The Ancient Observatory Karahunj Dug Up And Exposed For Two Years

While everyone was busy with politics, the Karahunj Ancient Observatory spent two winters with huge trenches that Ashot Piliposyan had left behind in violation of many laws and an International Convention. These pits and large holes make the position of megaliths in the structure unstable.

Any event in Karahunj is like dances around a patient’s bed. Many complaints remain unanswered. However, our struggle will continue until the structure is restored and closed for any excavations.

Recently, we sent yet another letter to the Assistant Minister of Education and Science of the Republic of Armenia Mrs. Khachatryan (presented below!).
