The Atour Assyria Association in Armenia has been engaged in talks with
the Armenian government to request permission to raise a monument for
the victims of the Turkish genocide of Assyrians in World War One --
called Seyfo by Assyrians. Seventy five percent of Assyrians (750,000)
were killed between 1915 and 1919 by Turks and Kurds.
The planned monument will be placed in the Armenian capital Yerevan,
beside the monument for the victims of the Armenian genocide from
the same time. The monument will be about 12 square meters long,
3 meters high and 1.5 meters wide. The Atour Assyria Association is
now soliciting artists and architects for a design for the monument.
