Most armenians dont no anything about their own heritage and their history involved with that heritage. Most armenians that i am familiar with, only no that the armenians were victims of a genocide and it ends at that. BUt they dont know that our race has been around for more than 20,000 years, and yes their are evidence proving this bold stament. We are the notorious SUmerians, and we've had large influences on Egyption, European and Mexican development in our past. So my question to u guys is, why dont Armenian learn more about their history?

Re: What do u no about ur armenian history?

at first I thought this thread is gonna be about each persons personal family history...which is also important...a lot of people don't know and don't ever bother to ask their grandparents where they come from, etc, etc.

Re: What do u no about ur armenian history?
Dude, that's much better. When you're trying to start an intellectual discussion and discuss history, having good grammar and spelling helps us take you seriously.
There are some claims you're making that I have heard of, but haven't read any serious academic research on. Then there are some wild ass assertions like the Mexican connection. The only Egyptian connection I've heard of is that Queen Nefertiti was of Urartian lineage. I mean where is Egypt and where is Anatolia/Caucusus.
As far as Armenians, as Armenians/Hayks, not peoples/tribes that make up the Armenian cultural/genetic core, being the oldest peoples in the world is also something I haven't read. I know that 3000 years ago the unique and distinct Armenians national character was being defined, and it was made up of elements and cultures that very easily could boast to be the oldest or some of the oldest, like Hittites, Phrygians, etc. Also, certainly Armenians are an ancient and classic nation that played a role in the political and cultural make-up of the cradle of civilization, but oldest people?
Also, the thing about the alphabet doesn't make sense. I mean I knew Surb Mashtoc was a great scholar and a learned man, but a Chemist? I did read somewhere that Armenian lanuage is one of the most diverse (sounds-wise) languages in the world.
Anyways, I'm not an expert, and we have some folks here who have conducted a serious academic search for questions to answers about our origins. I wonder what's their opinion about some of your claims.
Other than that I agree that it'd be nice if we Armos were more interested in our own history than history of other nations. I personally wish I knew more about our ancient roots.Last edited by karoaper; 11-07-2006, 05:41 PM.

Originally posted by hroapeArmenian people had the maps of the world dating more than 15,000 years.
Originally posted by hroapeFor instance, each letter in our alphabet represents the first 36 elements. When you spell gold in armenian,"artsat" and use the elements that they represent you get gold. and this has been tested, but its not commonly used because of cost.Unless you want to claim Armenians knew how to do nuclear fission and fusion reactions a few thousand years before everyone else too.
