LEAD ME LORD(COVER 13MINS)|SAGHMOSAVANK MONASTERY&ARMENIA ALPHABET MONUMENT|EXPLORE???????? ARMENIA
The Saghmosavank (Armenian: Սաղմոսավանք, lit. monastery of the Psalms) is a 13th-century Armenian monastic complex located in the village of Saghmosavan in the Aragatsotn Province of Armenia. Like the Hovhannavank monastery which is five kilometers south, Saghmosavank is situated atop the precipitous gorge carved by the Kasagh river. Their silhouettes dominate the adjacent villages and rise sharp against the background of the mountains crowned by Mount Aragats.
Armenian Alphabet Monument is located in Artashavan village of Aragatsotn region, on the Western slope of Mount Aragats. The complex was built in 2005, on the 1600th anniversary of the creation of Armenian alphabet.
The complex includes sculptures of 39 letters of Armenian alphabet, as well as monuments to the great Armenian thinkers. All the letters and statues are made of Armenian tufa. Armenian language is an independent branch in Indo-European language family. Armenian alphabet was created by Mesrop Mashtots in 405; it is used in Armenia, Nagorno-Karabakh, Javakhk, in communities of Armenian Diaspora, in different armenological and cultural centers.
A rich literature was created in Armenian language; this is a writing of ancient, medieval and modern civilizations. It also has its contribution in world culture.

There are several monuments near the Highway in ArtaShavan village of Armenia. These are a little different from other monuments. Because these are 39 large-sized Armenian language monuments. These memorials have been dedicated to people of Armenian language. The Armenian alphabet is more than 1600 years old. But it is still being used on its original form. In order to make the Armenians read the Bible and to spread Christianity, an Armanian linguist and priest, named Saint Mesparat Mashtut, introduced the alphabet in the year 405. Before 405, the Armenians did not have their own alphabet, and instead they used to use Greek farsi and Syriac alphabet, but they would have been very complicated for their mother tongue. Mesrosap Mashtut first solved this complex problem of Armenians by inventing the alphabet. With the help of the king of Armenia, he first created a set of thirty-six letters and later added three more letters. As a result, the total number of letters stands at forty nine. After the development of the new alphabet, Mashrapar established schools throughout Armenia, where education began in Armenian language. In 405, this alphabet was created by Armenian literature and proved to be a constructive strong factor of the Armenian national solidarity. It is widely acknowledged that if this new alphabet was not discovered then the Armenians could easily be absorbed by Persians and Syrians, and the ancient Armenian culture had disappeared so far. Indeed, the alphabet became the Armenian culture and its own known standard measure.

Armenia National anthem- for Armenian 27th Independence day!! Մեկ Ազգ, Մեկ Մշակույթ.Interesting facts about Armenia
When you go to Armenia you should know certain things about the country. Here are, to our mind, 16 most interesting facts about Armenia.
1. Armenia is an ancient country
Armenia, along with Iran, China, Greece, Egypt and Japan, is among the 6 ancient countriesthat have survived for thousands of years. Armenia was first mentioned in king Dari I’s Behistun manuscript in 520 BC. Armenia was also mentioned in ancient Greek authors Herodotus and Xenophon in the V century BC.
2. First country to adopt Christianity
Armenia is the first country to adopt Christianity as state religion. Jesus Christ’s apostles Thaddeus and Bartholomew preached in Armenia and Armenian Apostolic Church is named after them. Gregory the Illuminator (Lusavorich), who baptized Armenia in 301, became the first Catholicos of All Armenians. Armenia became the first Christian state.
3. The first church in the world was built in Armenia
Echmiadzin Cathedral was the first official church, built in the IV century. First Catholicos Gregory the Illuminator (Lusvorich) dreamed that Christ came down from the sky with a fiery hammer in the hand and pointed out the place to build a church. In the year 303 in that place, where at the time was an ancient pagan temple, the church was founded, named Echmiadzin.
Christ’s Spear (Spear of Longinus), which the Roman soldier Longinus thrust in Jesus Christ, is kept in the treasury of the Echmiadzin Cathedral. Since 2000, the cathedral is in the list of UNESCO World Heritage.
4. Yerevan is one of the oldest cities in the world
Yerevan, the 13th capital city of Armenia, one of the oldest cities in the world, is located in the north-eastern part of the Ararat Valley. It was founded in 782 BC by King Argishti I. Yerevan is 29 years older than Rome. In 2018 Yerevan will celebrate its 2800 anniversary.
5. The Armenian alphabet is one of the most advanced in the world
The Armenian alphabet was created in 405-406 AD by a scholar and monk Mesrop Mashtots. The key to creating the Armenian alphabet served the ancient Armenian language, consisting of 28 letters, which absolutely didn’t correspond to the sounds of the Armenian language. Mashtots’ alphabet consists of 36 letters. 7 letters convey vowel sounds and 29 letters - consonants. After the XII century 2 more letters appeared in the alphabet, and in 1940 through the merger of existing two letters another letter appeared in the alphabet, but it has no title. Scientists consider the Armenian alphabet one of the three most advanced in the world, along with Georgian and Korean alphabets.
Mesrop Mashtots is also the creator of the Georgian and Albanian alphabets. More than one thousand six hundred years the Armenian alphabet exists almost unchanged. The monument to the Armenian alphabet and its creator Mesrop Mashtots is in the village of Artashavan, on the slope of Mount Aragats.
6. The world's first textbook of arithmetic problems was created by an Armenian mathematician
The world's first textbook of arithmetic problems was created by an Armenian scientists the VI century mathematician David the Invincible. A sample of this book is kept at Matenadaran - the Institute of Ancient Manuscripts named after St. Mesrop Mashtots. Matenadaran is one of the largest repositories of manuscripts in the world. Matenadaran is also the world's largest repository of ancient Armenian manuscripts.
7. Armenia is the homeland of apricot
Armenia is considered to be the homeland of apricot. This is due to the history of the penetration of apricot from Asia to Europe. The famous French biologist De Poerderle (fr. De Poerderlé) in the XVIII century, wrote: The name of this tree comes from Armenian, Asian province, where it appeared and from where it was brought to Europe ...
Previously it was thought that in the XIX century, the apricot was imported from Armenia to Greece by Alexander the Great, and then from Greece to Italy. This version was not confirmed by the Roman and Greek inscriptions of the time: apricot is not mention there.
However, apricot is mentioned in the sources of the I century, which gives evidence that the apricot was in Italy in the I century BC, after the Roman-Parthian Wars. Apricot was called Armenian apple (lat. Mela armeniaca, lat. pomum armeniacum), which confirms the theory that the apricot was brought to Rome from Armenia. Arab geographer Ibn al-Faqih in his Book of Countries (903) mentions the Armenian apricot under its Armenian name “tsiran” and calls it the fruit of Armenia.
Famous Armenian musical instrument duduk is made of apricot wood.
8. Biblical mountain Ararat
Mount Ararat is the symbol of Armenia. It is depicted on the emblem of the country. Noah landed on Mount Ararat on his ark after the waters of the world Flood subsided And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of
