    Armenians are dealt with falsification of history

    International conference entitled "Restoration of archeological and
    historical monuments" is held in Armenia. The arrangement is organized
    by the Embassy of Italy to Yerevan and the Center for Armenian Culture
    Studies situated in Milan.

    Speaking at the conference Marco Clemente, the Ambassador of Italy to
    Armenia informed that an interest of the official Rome to historical
    monuments of Armenia rides, first of all, on rich cultural heritage
    of this state: "Italy will make all efforts to assist Armenia to
    protect historical and cultural monument further."

    Gadik Guljian, deputy Minister of Culture of Armenia said that the
    conference will focus on rehabilitation of so called Armenian fresco,
    as "Italian masters are well-experienced in this field."

    Then Italian and Armenian historians will conduct meetings in Ambert,
    Kobairo, Zvartnos and Dashtadem. The specialists of Milan Architecture
    University will attend the conference which to last until 15 September.

    It is interesting that holding such arrangement Armenia aims not
    to discuss "the issues of restoration of historical and cultural
    monuments of the country and their protection." Khrair Tovmasian,
    the professor of the Institute of History and Archeology of Armenian
    Academy of Sciences informed about true intention of Armenians
    to Spriuk agency: "It is necessary to carry our archeological
    excavations in the villages of Nagorno-Garabagh hitherto regarding
    as Azerbaijanian, and to find there the oldest Armenian historical
    monuments and remains of settlements. In this way, we can prove that
    these lands belong not to Azerbaijan, but Armenia."

    It is known that recently the archeologist Justo Trayna, the professor
    of Lecce University, Italy participated in archeological dig carried
    out in Aghdam.

    Reportedly, the excavations aim to "discover the remains of four
    cities which were constructed by the ruler of the Great Armenia the
    Great Tigran in 95-55 years B.C."

    According to Hamlet Petrosian, doctor of historical sciences, the
    discovery in the archeological dig carried out three kilometers away
    from Aghdam have special importance for world epigraphy. "On the
    walls of one of the discovered caves there were written the name of
    Jesus in Greece. I think that this inscription belongs to VI. Italian
    professor Justo Trayna will help his Armenian colleagues to define to
    what ethnic community it belongs," said H. Petrosian. According to him,
    the buildings to which construction attached importance the ancestry of
    Garabagh Armenians, are worthy of being included to worldwide manuals
    of history as an example of aesthetic beauty and solidity. According
    to H. Petrosian, so called Tigranakert complex situated near to Aghdam
    turns out to be similar to remains of habitats of people in Artashat
    and Armavir regions of Armenia discovered in 2004.

    Recently Armenian Institute of History and Archeology made statement
    implying that "the facts proving that the Shusha citadel had been
    constructed by Armenians were discovered." "The group led by the
    archeologist Shushanik Gambarsumian discovered the inscription on
    the walls of the citadel, in which was written the name of Tigran
    II who ordered to construct this building in Armenian. In addition,
    from the point of architecture and construction Shusha citadel is
    one of the cultural monuments of Armenia," said the statement.
