"This is a unique book dedicated to the historical ties between the two ancient peoples. By taking a critical approach and skillfully combining the often not-so-rich and precise information from multilingual historical sources, the authors have reconstructed and rediscovered the various relations between the Armenian and Jewish peoples from biblical times to the 14th-15th centuries, thereby providing the scholarly community and the general public with a comprehensive and high-level academic study." -- Vahan Ter-Ghevondian, Director of the "Matenadaran" Institute of Ancient Manuscripts"This long-awaited book fills a gap in our understanding of Armenian history. Stone and Topchyan are to be commended for undertaking such an innovative project: by assembling and analyzing in a comprehensive way literary, epigraphical and archeological sources, they offer a new picture of the presence of Jews in ancient and medieval Armenia, which challenges traditional views. This important book is definitely required reading for anyone who is interested in the history of Armenian-Jewish contacts." -- Valentina Calzolari, Professor in Armenian Studies, University of Geneva"This is a significant work for those interested in both Jewish and Armenian history, as well as the entire Near East and the Caucasus during ancient and medieval times. While very detailed and chock full of information, the book tells a compelling and balanced story. We learn of the many interrelated aspects of Armenian and Jewish history in pre-modern periods - including clear evidence for long-thriving Jewish communities in historic Armenia." -- Reuven Amitai, Eliyahu Elath Professor of Middle Eastern History at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, "This is a unique book dedicated to the historical ties between the two ancient peoples.

Synopsis
This is the first book on the history of the Jews in ancient and medieval Armenia. Drawing on literary, epigraphical and archaeological sources, the book assembles and analyses the information available on this community from earliest times to the fourteenth century. It takes account of many types of evidence bearing on its history including documents from the Cairo Geniza, newly uncovered inscriptions, medieval itineraria, and diplomatica. This book shows that the communis opinio that there were few if any Jews in ancient and medieval Armenia, must now be discarded., It was once common consensus that there was no significant Jewish community in ancient and medieval Armenia. The discovery and excavation (1997-2002) of a Jewish cemetery of the thirteenth-fourteenth centuries in southern Armenia substantially changed this picture. In this volume, Stone and Topchyan assemble evidence about the Jews of Armenia from earliest times to the fourteenth century. Based on research of the Greco-Roman period, the authors are able to draw new conclusions about the transfer of Jews--including the High Priest Hyrcanus--from the north of Palestine and other countries to Armenia by King Tigran the Great in the first century BCE. The fact that descendants of King Herod ruled in Armenia in Roman times and that some noble Armenian families may have had Jewish origin is discussed. The much-debated identification of the "Mountains of Ararat" of Noah's Ark fame as well as ancient biblical and other references to Ararat and the Caucasus are re-assessed, and new evidence is adduced that challenges the scientific consensus. The role of Jews during the Seljuk, Mongol, and later times is also presented, from surviving sources in Armenian, Arabic, Hebrew, and others. The volume also includes studies of medieval Jewish sources on Armenia and the Armenians and of communication between Armenia and the Holy Land. Documents from the Cairo Geniza, newly uncovered inscriptions, medieval itineraria, and diplomatica also throw light on Armenia in the context of the Turkic Khazar kingdom, which converted to Judaism in the latter part of the first century CE. It responds both to new archeological discoveries in Armenia and to the growing interest in the history of the region that extends north from the Euphrates and into the Caucasus., It was once common consensus that there was no significant Jewish community in ancient and medieval Armenia.
