The Assyrian Christians (often called Chaldean Christians) were originally Nestorians. They gradually entered into communion with Rome from the 16th century onwards & use a liturgy and liturgical language that dates back to the time they were Nestorians. Thus these Christians are not Orthodox but rather Catholics using an ancient rite once used by Persian Christians.
