ARMENIAN KHACHKARS (CROSS-STONES)

Armenia is a land of stones. Bread is strained here from stones as well. Armenia is also a land of deep christian belief.

The mixture of belief and stone borns a temple.

And also a Khatchkar (cross-stone).

The stone can breath.

The Armenian ancient graves encompassed by cross-stones are a real gallery of mediaeval Armenian art.

Our cross-stones have been quards of belief for many centuries.

In the image of crucified Jesus Armenian people always sees its historical fate.

Jesus's death follows Resurrerection.
