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?

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!
2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.
This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.
3] Keep the focus.
Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.
4] Behave as you would in a public location.
This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.
5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.
Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.
6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

- PLEASE READ -
Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.
8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)
If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

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.

Re: What do u no about ur armenian history?
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.Last edited by Sip; 11-07-2006, 08:14 PM.this post = teh win.
