THE WONDERS OF ARTSAKH Artsakh is one of the ancient parts of the Armenian Homeland, sacred and unsurpassed in its beauty, abounding in countless wonders created by nature and man. Nourished by their native soil, endowed with the blessings of nature, throughout many millennia, the Armenians of Artsakh enriched it with countless specimens of man’s creative mind, by building their cultural heritage—deeply national in essence—that dates as far back as the times of polytheism and worship of Nature, and reaches the Christian era. Notwithstanding the invasions following one another, and the provisional domination of foreign rulers, the Armenians of Artsakh remained attached to their land, made sacred with their ancestors’ graves and relics. They have never ceased building monuments each of which has its own peculiar story. Price: $30

THE ISLAMIC MONUMENTS OF THE ARMENIAN ARCHITECTURE
OF ARTSAKH During the foreign domination of Armenia, outstanding Armenian masons were often forced into carrying out different tasks within the construction activity of this or that ruler. Applying their knowledge of architecture, as well as their creative mind and efforts, Armenian masters were compelled to build castles, palaces, mosques, mausoleums, bridges, caravanserais and residential buildings for their foreign lords, all of these structures revealing the influence of Armenian architecture, and bearing the apparent imprint of its traditional features. We come to the conclusion that all the monuments erected through the application of Armenian masters' knowledge and skills, and reflecting their perception of art, the monuments constructed in accordance with the principles and logic of Armenian architecture and building art—refined over and over in the course of many millennia—form an integral part of the national architecture of Armenia, and particularly, of Artsakh.
