Sip Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Looks like one of those treasure maps that Nic Cage willl decipher in 3 minutes and it will lead to some massive amount of riches buried underground in Washington DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arpa Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 (edited) When I read the above response by the initiator of this thread, I could not make head or tail, I could not understand a word. It seems like they may have written in another language and let the online translator translate it.Even after rezading it several times I still have no idea what it says.BTW. We know that "toprak" is a furkish word to mean "soil/land/hogh". Some call it "dirt" in English.----Dictionary- Dirt;Definition of DIRT1 a : excrement b : a filthy or soiling substance (as mud, dust, or grime) c archaic : something worthless d : a contemptible person 2 : loose or packed soil or sand : earth 3 a : an abject or filthy state : squalor b : corruption, chicanery c : licentiousness of language or theme d : scandalous or malicious gossip e : embarrassing or incriminating information .learners-link } Pack dirt loosely around the base of the plant.You've got some dirt on your face.Their shoes were covered with dirt.No amount of cleaning will get rid of all this dirt.Origin of DIRTMiddle English drit, from Old Norse; akin to Old English drītan to defecate First Known Use: 13th century Related to DIRTSynonyms: clod, earth, ground, mold, soil Edited February 4, 2011 by Arpa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sip Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Arpa, isn't "toprak" also a "small box" or "package" in Armenian? I know because I am pretty sure I remember hearing Santa would bring a lot of topraks (of presents). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yervant1 Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Toprak, thanks for the Armenian alphabet! It helped a lot. In my opinion this is a tombstone taken from an Armenian cemetery the letters are damaged by nature and the person who copied it on paper did a drawing of it. As is the article is not readable, it's not making any sense, since you live in Istanbul why don't you take it to the Armenian school and let them read it for you, maybe the real stone will be more readable.

Those treasure hunters, which I call them scavengers are still looking for Armenian gold! As if what they took is not enough. Thanks for your interest in the matter, but the only way to read it is to put the stones together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nairi Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 It looks like abbreviated Classical Armenian. You should ask a priest or deacon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
