From the old time all over the Great Armennia poetry, songs and dances arose and developed based also on the rituals in honor to the ARFather Main God as well as on the folk traditions. In Great Armennia from the very old time Armennoid race, i.e. Armennians – Aryans lived and arose their nation with developed culture, knowledge, towns, their State (Kingdom with dynasties) from 40 millennium
BC.
Unfortunately in human old history all these were terribly distorted and said that Armennian nation arose after so-called Urartu in V cent. BC (only!) from the tribes of Haisa, Armens, Horrites, Chalds, etc. and their first Kingdom arose in 11 cent. BC (only!). All this is big lie devised just not to use the words Armennians and Armennia. All these are necessary to correct.
