Louise, I can’t zero in on the particular article. Can you point to it or copy and paste? Some of us may be able to read it.

In the meantime see the latest. We have spoken extensively about Sinan the Builder/Architect. Yet, I doubt if they will ever mention his Christian Armenian origin.

ISTANBUL, JUNE 12, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. The year of famous

Armenian architect Sinan's memorial started in Turkey. According to

panarmenian.net, the solemn ceremonies began at President's Palace with

a documentary film about Sinan.

 

Events dedicated to Sinan are also planned to be held in London,

Jerusalem, Paris and Cairo.

 

The famous Ottoman architect Sinan was born in an Armenian family in

1489. They wanted to make him a yenicheri, but then Sultan Selim sent

him to learn painting and architecture.

That list is not of famous Armenians, we discovered that it is an old list of French Armenians, that the Turks have found on the web.

They are publising again now. It is to throw in the waste basket. May be they will make in new list.
