Mountain Nestorian is an older name for those members of the autocephalous East Syrian "Church of the East" who settled in the mountains of today's Turkish province of Hakkari until their exodus in 1915 . The center of these " Nestorians " (alias: Assyrians ) was the place Qudshanis , the seat of their Catholicos-Patriarch.
