: Mandaeans are direct descendants of Babylonians of antiquity, not so much those referred to as Neo-Babylonians by historians, but those who lived in the same place for more than 6,000 years even before Sumerians ever built their ziqqurats. They still continue to live in south Iraq, and speak a variation of antiquated Babylonian, with Arabic and Syriac influences.

...just watched the video.
