Antiquities

The stones and artifacts are from Urfa

All of these stones and artifacts are from Urfa in historical Armenia. Occupied-Armenia to be more precise.

I don’t think Armenians realize how important this region was to ancient Armenians and civilization in general. I believe (for many reasons) that it was the place where the first Sumerians originated from.

It is also the home of the Prophet Abraham. Legend says that the old Armenian Church in Urfa held an Ororoc that belonged to Abraham which was passed down to the descendants of the Lost Tribes for over two thousand years.

It was eventually stolen from the Armenians along with many other ancient and important relics, artifacts, manuscripts, and gold when we were raided and invaded by Romans, Greeks, and Turks.
