PeopleOfAr,
I’d like to congratulate you for your meaningful and beautiful initiative for setting up this blog.
I wished that there where more dedicated Armenians around; who appreciate their roots.
As I understand it if you have a blog in word-press you can automatically follow me by clicking the follow button. But if you haven’t then you need a feed reader of some kind. A well known feed reader is “Bloglines” http://www.bloglines.com/ . Or if it’s too much trouble just visit every now and then, I’ll try to update it as much as I can, thanks taking an interest 😀
According to the Treaty of Sèvres it is still Armenian land. Just because Turkey presently occupies it, doesn’t mean it is Turkish. Besides the issue here is its name which is Armenian. Turks don’t even call it Ararat, they call it Ağrı Dağı.
deraaan rmenian When you go visit or read about the Navajo (American Indian) sites & relics do you not know that they don’t belong to the European Americans? Hopefully you know better & are already aware that just because the Europeans took over the lands, it doesn’t mean those sites suddenly stopped being ancient American Indian sites. So, why do feel the need to make that kind of comment when it comes to Armenian ones, especially when everyone knows that the Armenians are not only more ancient than even the American Indians but that those Western Armenian lands (where Ararat… Read more »
I”m new to this blog and find some of the information infinitely fascinating. I’m particularly interested in the history of Horse breeding in Ancient Armenia.
<3 I'm gonna simply point out that you inspired me to continue digging into Armenian roots… I think you'd enjoy a documentary called "hayere" from Armenia actually 😀 should give you some more ideas on blog posts… Good to know I ain't the only one interested in our roots
thank you for your wonderfull comment and the move I’ll definatelly search for it. I have been very bussy for the past few weeks (familly stuff), so I haven’t made new posts for a while, but I intend to very soon. I have a huge list of very interesting topics about Armenian culture and history that I believe are very often overlooked by many. So stay tuned 🙂 I am very glad this blog inspire you, becuase all the things I post about are the things that inspire me aswell.
Whoever you are, my warmest greeting from Canada. Although I am not young, but I appreciate when young generation gets involved with meaningful and uplifting issues concerning their roots. The history of ARMENIANS extend over 20,000.00 years. there is a lot of literature from the past and new archeological findings confirm.
I wish you good luck. Continue your gracious work. Anahid

I have done extensive research of ancient civilizations going back as far as Portasar, determining the Armenian Highlanders being the catalysts for the rise of various civilizations. I would be an honor to contribute information that I have within various scientific disciplines that support the foundations of Armenian historicity.
You’re very welcome Vahan I’d love to learn about Armenia as much as I can. I’m very curious to find out more. Don’t shy away from contacting me (peopleofar@hotmail.com) if you need something posted or just exchange knowledge.
Do you know, that atomic weight numbers of metals matches to Armenian ”metallic” words.For example ՛՛Ոսկի՛՛ (voski) means gold, if you figure out the numeric value of word ՛՛Ոսկի՛՛ you will get the same number what is written on periodic table the atomic number of gold.
The letter ՛՛Ո՛՛ (vo) is 24th in Armenian alphabet.
Тhe lette ՛՛Ս՛՛ (s@) is 29th in alphabet.
The letter ՛՛Կ՛՛ (k@) is 15th in alphabet.
And the letter ՛՛Ի՛՛ (I) is 11th in alphabet.
24+29+15+11=79
The atomic number of gold=79 It’s amazing,isn’t it!
In general I do not enter into nonsensical discussions specially on the internet, but just for once let me tell you deraan rmenian. I assume you must be armenian. I assume you know the Armenian alphabet. the atomic weight numbers calculations IS NOT ‘nonsense calculation’ as you imply. Because, the sequence of the Armenian alphabet as we know it today was different. The alphabet was not discovered by Mashtotz, it existed, it was in use, it had to be improved in the design to make it more accessible to the public. Vowels had to be developed/created/designed, like any other language… Read more »
try for ARTs – Արծ․
The words don’t sound the same way as thousands years ago, for sure.
If you try PGhINDz (Պղինձ), you wouldn’t find anything interesting. You should try MED then – Մեդ, which is close to Russian MEDz (Медь, if you can read).
Only few names sound the same.. It’s clear..

The site is very good, the video clip of The Armenian Wheel of Eternity is excellent. Is there a possibility that it could be translated to other major languages such as French, Russian, Arabic, Spanish or other ?. If you need assistance please contact me.
Hmm interesting proposition, thank you. I was actually planning to release a part 2 on this symbol. But I will certainly consider your offer. Might be quite interesting translating it to other languages.
Great site keep up the good work! Also check out on facebook: “Historicity of the Armenian people: from neolithic era to the present” Educate your fellow people! this is the only way we can keep our history and culture alive. Thanks

Thank you very much for your beautiful website. Congratulations. How sad that the Wheel of Eternity appears nowhere on the flag of the Republic of Armenia, with its rather boring horizontal tricolor stripes. How appropriate if it could rival that of Japan, another culture with a veneration of the Rising Sun, with the Wheel at its center, and the three national colors – red, blue, apricot – somehow woven in the ensemble. For once, the Armenian Sun could eclipse the Turkish Crescent Moon and Star.
Thank you for your kind words, I’m glad you enjoy the information! 🙂

Consider the teaching of the immortality of the soul, a belief that some part of man lives on after the body dies. Again, the Church Fathers were instrumental in introducing this notion to a religion that had no teaching about a soul surviving death. The Bible clearly shows that the soul can die: “The soul that is sinning—it itself will die.” (Ezekiel 18:4) What was the basis for the Church Fathers’ belief in an immortal soul? “The Christian concept of a spiritual soul created by God and infused into the body at conception to make man a living whole is… Read more »
Time—The Silent Witness, The People of Armen The winding path of History with its labyrinth of twists and turns, and dead ends, has never stopped its frenzied momentum from the Red Sea of Eritrea in Africa. Do not be the last to know about World History, unplugged like you have never seen it before. It lifts the shroud on an ancient world that pulsated with life and mysteriously beckoned to anyone endowed with minimum courage tempered with maximum curiosity. After all, life is not just about a beginning and an end; a starting point and a final destination. It is… Read more »

It is said Mesrop Mashtots was instructed by Higher powers during creation of the Armenian alphabet 😉
Higher power means genusness
I guess it only works for gold, but not for the rest of the metals 🙂
