Historical overview

By the end of the 19th century, the complex was completely underground, covered with trees and shrubs. There was seen only one khachkar, which became a place of pilgrimage. One of the villagers decided to build a chapel here, while digging the foundation, the church and the narthex were opened (Leo 1985, 28-29, Barkhutaryants 1895, 91). Two khachkars were also unearthed with very remarkable inscriptions (according to Barkhudaryants, both inscriptions were engraved on the same obelisk, Barkhutaryan 1895, 91). One of them says։ “St. Petros: I erected this cross for the salvation of my soul and my parents. Now, who worships this holy sign, remember me in your prayers and let God remember you: in the year of 997”. The second inscription is as follows: “St. Poghos: in the years of the pious and spiritual lord – Bishop Hovhannes of Amaras, and the lord of the state, Gagik – Prince of Princes of Aghvank, I – Father Kirakos, the leader of the holy covenant, the cousin of Kokona…” (Barkhutariants 1895, 91, cf. Leo 1985, 29).

These important inscriptions provide evidence that the monastic complex already existed in the late 10th century, that it was part of the Amaras Diocese and politically was within the state of the Prince of Princes of Aghvank or, according to other sources, King Gagik (cf. CAI 5, 173, Hakobyan 2020, 242-243). It should be noted that Artsakh and Utik, which were annexed by the Sasanian court to the kingdom and the church of Caucasian Albania in the 5th century, were later also called Aghvank, that is, in this case it is not Caucasian Albania or Albania proper situated north of the Kur, but Artsakh – here, the kingdom/principality of Southern Artsakh or Gorozu. Unfortunately, the khachkars (or the khachkar) were no longer in situ at the beginning of this century. It is possible that they were covered again with a layer of soil and vegetation.

Architectural-compositional description

Regardless of the importance of the monastery, especially when we consider the rich inscriptional material (there are about a dozen of them, they refer to the 10th-13th centuries, Barkhudaryants published six of them, see Barkhutariants 1895, 90-91), during the years of independence it has not been particularly examined, measured or cleaned. According to the available data, the monastery consists of two groups of church structures. The southern group includes two church-chapels (Figs. 1, 2), the northern group (Fig. 3), which is included in the wall (Fig. 4), consists of a church and a narthex. It was opened at the end of the 19th century, from where the abovementioned inscriptions are known. All the structures are vaulted halls, built of large rough stones and lime mortar. About a dozen khachkars and sculpted fragments belonging to the 10th-13th centuries have been preserved in the area of the monument (5).

Պատմական ակնարկ

Կամուրջն իրար է կապում գյուղի երկու հիմնական թաղամասերը: Կամրջի անմիջական հարևանությամբ գտնվում է  Շենին աղբյուրը։

Կամրջի՝ գետի հոսքն ընդդեմ ճակատին ագուցված շինարարական արձանագրության համաձայն կամուրջը և աղբյուրը կառուցվել են 1869 թվականին․ «Այս աղբուրս եւ կարմունճս /յիշա/տակ է ծնողաց / մերոց, Դաւիթ/իս եւ Գրիգորիս / Ասրիեան, 1869 ամի» (նկ․ 3) (Կարապետյան 2009, 114)։

Ճարտարապետական-հորինվածքային քննություն

Միաթռիչք կամուրջ է, կառուցված կոպտատաշ քարերով և կրաշաղախով։ Կամարների քարերը սրբատաշ են (նկ․ 4)։

Շինարարական հիմնական արձանագրությունից բացի պահպանվել են նաև ևս երկու արձանագրություններ, որոցնում ընթեռնելի են «Գրիգոր Ասրիյան, շինեցի ուստա, Դավիթ», ( նկ․ 5) (Կարապետյան 2009, 114 )։

Խորհրդային տարիներին կամուրջն ենթարկվել է վերակառուցման և հարմարեցվել ժամանակակից տրանսպորտային միջոցների համար երթևեկությանը։

Տեղադրություն

Վանքը գտնվում է Արցախի Հանրապետության Նոր Շահումյանի շրջանի (Քարվաճառի շրջան) Եղեգնուտ գյուղից 2.4 կմ հյուսիս-արևմուտք՝ Լև գետին աջից միախառնվող վտակի անտառածածկ և խոնավ ձորում: Վանքը գտնվում է ծովի մակերևույթից 1660 մետր բարձրության վրա (Կարապետյան 2019, 248): Այժմ օկուպացված է Ադրբեջանի կողմից:

Պատմական ակնարկ

Ըստ հուշարձանագետ Սամվել Կարապետյանի՝ Եղեգնուտ գյուղի մոտ գտնվող վանքի ավերակները պատկանում են Փիլիփոս կաթողիկոսի կողմից 1647 թվականին հրապարակած կոնդակում հիշատակվող և երկար ժամանակ անորոշ տեղադրություն ունեցող Ծմակա անապատին (Կարապետյան 2019, 248):

Ճարտարապետա-հորինվածքային նկարագրություն

Վանքը բաղկացած է գրեթե միայն հյուսիսային կեսով դեռևս կանգուն միանավ, թաղածածկ հորինվածքով մեկ եկեղեցուց և նրան արևմտյան կողմից կցված պարզ հատակագծով գավթից (նկ. 1): Գավթի մուտքը հարավային կողմից է, եկեղեցունը՝ արևմտյան (նկ. 2): Եկեղեցին կիսաբոլորակ խորանի երկու կողմերում ունի ուղղանկյուն հատակագծով մեկական ավանդատուն (նկ. 3) (Կարապետյան 2019, 249-250):

Թե' եկեղեցին և թե' մատուռը կառուցված են անմշակ քարերով, կրաշաղախով (նկ. 4, 5):   Եկեղեցին ներքուստ եղել է սվաղված:

Исторический обзор

Мост связывает два основных квартала села. В непосредственной близости от моста находится родник Шенин. На потокопротивном фасаде моста имеется строительная надпись, согласно которой мост и родник были построены в 1869-ом году: «Эти родник и мост в память родителей наших, Давида и Григора Асрянов, 1869-ый год» (рис. 3) (Карапетян 2009, 114).

Архитектурно-композиционный анализ

Мост однопролетный, сооружен из груботесаных камней на известковом растворе, арки - из чистотесанных камней (рис. 4). Помимо строительной надписи сохранились еще две, из которых распознаваемы следующие слова: «Григор Асрян... Построил мастер... Давид» (рис. 5) (Карапетян 2009, 114).

В советский период мост был перестроен и приспособлен под использование  современными транспортными средствами.

Architectural-compositional examination

The church is a single-nave hall with a rectangular plan, it has a semicircular apse on the eastern side (Fig. 3). The roof used to be in the form of a cylindrical vault, now it has collapsed. It is built of large local raw river stone, rock stone and lime mortar. The sole entrance opens from the south (Fig. 4), the three small windows from the east, south and west. The entrance is built of large hewn stones, has a remarkable design. The edges and the front arch are lined with successive black and yellowish stones, which conveys a certain vibrancy to the structure. The black wide lintel ends with a very narrow arcuate yellow slab, on which it is written in black paint: “I – Mkhitar, wrote” (Fig. 5). Inside, a baptismal font with an arrow-shaped arch is inbuilt in the northern wall (Fig. 6). The church is 12 meters long, 7,90 meters wide and 5,5 meters high.

Judging by the structure and design of the portal, the church was built in the 17th century.

Traces of cells, gravestones, on one of which there is an inscription (Fig. 7) and a simple khachkar have been preserved in the area. It is made of limestone, stands out with a deeply carved wide-winged large cross and is dated to the 10th-11th centuries (Fig. 8). To the north-east of the church there is an underground mausoleum, 4 meters wide and 4 meters long. The mausoleum is vaulted inwardly, covered with soil on the outside (Figs. 9, 10). There is an uninscribed gravestone inside. It probably belongs to an important person, since according to M. Barkhudaryan, “the grave is a great place of pilgrimage” (Barkhutaryants 1895, 43).

The condition before, during and after the war

St. Lusavorich Church was in a poor condition, the vaulted roof and part of the south-eastern wall were fully pulled down (Figs. 11, 12).

There is no information about the condition of the church during the 44-day war and in the subsequent period.

Монастырь «Пустынь Цмака» в Ехегнуте

Локализация

Монастырь находится  в 2.4 км к северо-западу от села Ехегнут Нор-Шаумянского (Карвачарского) района республики Арцах, во влажном лесистом овраге притока, справа впадающего в реку Лев. Памятник расположен на высоте 1660 метров над уровнем моря (Карапетян 2019, 248). Территория ныне оккупирована Азербайджаном.

Исторический очерк

Согласно исследователю памятников Самвелу Карапетяну, руины монастыря, которые находятся рядом с селом Ехегнут, принадлежат Пустыни Цмака, о которой упоминалось в кондаке, опубликованном в 1647 году католикосом Пилипосом и местонахождение которой долгое время оставалось неизвестным (Карапетян 2019, 248).

Архитектурно-композиционный анализ

Монастырь в основном состоит из одной однонефной сводчатой церкви, от которой осталась лишь северная половина, и пристроенным к ней с ее западной части простым в плане притвором (рис. 1). Вход в притвор расположен в южной стороне, а церкви – с западной (рис. 2). В церкви имеется две ризницы, расположенные по обе стороны полукруглой абсидной части (рис. 3) (Карапетян 2019, 249-250).

И церковь, и часовня построены из необработанных камней на известковом растворе (рис. 4, 5). Внутри церковь была покрыта штукатуркой.

Памятник расположен на высоте 1660 метров над уровнем моря (Карапетян 2019, 248). Территория ныне оккупирована Азербайджаном. Исторический очерк Согласно исследователю памятников Самвелу Карапетяну, руины монастыря, которые находятся рядом с селом Ехегнут, принадлежат Пустыни Цмака, о которой упоминалось в кондаке, опубликованном в 1647 году католикосом Пилипосом и местонахождение которой долгое время оставалось неизвестным (Карапетян 2019, 248).

Historical overview

The bridge connects the two main districts of the village. The Shenin spring is located in the immediate vicinity of the bridge.

According to the building inscription embedded onto the downstream-looking facade of the bridge, the bridge and the spring were built in 1869: “This spring and bridge are in memory of our parents, David and Grigor Asriyan, 1869” (Fig. 3) (Karapetyan 2009, 114).

Architectural-compositional examination

It is a single-span bridge, built of rough stones and lime mortar. The stones of the arches are hewn (Fig. 4).

In addition to the main building inscription, two other inscriptions have been preserved, too, in which it is readable: “Grigor Asriyan… I – usta (master) built…” and “…Shati, Davit…”(Fig. 5) (Karapetyan 2009, 114).

During the Soviet era, the bridge was rebuilt and adapted for the traffic of modern vehicles.

Historical overview

According to monument expert Samvel Karapetyan, the ruins of the monastery near Yeghegnut village belong to Tsmaka Anapat (in Arm.: hermitage of deepwoods) mentioned by Catholicos Philippos in a kondak publicized in 1647 and which for a long time had an uncertain location (Karapetyan 2019, 248).

Architectural-compositional description

The monastery consists of a sole single nave vaulted church standing almost only in the northern half and a simple-plan narthex attached to it from the west (Fig. 1). The entrance to the narthex is from the south and to the church from the west (Fig. 2).

The church has one vestry with rectangular plan on both sides of the semicircular altar (Fig. 3) (Karapetyan 2019, 249-250).

Both the church and the chapel are built of rough stones and lime mortar (Figs. 4, 5). The church used to be internally plastered.
