Director of the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnography of the Armenian National Academy of Sciences Pavel Avetisyan and Professor of the California University Grigor Arshyan today presented the old and new findings in Armenia, some of which were widely covered by world media.
According to Pavel Avetisyan, the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnography conducts 18-25 field researches in Armenia and Artsakh annually. One of the most interesting items found in Armenia was the 5,500-year-old leather shoe discovered in a cave in Areni.
"Any discovery is of great value. The peculiarity of this one was that the oldest shoe ever found was very well preserved," Pavel Avetisyan said, assuring that there would be more of such sensational discoveries in the future.
