WELCOME

The American Foundation for Syriac Studies works to distribute works of historical and cultural importance in the subject of Syriac. The Foundation is also committed to regular publications and lectures to bring knowledge on this extremely important subject.

We publish a website that is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, at www.syriacstudies.com. On this website, you will find many articles and books published on Syriac culture, history and language.

We are also proud to announce a new online Syriac dictionary Syriacstudiesdic.com on our website that translated between the English, Arabic, French and Syriac (Serto and Estrangelo) languages.

In the coming months, we look forward to publishing a quarterly newsletter (this being our first issue), continuing our translation efforts, and beginning a new lecture series for the benefit of our community.

Thank you for your support.
