YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 1, ARMENPRESS. As a result of the cooperation between the Armenian-German program of researches of the ancient Armenian petrograths an internet website will be created dedicated all the Armenian petroglyths. In a conversation with "Armenpress" the Minister of Culture of the Republic of Armenia Hasmik Poghosyan stated that the Armenian petroglyths need a deep and serious observation. Poghosyan said: "We must recruit all what we have by the assistance of the experts from Germany. They encouraged us to crate a granary, as the Armenian petroglyths are unique and will be included in the list of UNESCO world heritage."
She also added that the German experts have already introduced a huge written document, where everything is recorded and a large amount of information regarding the petroglyths is involved there. The minister said: "The works will continue for another year, after which it will become clear what we have done and what is still to be done. The matter is not merely about the list of UNESCO world heritage, but also the making it known to the world despite the inclusion in the list of UNESCO world heritage." The necessary mechanisms of their preservation also will be developed.
The Armenian-German program of research of the petroglyths in Jermuk and Sisian under the leadership of Professor Harold Miller and the Director of the Institute of Archeology and Demography of the National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Armenia Pavel Avetisyan kicked off in 2011.
