or info@circassianmuseum.co.il

The Circassian Home Museum, founded by the researcher and historian Adnan Bazadiq in Zarqa city, east of Jordan’s capital, Amman, is one of the few museums in the world that collects items representing the life of Circassians. The museum reflects the history of the Circassians, ancient customs, contemporary life, culture, food, and professions.
The museum consists of several sections containing rare documentaries, artistic and cultural films of this ethnic group, as well as large black and white photographs of Circassian figures hanging on the walls. Many years ago, Adnan Bazadok began researching and archiving everything related to Circassians in the world and turned his house into a Circassian heritage museum visited by many Jordanians and foreigners to learn about their history and culture. About 200 thousand Circassians live in Jordan, according to unofficial figures. Circassians came to Jordan in 1878, after Tsarist Russia displaced them during the Caucasus War. They live in Amman and Zarqa, enjoy all rights, and hold Jordanian citizenship since the establishment of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.

The Caucasian languages comprise a large and extremely varied array of languages in and around the Caucasus Mountains, which lie between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea. Linguistic comparison allows the classification of these languages into several different language families, with little or no discernible affinity to each other. However, the languages of the Caucasus are sometimes mistakenly referred to as a family of languages.

If you are interested to see your native language/dialect be featured here.
Submit your recordings to otipeps24@gmail.com.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

See the history of the Caucasus - the home of the greatest empires ; the place where civilizations were born and fell... - from 1000 BCE straight until the present day (2019).

This video introduces, as you see, presents to you a new kind of upgrated style by using flags next to the countries, so tell me if you liked this new style or if you prefered the previous one.

Anyway, enjoy the new video !

My presentation will be about the Circassian (Adyghe) language and its current situation. Circassian language belongs to the Northwestern Caucasian language family.

UNESCO classified Adyghe language in its 2009 UNESCO Map of the World’s Languages in Danger as vulnerable. It is mainly spoken in the Adygea region in contemporary Russia, and in diaspora countries in Turkey, Jordan, Israel, Syria, United States and Europe. Today, Circassian language is facing a number of challenges. In this talk I will try to introduce you to the Circassian language and the challenges it currently faces.

Umut Uğrak hails from Izmir, Turkey. He has a degree in Computer Science. Besides his degree, he’s a language enthusiast and also a freelance tutor/translator. He lived abroad in United Kingdom, United States, Germany and Poland in different periods. He’s fluent in English, Polish and has decent command of German and Russian languages. He likes travelling a lot and eager to meet with other polyglots/linguists from anywhere in the world.

This video was recorded at the Polyglot Gathering Online 2020 (https://www.polyglotgathering.com/).

Circassian History in 13 minutes. Part Two - Modern Times

Circassian History in 13 minutes. Part One.

Circassia... the land of the free Circassian people and the home of nobility and knighthood.

The idea of a Circassian flag is as old as the Circassian nation itself.

Historically, Circassian tribes had their own distinguished flags.

The idea of a unifying flag that represents all Circassians came from the leader and diplomat Sefer Bey Zhanoko in 1836.

Sewn by a Circassian princess in Istanbul, three copies of the new flag were sent to Circassia with David Urquhart the Scottish diplomat and friend of Sefer Bey.

Traditionally, a Circassian knight fills his pocket with arrows when heading to battle, but only takes three arrows when heading for hunting.

A symbol of peace but also power.

The twelve stars represent the twelve Circassian clans.

Green…. the colour of the great Caucasus meadows.

Later the black colour of arrows and stars on the flag was changed to yellow.

Since it was first designed in 1836, the current flag has been representing all the Circassians all around the world.

The Circassian nation Flag is the official flag of the Republic of Adyghea in the Russian Federation.

Today it is the oldest flag of all the Russian federation subjects.

In March 2010 Circassian Council (Адыгэ Хасэ) of the Republic of Adygea decided to celebrate 25th of April as the National Circassian Flag Day (Адыгэ Ныпым И Маф).

Since then, this date marks the Circassian celebration of their national flag all around the world.

We The World Circassian Youth Organisation believe that the Circassian flag is the symbol of our unity around the world.
It is the symbol of our nation's consciousness and future.
We are Circassians and this is the greatest symbol of our people.

A comparison of all the genocides committed throughout history by lowest to highest lowest estimated death toll.
What constitutes a genocide is a contentious issue but this list goes by the UN Convention's definition which is: "acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group".
Many events such as The Great Leap Forward are omitted due to not meeting this standard.
Apologies if any events that would count as a genocide are missing.

Source used for the information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/....List_of_genocides_by

It seems impossible that we would forget genocides of entire people, but events like the Assyrian genocide show us how fickle human memory can be. Also called the Sayfo, meaning ‘the sword’, the Assyrian genocide was one of three mass campaigns of extermination waged by the Ottoman Empire during the First World War. Alongside the more famous Armenian genocide and that of the Greeks, hundreds of thousands of Assyrians lost their lives in racially and religiously motivated atrocities at the command of the Ottoman government between 1914 and 1918.

The struggle of the Assyrians is easily overlooked, but it contains tales of incredible brutality and of admirable resistance. Today on A Day In History, we look at how the atrocities of the Sayfo unfolded, the deplorable ways that the Ottomans deceived their victims, and the stories of the men who took up arms to defend themselves from those who would exterminate them.

Prelude

The Assyrians are an ethnic group united by their shared languages which derive from ancient Aramaeic. Christianity They are also thorouglhy Christian although split between several denominations, of which the largest are the Orthodox Assyrian Church of the East and Syrian Orthodox Church, and the Chaldean Catholic Church.

Unlike the Armenians, the Assyrians have never been politically unified - there is no real link between the ancient Assyrian empire and the modern Assyrian people - and they were treated as a loose ethnic group with no fixed territory. Like other Christian minorities in the Ottoman Empire, they faced sporadic violence and persecution for decades before the genocide. In 1895, Assyrians were among the victims of the waves of violence that killed thousands of Christians across the Empire and they faced regular discrimination in law and public life. Violence from Turkish authorities and Kurdish raiders continued throughout the early 20th century with land seizures, forced conversion, and mob violence becoming regular features of life.

Things changed with the rise of Turkish ethnonationalism and the First World War. The Empire’s new ruler Talaat Pasha envisioned an ethnically Turkish empire where minorities were excluded, or eliminated. The Ottomans also saw the Assyrians as a security risk, fearing that they would side with Russia once the fighting began.

The Caucasus was runner-up in my patron poll, and then it won in the rematch. So, it's time we travel to this mountainous region and explore its complicated linguistic situation.

We go through major languages, family by family, briefly meeting Indo-European languages like Armenian and Kurdish, Turkic ones like Azeri, and even a Mongolic tongue named Kalmyk Oirat. Then, we see how linguists draw a line between "languages of the Caucasus" and the indigenous "Caucasian languages".

The Caucasian languages fall in three families: Northeast Caucasian, Northwest Caucasian, and Kartvelian in the south. Explore some of their intriguing features, including massive numbers of consonants and one of the earliest documented examples of something called "ergativity".

Despite some similar features, these languages don't belong to the same family. In fact, they may not even be a true "linguistic area"!

At the end, we're still left with the question: why so many languages? We'll consider how one linguist looks at the relationship between geography and the lives of language families.

Khabib Nurmagomedov: one of the most famous Muslims in the world. Proud of his Dagestani heritage, he is also seen representing Russia. So how did Dagestan come under Russian rule? Well, the same way that Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia did! The subject matter that we’re going to cover in this video sheds light onto a period of Persian history that was a far cry from the prestigious heights of its past glory. But the same can be said about the Islamic world in general because this was a period that brought an aggressive and energised Europe hell bent on acquiring resources from every corner of the world against Muslim states that had fallen behind in the race for technological progress.
