#Urartian belt depicting a warrior (perhaps God Ha

#Urartian belt depicting a warrior (perhaps God Haldi) hunting a serpent-like dragon creature (Vishap), reminiscent of Vahan the dragon slayer from Armenian mythology and the later Christian St. George.

Belts were an indispensable accessory for men's and women's clothing in the #ancient #Armenian kingdom of #Urartu. So much so that it was used not only as an accessory, but also as an indicator of their status and wealth. It is even thought that belts, together with clothing and other jewelry, had an important function in determining the rank of certain officials in the state administration. A large number of metal belts were produced and used in the Urartian Civilization, which ruled the Armenian Highlands during the Iron Age. No other civilization in the Near East used metal belts as intensely as the Urartians in the first millennium BC has yet been encountered.

These belts can be grouped by gender because the decorations and the width of the belts differ according to the genders. The belts used by men are generally wide and medium in width and have lion and bull figures on them. On the narrow belts used by women, there are mostly sheep, fish and waterfowl figures. In addition to religion, hunting, war and similar subjects, mythological creature figures are often depicted on Urartian belts. These belts, which are usually made of bronze and rarely silver, are thought to have been produced in official workshops.

NEWS: Archaeologists have uncovered a name of a previously “unknown country” from an #Urartian shield belonging to King Argishti. The name on shield reads: “Qarini”. It is likely a reference to the #Armenian city/province of Erzeroum anciently known as Karin. Most of the “lands” in Urartian records refer to provincial lands on the Armenian Highlands owned by feudal lords who where trying to establish their own city states.

@bbc_hardtalk Stephen Sackur offered a “political deal” (a.k.a. assimilation) or “leave” (a.k.a. ethnic cleansing) as the “only realistic options” facing #Artsakh’s Armenians. FYI., forcing people to leave their land on threat of death is a form of #genocide.

Mehriban Aliyeva wearing an Urartian religious symbol on her dress. The symbol was also found on the Pazyryk carpet. Most experts believe the carpet originated in #Urartu due to its pattern symbolism and the red dye used that was anciently found on the Ararat plains.
