Waashuru
(Elekezwa kutoka Waashuri)
Waashuru (kwa Kiaramu ܣܘܪܝܝܐ) ni kabila la Kisemiti la watu wa Mesopotamia kaskazini, ambao leo kwa kiasi kikubwa wanaishi nje ya nchi yao asili (hasa katika Iraq na Syria za leo, pamoja na maeneo madogo ya Uturuki na Iran), hasa Marekani, Ulaya Magharibi na Australia.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
Kwa jumla duniani kote wanakadiriwa kuwa kati ya milioni 2 na 4.25. Wengi wao ni Wakristo (hasa Kanisa Katoliki la Wakaldayo na Kanisa la Waashuru la Mashariki), na kwa sababu hiyo wamedhulumiwa na watawala mbalimbali kwa karibu miaka 2000 mfululizo.[7]
Waashuru wana historia tukufu upande wa ustaarabu na siasa kwa kuwa walirithi na kueneza utamaduni wa Wasumeri na Waakadi ambao ndio wa kwanza duniani katika mambo mengi.
Hasa dola la Ashuru lilistawi kati ya karne ya 24 KK na karne ya 7 KK liliposhindwa na Wakaldayo wa Babuloni (605 KK).
Biblia inazungumzia mara nyingi habari za dola hilo lililokuwa tishio kwa Waisraeli na mataifa mengi ya Mashariki ya Kati kwa muda mrefu.

Retrieved 2014-09-14. "Based on interviews with community informants, this paper explores socialization for ingroup identity and endogamy among Assyrians in the United States. The Assyrians descent from the population of ancient Assyria (founded in the 24th century BC), and have lived as a linguistic, political, religious, and ethnic minority in northern Iraq, northwest Iran, northeast Syria and southeast Turkey since the fall of the Assyrian Empire in 605 BC. Practices that maintain ethnic and cultural continuity in the Near East, the North America, Europe and elsewhere include language and residential patterns, ethnically based Christian churches characterized by unique holidays and rites, and culturally specific practices related to life-cycle events and food preparation. The interviews probe parental attitudes and practices related to ethnic identity and encouragement of endogamy. Results are being analyzed.".
