ANAHIT and VACHAKAN A potentially fascinating animated feature of Aghayans fairytale ANAHIT http://media.pn.am/media/issue/182/397/textphoto/photo_182397_e86a70202.jpg http://media.pn.am/media/issue/182/397/textphoto/photo_182397_e86a70202.jpg http://www.panarmenian.net/eng/news/182397/ A delicious fairytale, araspel, hekiat(From the Arabic hikayat=spoken).

Vachakan, as a youth, to much consternations of his parents wishes was an introverted bookworm, who insisted to become a monk and live in isolation.. Untilhe meets and falls in love with Anahit, a peasant cattle ranchers daughter and voila He becomes a valiant prince, and eventually the wise, benevolent and fearless King.. Another principal actor is Vaghinak, his foster brother, best friend, wise counsel and fearless guardian. A teaser, the Opening Lines : See also #5 here; http://hyeforum.com/index.php?showtopic=16483 Looking for Vachakan we are redirected to Vache. ** Somewhere I had said that is from vach=tent, ir.

It is an old name mentioned by M. Khorenatsi in his "History" as Ashkhadar's daughter. It may also come from a part of the above-mentioned name Ashkhadar and Persian en diminutive suffix (Ashkh+en).

Dear Nazareth with all due respects and admirations for your invaluable contributions to our culture, history etc. you may have missed or ignored, I am surprised that you fell in the trap of the above bastardized so called new orthography- by Ivan the Terrible and Abeghian transliteration.

World’s Northernmost Armenian Church Opens in Yakutsk Newly-built Saint Karapet church in Yakutsk YAKUTSK, Russia (Arka)—An Armenian Apostolic church has opened in Russia’s icy Yakutia region, Novosti-Armenia reports, citing RIA Novosti. The new church, named Saint Karapet, was commissioned in June of 2011 to be built in the city of Yakutsk. All of the building materials for the church have been transported from Armenia with a construction cost of 100 million rubles (about $2.7 mil.), mostly raised by philanthropists and community parishioners. The opening ceremony was attended by deputy head of the government of the Sakha Republic (Yakutia), head of the Armenian community in Yakutia Khoren Sahakyan, head of a delegation from Armenia and governor of Aragatsotn province Sargis Sargsyan, representative of the Russian Orthodox eparchies of Yakutsk and Lensk Hieromonk Nikandr, and others. Head of the Novo-Nakhichevan and Russian eparchies of the Armenian Apostolic Church bishop Yezras Nersisyan consecrated the church and rendered a service at the ceremony, says the report. Busts of famous contemporary Armenians, including arctic and Antarctic explorer Artur Chilingarov, are installed outside the church building. The report also says a center with a Sunday school, a studio, and an office for the Union of Armenians of Yakutsk will be opened in the territory of the church this December. Kids of any ethnicity will have an opportunity to study literature, culture and history of Yakutia and Russia in the school. Discussion Policy Comments are welcomed and encouraged.

IS ARMENIA IN EUROPE and ARE ARMENIANS EUROPEAN? SO! ARE WE EUROPEAN OR ASIATIC The ever nagging and recurring dilemma. Is Armenia in Europe or?

Europe and Asia (Eurasia)are not geographically separate continents but rather Cultural and Racial divisions. West and East of the arbitrarily delineated Ural Mountains . or the River Don if you will, According to that arbitrary line half of Kazakhistan is in Europe. http://hyeforum.com/index.php?showtopic=32419&page=1&&do=findComment&comment=278331 So. Is Armenia in Europe and are the Armenians European? Indo-European? Are Indians European? If we listen to those who say the Mamikoneans are from China then at least half of us would be Asian. None of our immediate neighbors are classified as IE, except, maybe the Persians? The Persians used to speak an Indo-European language before it was koranized and arabicized known as Farsi.

AH!!! Finally, if ever so slowly the Third Color of the Armenian Flag becomes ԾԻՐԱՆԻ/TSIRANI. My wish is that they drop that suffix -գոյնgouyn/kouyn as it is unnecessary when plain TSIRANI is sufficient. I may know why they do it. To simply rhyme with the nickname of the Flag- Yerakuyn/Yeragouyn/ ԵՌԱ-ԳՈՅՆ/TRI-COLOR.

I wish I had made a note of it.

It was written in Armmenian that I could clearly read. The furk, looking straight into the camera, without batting an eye said it was written in some exotic language that they had not yet deciphered. The sad part. Those Eurpean idiots swallowed it hook line and sinker. **In Persian khar means donkey and in Arabic khara means sh*t.

See # 23 here; http://hyeforum.com/index.php?showtopic=45348&page=2&&do=findComment&comment=301029 Can we speak seriously about our culture and history without invoking that joker noah sandwiched in the middle of an otherwise serious documentary? Who will tells us the real origin and meaning of Yerevan/Erebuni? Ill give you hint. In the Assyrian Asi means East/Sunrise/ Asia and Ereb means West/ Erebuni(Europe)?

I had promised to not respond to your posts, I will make this a one time exception to set the record straight. You seem to have re-invented the wheel all over again before you peruse the forum to see what has been said before. Yes by all means, let us watch the video, with a huge grain of salt, Caveat Emptor, Buyer Beware! The video begins with an excellent onset, what to me initially seemed to be one of the best scientific documents, with archeology and Cuneiform records. But suddenly all of a sudden the bottom fell off, it lost all credibility and revealed that the emperor has no clothes , the so called science turned to Science Fiction and Fable (We love Jules Verne the father of Science Fiction, very entertaining) when at minute 16- on the Bible as a source of schmistory was brought on, that clownish idiot Noah landed on Mount Ararat and he founded the City of Yerevan. We have had enough Fiction and Fables for over 2000 years. It is time we advanceto the 21st C and talk Science. We need to use our heads, not hetuyqs. That video seems to be of Russian origin. Do we have serious Armenian Historian? See what our friend HagopN says about those so called Russian pseudo historian armenologists , the likes of Diakonov and company at # 56 here http://hyeforum.com/index.php?showtopic=7851&page=3
