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

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.
