Re: Gurun

Didn't that website also have survivors' accounts? If we get the former webmaster's permission, perhaps they can be hosted here?

The archive.org website link I put on the first post has links to some survivors accounts but the whole book they came from doesn't seem to have ever been completely translated and put online. I didn't post the accounts because I didn't want to copy the whole content (though maybe we should, to prolong its online survival since both the original websites no longer exist). Some of the other archive.org snapshots also have some of the website's photos.

I was looking for info about Gurun because I might visit there this summer (and before the rebuilding of the surviving Armenian church in Gurun begins, I hope). Strange that this other website has no mention of Gurun: http://team-aow.discuforum.info/index.php - it might be one of the ugliest looking sites on the internet but its "Les villes d'Arménie Occidentale" and "Les églises de l'Arménie Occidentale" sections has a lot of content about Armenian sites in Turkey.

Re: Gurun

LOL. I've come across that site before.

The marquees, colors, and especially that horrid banner would have looked outdated even if the site existed in the mid-to-late 90s. And my preteen self had already designed some ugly-looking websites on Geocities and Angelfire back then, so I would know.

I do miss free web hosting services.
