How do you know that there was no Turkish race in those times?? Can you prove that??

I read books.

Subjective books that are terribly misslanted. You an your people believe the lies your ancestors fabricated for one goal.....MONEY.

The first mention of the term "Turk" applied to a known Turkic group, was in reference to the Gokturks in the 6th century. A letter by the Chinese Emperor written to the Göktürk Khan named Isbara in 585 described him as "the Great Turk Khan"

Turks in 6th century and the Armenians??

Archaeologists refer to the Shulaveri-Shomu culture of the central Transcaucasus region, including what is now Armenia, as the earliest known prehistoric culture in the area, carbon-dated to roughly 6000 - 4000 BC. Although a recently discovered tomb has been dated to 9000 BC. Another early culture has been named the Kura-Araxes culture - assigned to the period (4000 - 2200 BC), and later developing into the Trialeti culture (2200 - 1500 BC.)

Compare the numbers

Hmmmm, I guess the Turks were created via immaculate conception in the 6th century.

The Kingdom of Urartu or Van flourished in the Caucasus and eastern Asia Minor between ca. 800 BC and 600 BC. According to Strabo (XI, XIV, 5), Armeno-Phrygians conquered Carenitida (the region of the upper flow of the Euphrates) from the Chalybes, probably around 600 BC. The Armenians subsequently moved to the territory of the failing kingdom of Urartu. In the 5th century BC, when both Armenians and Phrygians served under Xerxes, Herodotus tells us that their costume and equipment was still identical, and the Armenians were considered colonists of the Phrygians.

Armenian Kingdom
After the destruction of the Seleucid Empire, the first Armenian state was founded in 190 BC. At its zenith, from 95 to 66 BC, Armenia extended its rule over parts of Caucasus and the area that is now eastern Turkey, Syria and Lebanon. For a time, Armenia was one of the most powerful states in the Roman East. It came under Roman control in 66 BC and the Armenian People adopted a Western political, philosophical, and religious orientation.

Ok, thanx for your contribution to my early history knowladge. If you say that this land was mine BC then everybody would do the same which would result in the destruction of Earth by nuclear and normal wars!!! Let's say after China becomes so powerful it says, india was mine BC or in the early stages of history and now I am going to take that would be just disastrous, so that is no excuse yerevan sorry!!

The only reason I was talking about history is because your friend there suggested that Russians gave us the land what is present day Armenia, and I wanted to prove him wrong. We owned the land for thousands of years. That was my point.

Wow! An Armenian state that ruled for 119 years. Amazing staying power.
