands and again dancing our ancient dances
We will

Amazing work, congratulations! I had goosebumps all over my body while watching the different dances and listening to these traditional songs! Greetings from a Cappadocian Greek to all of the peoples of Anatolia.🤍
Thank you!! Greetings!
At 12:23, you see the 353,000, and that is the number of Pontian Greeks killed in the genocide. This is an incredibly beautiful and profound artistic homage to the precious Christians of Asia Minor -- so perfect, every detail, thank you. And to all watching, can you IMAGINE that these people groups lived in Asia Minor for millenia before the genocides of the early 20th century, when the Turks killed them and drove them out? Memory Eternal to each of the precious souls.

Απίστευτη δύναμη η δικιά σου να φτιάξεις τέτοια καταγραφή και συνάμα να είναι όμορφο ως χορογραφία. Εύγε μονο! Ο Θεος να δει σε δυναμην πάντα να εφτας την επιθυμίας πραξην!
Ευχαριστώ πολύ!!

What an original idea. Very well done. Enjoyed watching it. Thank you.
Thank you very much!
Thank you so much. The first piece is Aysenur Kolivar singing the traditional song of hamshil Armenians of the Black Sea region. Remember her performing ages ago on the concert of Armenian folk songs - she is a wonderful singer. I really love the energy you show in these dances. Yarkushta is a very energetic dance, the dance of warriors.
