Does anyone knows anything of Mar Bisho, mar Bishnaya?
The internet and the forums are becoming mome and more important in ethnographic studies. The networks available are huge and the information is shared constantly and directly between peers.
The Mar Bishu people (part of a wider tribe) left Mar Bisho to Urmia from 1915-1920, earlier migrations occured also but where not drastic. Many of them left to the US some years earlier.
Ask your parents, grandparents about info. if they have ever heard of Mar Bisho or Bishnaya.
Here is a collage from Innanamagazine... I am not sure how accurate the information on the church pictured below. Is it really in Iraq?? There is no way to contact Inanamagazine, info@ does not work, I could not find out who wrote this.
thanks for your help,
Sam
