Recent discoveries made in the Armenian Highland or Plateau by a
number of European archaeological teams [published in the August 2000 issue of
the German scientific magazine Bild Der Wissenschaft] showed that
architectural structures, including such advanced complex manifestations such as
temples and palaces can be traced to circa 9, 000 BC -- around 11,000 years ago!
-- before
the common era. The article in the prestigious scientific magazine entitled
6,000 Years before the Pyramids! describes in detail the world oldest
temple located in Armenia and dated to circa 9,000 BC -- or 11,000 years ago! In
addition to these very important finds, the recent sensational discovery of the Temple City in
the Aragatsotn Marz, by a team of Armenian archaeologist from the Academy of
Sciences was astounding.

The Temple City covers dozens of acres of land
and the archaeologists have estimated that it will take about 30 years to fully
excavate the whole complex. These promising new discoveries perhaps surpass the
historic findings of Metsamor (that among other important finds included one of
the earliest if not the earliest metal smelting foundries of the ancient world).
In the November 2003 issue, the prestigious scientific magazine Nature
published an article by
scholars Dr. Russell D. Gray and Dr. Quentin D. Atkinson [11.27.2003] verifying
the origin (13 years after the publication by the Scientific American of
Indo-Europeanist linguists -- Dr. Vyacheslav Ivanov's and Dr. Thomas
Gamkrelidze's detailed work on the origins of The Indo-European Language and
the Indo-Europeans firmly established that Armenia is in fact the
Indo-European Homeland.
