On the 4th Anniversary of the Historic Julfa Cemetery Destruction

As upcoming December 15th marks the 4th anniversary of the final
destruction of historic Armenia’s largest medieval cemetery – Djulfa –
a project committed to documenting the vandalism seeks poetry
commemorating the cultural loss. Submissions can be made to
contact@djulfa.org by December 20, 2009.

The sacred stones of Djulfa, erased to the ground by the Azeri
authorities in Nakhichevan, are physically gone. But their haunting
story is not forgotten. Visit for the chilling account
of Djulfa’s deliberate destruction, including a video, photographs and
a research section for additional information.
