Adapt to what?

Re: Armenian Stone Henge Story - CNN

wow now you all people forget what our grandparents told about our history and our roots,and some how you all made it to no armenian has lived before 500 B.C, to explain armenian history one is have to take as example the development of greek history,and it goes back as 10 000 B.C so the most ancient people in the region is armenians with out doubt,maybe we are not living in those lands but our foot prints are still worm and misinterpreted by denial,some people dont wont to believe that such a small nation so few people are so ancient with huge cultural heritage can not be.

Our government must promote our history like the greeks did.

History of Urfa (Urhai)

Urhai: Encyclopedia

The city has been known by many names in history: Ուռհա in Armenian,Urhai in Aramaic, ܐܘܪܗܝ, Riha in Syriac, الرها, ar-Ruhā in Arabic, Ορρα, Orrha in Greek (also Ορροα, Orrhoa). For a while it was named Callirrhoe or Antiochia on the Callirhoe (Greek: Αντιόχεια η επί Καλλιρρόης). During Byzantine rule it was named Justinopolis. Although, prior to the Turkish rule, it was often best known by the name given it by the Seleucids, Εδεσσα, Edessa.

'Şanlı' (from Arabic: shan, شأن dignity + Turkish adjectival suffix -lı) means great, glorious, dignified in Turkish and Urfa was officially re-named Şanlıurfa (Urfa the Glorious) by the Turkish Grand National Assembly in 1984, in recognition of the local resistance in the Turkish War of Independence. The title was achieved following repeated requests by the city's members of parliament, desirous to earn a title similar to those of neighbouring rival cities 'Gazi' (veteran) Antep and 'Kahraman' (Heroic) Maraş.
History

The history of Şanlıurfa is recorded from the 4th century BC, but may date back to the 9000 BC, when there is ample evidence for the surrounding sites at Duru, Harran and Nevali Cori.[3] It was one of several cities in the Euphrates-Tigris basin, the cradle of the Mesopotamian civilization. According to Turkish Muslim traditions Urfa (its name since Byzantine days) is the biblical city of Ur, due to its proximity to the biblical village of Harran. However, some historians and archaeologists claim the city of Ur is in southern Iraq. Urfa is also known as the birthplace of Job.
According to tradition, Nimrod had Abraham immolated on a funeral pyre, but God turned the fire into water and the burning coals into fish. The pool of sacred fish remains to this day.

Urfa was conquered repeatedly throughout history, and has been dominated by many civilizations, including the Ebla, Akkadians, Sumerians, Babylonians, Hittites, Hurris, Armenians, Mittannis, Assyrians, Chaldeans, Medes, Persians, Macedonians (under Alexander the Great), Seleucids, Arameans, Osrhoenes, Romans, Sassanids, Byzantines, and Crusaders.

Re: Armenian Stone Henge Story - CNN

Yet, if Gobekli Tepe were in the territory of present-day Armenia, Kanadahye would claim its builders to be Armenians! My reply to Kanadahye's question was dismissive becasue the whole premise of his question was so utterly wrong.

Sorry to disappoint. When Armenians ruled, we made losers like yourself do the hard labor. However, we did take the credit for it anyways. But I wouldn't claim it was built by Armenians.
