Shamasha Paul,

I just came across these three videos on YouTube entitled "Old Assyrian Book...Part 1,2 and 3". The "book" appears to have Aramaic Swadaya script and other writing with religious images. On the first page, however, the writing appears to be Arabic. At the end of the third video is a piece of paper that the camera man wants us to see with writing in a modern language that I can't make out, probably Turkish. I'm wondering, if this is indeed a genuine discovery in Turkey and not a hoax, what kind of a manuscript is it? Could it have belonged to someone from the Church of the East?
