These archaic signs are from Syunik province and Geghama Mountain range in Armenia. Some of them are over 5000 years old.

Very cool - nicely rendered.
Geghama moutains, eh? I've been to Armenia five times now, but there's always more to see.

Yes, I think finally they are being more and more photographed, maybe more studied. But of course this nshana'gir is also inside MMS. The symbols are very archaic.

Lovely! Some of these do resemble other alchemical symbols (I'm lookin' at you, Mercury!)
