It containstables of the four arithmetical operations and is the oldest preserved complete manuscript on arithmetics. Such works of Shirakatsi, as 'Cosmography', 'On the signs of the Zodiac', 'On the clouds and atmospheric signs', ' On the movemenr of the Sun', 'On themeteorological phenomena', 'On the Milky Way', etc., are also preserved. Shirakatsi mentions the principles of chronology of the Egyptians, Jews, Assyrians, Greeks, Romans and Ethiopians, he speaks of the planetarymotion and periodicity of lunar and solar eclipses. Accepting theroundness of the Earth, Shirakatsi expresses the opinion, that the Sun illuminates both spheres of the Earth at different times and when it is night on one half, it is day on the other. He considers the Milky Way 'a mass of densely distributed and faintly luminous stars'. Shirakatsi agrees with those scientists, who believed that 'the moon has no natural light and reflects the light of the Sun'. He explains the solar eclipse as the result of the Moon's position between the Sun and the Earth. Shirakatsi gives interesting explanation to the rain, snow, hail, thunder, wind, earthquake and other natural phenomena. Shirakatsi has also written a number of works on the calendar, measurement, geography, history. In his book 'Weights and measures' together with the Armenian system of weights and measures the corresponding Greek, Jewish, Assyrian and Persian systems are given. It gives an opportunity to elucidate the sizes of the Eratosthenes' stadium, an issue in the world science. Among the mathematical works of the 11th century author Hovhannes Sarkavag 'Polygonal Numbers' is of exceptional interest. Its oldest copy is preserved at the Matenadaran (manuscript number 4150). It shows, that the theory of numbers was taught at the Armenian schools. Hovhannes Sarkavag has also introduced the reform of the Armenian calendar. The problems of cosmography and calendar were also discussed by the 12th century author Nerses Shnorhali in his work 'About the Sky and its decoration', by the 13th century author Hovhannes Yerzenkatsi Pluz in his work 'About the heavenly movement', by the 14th century scholar Hakob Ghrimetsi, by another author of the 14th century, the pupil of Hovhan Vorotnetsi, Mekhitar in his work 'Khrakhtshanakanner', by the 15th century scholar Sargis the Philosopher and others. The Armenian mathematicians have translated the best works of the world mathematical sciences. In the manuscript number 4166, copied in the 12th century, several chapters of 'The Elements of Geometry' by the famous Greek mathematician Euclid (3rd century BC) have been preserved in the Armenian translation. Some originals of foreign mathematicians' works are also preserved at the Matenadaran. Among the Arabic manuscripts, for example, is the 'Kitab al - Najat' ('The Book of Salvation'), written by famous Avicenna (Abu Ali ibn - Sina).

I think any barska-hye would tell you why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nairi Posted August 30, 2002 Report Share Posted August 30, 2002 You actually know a Parska-Hai who does NOT have at least one member in their family tree called Kirakos? Well, good heavens at least Shakira wasn't born in Iran... [ August 30, 2002, 02:33 PM: Message edited by: nairi ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boghos Posted August 30, 2002 Report Share Posted August 30, 2002 Giragos...even Hagop Baronian has written a small description of someone called Giragos. Here in Brazil they translate it to tye equivalent of Sunday in Portuguese, which may not be a very common name but at least it is not funny . Well, there are a few interesting (not to say funny) first names in name such as Partoghomios. But nothing beats the Soviet realist names...which were already discussed in a thread here.

Sip Posted August 31, 2002 Report Share Posted August 31, 2002 hahahaha .... actually, I was waiting for you to show up for the same reason Ok, I'll start. Shakira and Kirakosian. Let's just say, these names have a lot more in common with Dr. George's last name than it seems at first. THIS is his website... Dr. K was the guest speaker at some conference once and you can just imagine what I went through when I first heard his name. He is actually quite the expert in "Intelligent systems and fuzzy logic". Can you imagine? Hello, I am Dr K (an never mind) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this guy Armenian?? Okay, so now that we know what "kir" is, add a Shah (Takavor) to it and see what happens. Sip, your turn to explain "kirakos".

Sip Posted August 31, 2002 Report Share Posted August 31, 2002 quote:Originally posted by nairi:Is this guy Armenian??I doubt it. I would guess he is Czechoslovakian based on where he got his Ph.D. quote:Originally posted by nairi:Sip, your turn to explain "kirakos".Why do I always seem to end up with the hard ones? Ok let's see... kir and kos are like the Yin and Yang. The 1 and the 0 if you will... Ah I give up! There is just no way to bring any sort of dignity into this. I just hope Movses doesn't choke on his breakfast when he sees this in the morning (LA time) For now, I better run while I can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
