About AIM

ProjectsAssyrian Information Management (AIM) is a virtual Internet-based organization and academic repository which created and currently develops atour.com.

Founded on December 10, 1996, the organization's primary objective is to promote Assyrian history, language, culture and most importantly, to bring international awareness and recognition to the Assyrian nation, both in our homeland and throughout the world.

The organization develops many Internet related projects, click on the Projects section for details.  AIM is also independent of political persuasion, tribal affiliation, religious creed and is financed primarily by donations and sponsors.

The server and its websites consisting of web documents, images, photographs, audio and video files, are blended together to form a unique Internet presence.

About AIM Personnel

We are a volunteer-based organization.  The people developing the website(s) are Assyrian activists, artists, authors, engineers, journalists and writers, and their scope of work and participation varies according to their professional experience and skill levels.  There are also English-speaking friends and scholars who write, translate and forward articles.  We are volunteers and devote our time to bring tangible results for our communities.

Our website presence continues to grow because of our readers' dedication of forwarding information to us for posting, to ensure our communities are aware of global events which may effect us.  Thus, if you've previously sent us an article, document, audio or video file, photograph, community news, or any other type of material, then you are also part of our development family.

Assyrian \ã-'sir-é-an\ adj or n (1998)   1:  descendants of the ancient empire of Ashur   2:  the Assyrians, although representing but one single nation as the direct heirs of the ancient Assyrian Empire, are now doctrinally divided, inter sese, into five principle ecclesiastically designated religious sects with their corresponding hierarchies and distinct church governments, namely, Church of the East, Chaldean, Maronite, Syriac Orthodox and Syriac Catholic.  These formal divisions had their origin in the 5th century of the Christian Era.  No one can coherently understand the Assyrians as a whole until he can distinguish that which is religion or church from that which is nation -- a matter which is particularly difficult for the people from the western world to understand; for in the East, by force of circumstances beyond their control, religion has been made, from time immemorial, virtually into a criterion of nationality.   3:  the Assyrians have been referred to as Aramaean, Aramaye, Ashuraya, Ashureen, Ashuri, Ashuroyo, Assyrio-Chaldean, Aturaya, Chaldean, Chaldo, ChaldoAssyrian, ChaldoAssyrio, Jacobite, Kaldany, Kaldu, Kasdu, Malabar, Maronite, Maronaya, Nestorian, Nestornaye, Oromoye, Suraya, Syriac, Syrian, Syriani, Suryoye, Suryoyo and Telkeffee. — Assyrianism verb

Aramaic \ar-é-'máik\ n (1998)   1:  a Semitic language which became the lingua franca of the Middle East during the ancient Assyrian empire.   2:  has been referred to as Neo-Aramaic, Neo-Syriac, Classical Syriac, Syriac, Swadaya and Turoyo.
