"Cilicia" ("Կիլիկիա") is sailing ship built by the "Ayas" Nautical research club («Այաս» ծովային հետազոտական ակումբի կողմից). 

The ship "Cilicia" was built according to samples of widely spread ships that were built in the the 13th century Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia. 

In 2004-2006 "Cilicia" traveled more than 15000 nautical miles visiting 65 ports in 25 countries.

You can visit Armenia, Lake Sevan, village Artanish to see the historical Cilicla ship's replica. In our stores you will find t-shirts where we printed the exact replica. Having the t-shit you will have the schema how to build the ship.
