IRAQ-RELIOGION-SABEANS
A Mandean man, known in Arabic as Sabean, takes part in the 'great feast' or the Mandaean new year rituals in Baghdad on July 19, 2010. The Sabeans, originally from southern and southeastern Iraq, say their religion is pre-Christian even though they revere John the Baptist. They speak a distinct language, Mandean, and their religious books are written in Sabaen script. Some 100,000 live in Iraq and they are officially recognized as a separate religion.
