Armeno-Phrygian
Aramu Muru – Peru
Haldi’s Door/ Mher’s Door (Van, Armenia) & Doorway of Aramu Muru (Peru).
In Behistun inscriptions Darius The Great calls himself a “son of Ahura Mazda” and an Armenian King Arkha a “Son of Haldi”. Haldi is a supreme God of Armenian Pantheon of Van period (Araratian-Urartian).
Daredevils of Sassoun, an Armenian heroic epic poem, was published in Constantinople (Istanbul) in 1874 under the title “David of Sasun or Mher’s Door”.
There is a conceptual link between Haldi and Mher, a connection assumed by the traditional Armenian designation for the blind rock portal at Van, which the Armenians called ‘Door of Haldi’ at period of Van Kingdom.
Mher was the son of the Legendary Armenian Hero David. While avenging his father, he was cursed and trapped inside Raven’s Rock near the ancient Armenian city of Van. Ever since that day Mher lives in that cave. The underground river Gail (Lukos) flows under the cave with a terrible rumbling. According to saga, Mher with his fiery horse must remain there, until there are justice, honesty and peace in the world. Once a year (either on the festival of Roses, originally a pagan fire and water festival, or in the night of destinies) Mher’s door is opened. Anyone near-by on that day is at danger of being trapped inside the rock as well. Someday it is believe Mher will come out of the cave, mounted on his fiery horse, to punish the enemies of his people. That will be the Day of Wrath.
Mher’s Door – Mher remains entombed in Raven’s Rock since justice still doesn’t reign over the earth.
Pictures in the first row show Haldi/Mher’s Door in Van, capital city of Kingdom of Armenia and doorway of Aramu in Peru. Aramu as we know was the first known Armenian king of Van period (Ararat-Urartu). Aram, Arame is still a popular name among Armenians.
The door in Aramu is called Hayu Marka. Armenian speakers can easily notice the word “Armenian” in Hayu and Marka as shortened from Markare -”prophet”….By this theory it can be read as “The door of Armenian prophet” or “The door of Armenian prophecy”…
First picture in the last row is the front cover of “The Door of Mher and Echoes of Van”.1916.
The last picture in my collage shows “The Midas Monument” of Asia Minor built by Phrygians who were (descendants of) Armenians and spoke Armenian dialect ( Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography (1854) William Smith, LLD, Ed. ; ( The Armenian Origin of the Etruscans by Robert Ellis, London, 1861.)
Picture in the second row is called “The Cloud People of Peru .” Pay attention at the Armenid noses of the Monument which are also found in all prehistoric archaeological sculptures of Gods, Kings, high priests, warrior lords around the world while excavated skulls indicate that main population of those countries belonged to other racial types.
Petroglyphs of Armenian Highland show that ancient Armenians knew navigation, draw boats.
Looking at Monument of Cloudy People in Peru we can understand that similarity of Armenian/Phrygian and Peru Monuments is not a coincidence. Ancient Armenians travelled to far lands and built their sites of ancestral land of Ararat.
The monuments let by Sumerians, Hittites, Assyrians, Babylonians, Phoenicians, Persians, and Indic Valley civilizations indicate the roots of these states were culturally and ethnically Armenid. Hawk nose, prominent among modern Jews, Syrians and Arabs is evidence of transfusion of Armenid genes into the Semitic races.
In Europe the Armenid type was omnipotent among the Celtic colonists of Britain and Ireland, and the Etruscans of Italy. The painted priestly heads and surviving mummies of the pharaohs and their queens, indicate that for generations Egyptian royalty belonged to the hawk-nosed Armenids.
Further away in Melanesian, Polynesian and Pacific islands, especially among the Africans of New Guinea, the salient nose is a testimony of the past presence of the Armenids. The unearthed skulls and the stone carved features of the Aztec, Inca, and Maya kings and priests are naturally Armenid.
Their supreme gods Votan, Quatzquatl, and Kukulkan are represented as bearded white men with most hawkish noses. The Mayas, especially, tried to outnose their civilizing superiors by widespread custom of wearing artificial noses and beards.
This ornamental custom was also practiced by north American ‘flat-head’ tribes of Chinook, Clatshop, and Salishan, as a distinctive mark of aristocracy. Among the Algonquin, such as the Black-feet tribe, the hawk nose was of natural birth. So was it also among the Middle American Arawaks and Caribs.
It is of great significance to note that Ptolemy’s map of “Geography of Asia Minor”,140 A.D.,lists five cities in Armenia which have their counterparts in Mayan Central America:i.e.,Chol/Cholula, Colua/Coluacan,Zuivana/Zuivan,Chalima/Colima, Zalissa/Xalisco!
A strong, hooked nose was a sign of leadership among the Romans whose many prominent men possessed such members. Then there are the beak-nosed fairy tale witches, possessors of supernatural and magical powers, who can fly, brew medicine, and have power over life and death.
This veneration of the high bridged nose has come down to our present days and has materialized in the symbol of the United States-the Uncle Sam-who is adorned with a prominent Armenid nose.
Recent findings of earliest Sumerian, Egyptian, and Assyrian remains indeed attest their Armenid-Caucasian origins. Thus, ancient monuments, skeletal remains, historic and traditional records, and modern archaeological, geological, and anthropological studies conclude that the Armenian Highland was the cradle of human civilization.
As well, the Armenian Highland was the source of a biological gene pool of a unique race whose migrations contributed greatly to the cultural evolution and genetic make-up of major European, Asian, African, and American nations.
Following the Agricultural and Metallurgical Revolution, and the opening up of the obsidian trade routes, the Armenids periodically ventured out of their Homeland in search for new farmlands and sources of metals. Whether as farmers, metal prospectors, or tradesmen, these gifted people and their progenies reached the far corners of the world mainly by peaceful penetration and rarely by military conquest.
Bronze working prospectors in search for copper and tin, slowly pushed their way into the Balkans, Danube Valley to central Europe, Denmark, and Sweden. Other moved southwards following the obsidian trade routes into Syria, Mesopotamia, Palestine and Egypt.
Wherever the Armenids migrated, they left a legacy of higher civilization and a trail of genetic racial hallmark, among the natives with whom they gradually assimilated. The impact of these culture bearing people and their civilizing influence left such a deep impression among the ancients, that a prominent, high-bridged nose became the universal sign for intelligence, nobility, and even deity.
All these doors tell one story – belief of ancient Armenians that Justice Will Prevail.
