Rediscovering Armenia

An Archaeological/Touristic Gazetteer and Map Set for the Historical Monuments of Armenia

This guide was designed for several purposes, but its central goal is simply to exist, as a first taste of Armenia in English for enthusiasts willing to invest some attention in this country during a difficult transition period.

As the after-hours work of a non-specialist who has had time to visit only a selection of the sites mentioned, this guide is far from a complete archaeological, historical, cultural and/or practical guidebook to Armenia. It is only as accurate as its sources, some of which are vague or contradictory. I hope that other guidebook compilers, and several are reportedly at work, will improve upon the raw information contained herein, with the goal of opening up Armenia to the broadest possible range of tourism, study, and adventure.
