    The Institute of Ancient Manusripts (Matenadaran) has opened an
    exhibition of manuscripts Armenian refugees saved during the Armenian
    Genocide in Ottoman Turkey.

    The manuscripts were saved from Taron (the MuÅ~_ Province of modern
    Turkey) Lim Island, Aghtamar Island, Ktuts Island, Van church and
    Varagavank.

    The clou of the exhibition is Toros Roslin's Zeytun Gospel of 1256.

    Among the exhibits is also the Cilician Gospel.

    "These are the treasures of world literary art. Six exhibitions halls
    will host exhibition, and exhibits will be changed throughout the
    year," Director of Matenadaran Hrachya Tamrazyan told Tert.am.

    The exhibition has been organized as part of commemorations of the
    Armenian Genocide. The participants in the media forum 'At the foot
    of Ararat' were the first visitors to the exhibition.
