By Grigor Grigoryan


The monograph “Early Medieval Four-Sided Stelae in Armenia” is the first complex study where 252 four-sided stelae from Armenia, Western Armenia (Turkey), Georgia and Nagorny Karabagh have been brought together. With the 89 stelae published so far, 163 more four-sided stelae have been put into scientific circulation for the first time: among the are the 26 stelae unknown so far and discovered by the author. The arguments and solutions of theoretical, factual and applied matters, the discussion and examination of view-points in the specialized literature and the rich factual material put into scientific circulation are the indisputable merits of this work.
