Constant Reader" writes:
Il nave been a reader OF YOUR
column ever since 1t started. 7 wish
you would tell about the Armenian
people. Where did they originate?
Are they of the same origin rs the
Chlnese? What is their religion?"
The last question is perhaps the
most simple to answer. The Armen-
lans are claSsed as a Christian peo-
pie. Ihey were converted to the
christian faith about 1,6OO years
ago. Most OF them belong to the
armenian Church, which is neither
Greek Catholic nor Roman Catholic
The homeland of the Armenians
is around the eastern end of pres
ent-day Turkey. The Armenian re-
public is part of the Soviet Union
and is between the Caspian and
Black Seas. For some distance it
borders on Turkey, and it also
touches Iran, or Persia.
There are about 100000 people
IN the Armenian republic, but nearly
the same number of Armenians live
eAaS 32AAl4to VI bllc COUNTY,.
Many make their homes in Eastern
Turkey and in Iran. In addition,
Armenian merchants and others
have settled in various countries of
Europe, and in the United States.
Armenia has longer history than
either Russia or Turkey. We hear of
the land In records of $500 years
ago.
The Armenians are believed to be
OF mixed stock. The first people in
the land seem to have been related
to the ancient Hittites. Later came
invaders who are described as In
o-Europeans from the Caucasus
Mountains. These invaders married
with the natives, and thus the Ar
menlan nation was built up.
The Armenians are not of the
same origin as the Chinese. A mix
ture of Mongolian stock is said to
have taken place long ago, but in the
main the Armenians belong to the
white race.
