    Re: Armenian Highlands: the birth place of civilization

    Armenian,
    I just came accross this site. Love it. Most info is a few years old though. First a question for you. I am looking for information on the Nairi. I do not mean just a few paragraphs. I mean, books, pamphlets, research material! Same for Sasun, not 1800's but beginnings (i.e. founding of Sasun). Have you come accross the name Tarauntis? Do you have any material linking Armenians to Hittitites? I always thought it was logical but never found any material to back up such a theory.
    Now a comment. I do not agree with your Pantheon. I would not include Hayk & Ara Geghetzik as deities. Legendary Heroes or Demigods, yes. Also, I think you are missing a god of the underworld. In Armenian Lore it was Spantaramet I believe.
    Best Regards,
    Sasun

      The Lords of Hattusa - The Ancient Hittite Empire

      Interesting documentary of this Ancient Empire... in the highlands of Anatolia, much like Armenia today, was landlocked.

        speaking of resurrection, the latest avatar was sort of unexpected although we could definitely feel something a few years ago, some sort of movement towards zoroastrianism... maybe a little taste for agitprop too.

            It's said that the Hittites originated from the Black Sea and Caspian Sea area. The Hittites where the earliest known, Indo-European peoples to develop a civilization and they also hold the distinction of ranking as one of the four great powers of the ancient world.

              Have better things to do - might watch them sometime in thefuture but it doesn't sound like a serious account - switched off at 3:31 after the words "Central Anatolia". To have that said in a 1900s context would make any archaeologist laugh. The map doesn't even show Constantinople in the right place!

                The "documentary" was made fairly recently and in a 2000 context, Ankara, sadly enough is in "Central Anatolia". Constantinople is generally considered the land East of the walls of Constantine. That large dot is probably depicting the Palace of Boukoleon.

                    When you say 'ancient world' are you referring to the actual world or the Near East?
                    For the first time in more than 600 years, Armenia is free and independent, and we are therefore obligated
                    to place our national interests ahead of our personal gains or aspirations.
