Dr. Hratch Tchilingirian, Oxford
EVN Report / MassisPost/ Aravot(22 November 2020)—Long before the start of the armed conflict in Karabakh, the “authentication” of the history of the region had become the scholarly battleground of historians, political scientists, archaeologists, researchers and bureaucrats.

Grigoris, il nipote di san Gregorio, fu nominato capo della Chiesa albanese intorno al 330 d.C. Fu martirizzato nel 338 mentre evangelizzava la regione a nordest del paese, nei pressi di Derbend (l’attuale Daghestan). Il suo corpo fu traslato in Artsakh e sepolto in una
