The biblical GN, '''ASSYRIA''' is the English rendering of the original [[ASSYRIAN|A<small>SSYRIAN</small>]] name of their homeland, Aššur, and the city of the same name, probably after their patron god, Aššur. As has been pointed out, the biblical genealogies give “Asshur, . . . the son of Shem” ([http://scriptures.lds.org/en/1_chr/1/17#17 1 Chronicles 1:17]) as the eponymous ancestor of the [[ASSYRIAN|A<small>SSYRIANS</small>]] (Reynolds, DBM 85).
'''A<small>SSYRIA</small>''' is the name of an ancient Near Eastern land located in Mesopotamia. It occurs in the [[ISAIAH|I<small>SAIAH</small>]] section of the 2 Nephi with reference to the biblical land but does not refer to a separate Book of Mormon [[Geographical Name|GN]] or [[Personal Name|PN]]. The [[Geographical Name|GN]] '''A<small>SSYRIA</small>''' may derive from one of their capitals, Assur, itself probably taken from their national god, Assur.
