Hope one was with my friend Gev, who managed to get out in one of the last cars with a khachkar wrapped in a blanket.
Also another friend, Davit Babayan is STILL BEING HELD in Azerbaijan.

Los jachkar o khachkar (cruces de piedra) son muy importantes para los armenios porque son parte de su tradición e identidad. Las más antiguas datan del siglo IX, pero la técnica de tallado y ornamentación alcanza su punto máximo durante los siglos XIV.
En Erevan existe una plaza dedicada a ellas

I wrote this after reading about the Lebanon-Israel "peace deal" because it reminded me so much of the one between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
Around that time, friends in the KRI alerted me to fresh bombing of Kurdish villages by Turkish forces which the Kurdistan Regional Government played down

Khachkar di marmo (croci di pietra tipiche dell'arte armena medievale), ritrovato a Roma, in Vaticano. Questo khachkar fu eretto dalla comunità armena di Roma nel 1246, il cui capo, un certo Stefano, proveniva dal monastero dei Santi Apostoli di Mush (vicino al lago Van).

Nakhichevan was cleansed in 2000s, and the motivation for that was to erase Armenian traces in the region. Recently however AZ developed a new attitude towards Khachkars: AZ propaganda now claims that AR "forges" crosses, "artificially ages" them, and plants them to claim "fake" historic presence 🤯

The Khachkar of All #Armenians - a symbol of unity created by a woman artist for a vulnerable people, who've been subjected to centuries of genocide by invading Turks and Azerbaijanis (Tatar Turks).

According to Avanesov, the Mayraberd complex included monuments commemorating the Great Patriotic War (World War II), the Artsakh War, and a khachkar (traditional Armenian cross-stone) honoring the victims of the Armenian Genocide and the anti-Armenian pogroms in Sumgait.

Seen yesterday on Wikipedia the ~ 15ft/5m tall late 12th century #Armenian Khachkars (cross stones) of Aparank Monastery, Üçpınar, Tercan in Erzincan Province, eastern Turkey. I was here in 2022. Even in ruins there was beauty. A 3rd fallen Khachkar symbolic of continued divide.

This propaganda leads to obvious results. If Armenians are enemies (and they are portrayed as enemies for last 30 years), and if their stone crosses are fakes, then they need to be erased. Which is precizely what happened in 2020. Some churches (like St Mary Church in Mekhakavan) were destroyed too.

El principal patrimonio de Armenia son sus monasterios. Enclavados en lugares lejanos y en parajes naturales muy bellos, merece la pena visitar Khor Virap, Noravank o Havhannavank y quedarse encandilado por el silencio y los preciosos khachkars.

Recorrido por los monasterios más bonitos de Armenia
Si vas a recorrer a Armenia, que no te queda la menor duda de que visitarás unos cuantos monasterios. Los monasterios medievales se comenzaron a construir a partir del siglo IV y algunos se han seguido ampliando hasta el XIX, aunque suelen decir que los construidos desde el siglo XVII son “modernos”. Gran parte de ellos son Patrimonio de la Humanidad…
