Greetings, This was a great find. It is in ordinance of the worlds very first map which is located in England. The map has the tigris river, Armenia Asyria and Mesopethania. This also clarifies that Armenians were amoung the first people on earth even before the Africans.

Turkey? do you really think that mongols who destroyed some of the worlds oldest heritages have a history as old as this? It's very sad, this site is Armenian and you must address it properley to people and nation who contributed many many things to humankind's civilization. if you search in what today call's it self Turkey, you may find that it has nothing on its own, all of the wonderfull sites belong to Armenians, Greeks, Asurians, Urartu's and etc. i hope they will correct the title no one can stole other nations heritage and culture this easily as Turks are trying to do . . .

It is sad that the article talks about the "site in Turkey". 6000 years ago there was no Turkey. 600 years ago there was no Turkey. This site is ARMENIAN. Just another example of how history is being rewritten! It's a shame. At least the Western scientific world should be more specific to acknowledge the fact that Urfa was the creddle of the Armenian civilization. Too sad, that's all.
