Stonehenge of the Middle East

Karahouj is to the Middle East what Stonehenge is to Europe. Only Karahouj is much older having dated back to 5000BC. It is believed that this is the world's first observatory. Karahouj consists of over a hundred stones and each stone has a smooth angled hole about 4 to 5cm in diameter that point to different spots of the Horizon and space. Karahouj is currently located in Armenia.

WTF iran? hahaah iran is fucking middle eastern have no part in Caucasus, dont put negers to Caucasus please.

Armenia is in Caucasus ok but not all of armenia. maybe 80% precent. In Caucasus armenia is only country that located whole in asia other 2 countrys located both in Europe and asia but exampel u armenians have more european culture then Georgians and We Azeris.

[ArMeNiAnGuY101]

All those regions overlap each other......

[AzerbayjanTURK]

Why armenians can't accept that armenia located in middle east:d. There is 3 land In Caucasus one of them (armenia) located in middle east to of them (Georgia and Azerbaijan) located allmost in East Europe.

[ArMeNiAnGuY101]

Azerbaijan and Georgia only have 2-3% of their land in Europe but all 3 of us our considered part of Europe because of our governments.

Yea, it's unbelievably beautiful. If you wanted to go ahead with that history channel thing: I can type up a letter, then we can try and gather as many people to "sign" it, by putting their names on it, and then I can email/post it to them.

[ArMeNiAnGuY101]

Sure, I could type the letter if you want based on the article I read, but seeing as how you've been there you could write it. So should we do it now or wait for more research to be done?

Because there is no Caucasus Mountian in armenia there is no great Caucasus Mountian in armenia how armenia became as Caucasus land? :d. Because armenia is soo close to Azerbaijan and georgia they put armenia to Caucasus. U have noting like Caucasus u are Anatolian and middle eastern.

Show me the article, if it's on the internet. I'll write it soon. If this works, they'd be able to fund the Armenians to do the research anyway.

[ArmenianPatriot]

There was a slab of rock they had found, from 8000 years ago. On this rock, there was the following drawing. A man; a woman; the woman was reaching to a tree, grabbing a fruit; next to them was a big snake. How interesting is that? the story of Adam and Eve, 6000 or more years before the bible was written. It's not published -I think they wanted more funding so they could find out more about it, and then make it completely public.

[ArmenianPatriot]

When I was there, at Karahunge, we talked to the guide there. There was SOOO many interesting stuff.

[ArmenianPatriot]

500 Hayeren barrer?

[ArmenianPatriot]

They can't afford it at the moment, it's as simple as that. They helicopter guys (I think it's the army) charge thousands of dollars for an hour.
