The Relief on the Door of the Msho Arakelots Monastery (1134) as a Source for Studying Arms and Armour of Medieval Armenian Warriors

Dmytro Dymydyuk · 2019

Catalogue summary

The Msho Arakelots relief is read for a mace, cross-guarded sword, trumpet, shield, stirrups, and scabbard chape, then compared with Byzantine, Muslim, and Armenian evidence.

Why this matters

Those carved details give medieval Armenian military history material evidence that is not dependent on East-Roman narratives alone.
