Исторический обзор

Селище Ин Тагасер (Старый Тагасер) расположено на обоих берегах реки Парзагет и охватывает довольно большую территорию. Мост связывал две части села. Именно через него пролегала дорога между столицей меликства Дизака - Тохом и близлежащими селами, а также южными поселениями меликства, вплоть до реки Аракс. Строительная надпись, оставленная на мосту, свидетельствует о том, что он имеет отношение к деятельности известной княжеской династии Дизака.

Архитектурно-композиционный анализ

Одноарочный сводчатый мост, построенный из грубообработанного камня, арки выложены из тесаного камня. Длина моста – 7,6 м, ширина – 3 м, высота – 3 метра, ширина пролета – 3, 68м (рис. 2). На двух гладко тесаных камнях, встроенных  в левостороннюю опору потоконаправленного фасада моста, высечена пятистрочная строительная надпись (рис. 3): «Мост этот в память о Екане сыне господина / Пахтасара. Супруга Перун/ В год 1763/ Замолвите / Господи помилуй [скажите] (сравни: Карапетян 2009, 90).

Состояние до, во время и после войны

До войны мост находился в удовлетворительном сотоянии и был в использовании. В 2016 году один из камней с надписью выпал, и его положили неподалеку (рис. 4, 5). Во время войны мост не пострадал. О состоянии моста после войны информация отсутствует.

Location

The church is located in the center of Hochants village of Kashatagh region, at an altitude.

Historical overview

Hochants is one of the most famous villages of Kashatagh canton with a rich historical past. The first mention of the village as Hunchak is evidenced in the list of villages of Aghahetch canton compiled by St. Orbelyan (Orbelyan 1912, 372). The village is also mentioned at the beginning of the 17th century, when two bishops who had left the Tatev hermitage founded the Hochants hermitage in its vicinities (Davrizhetsi 1896, 260) and at the end of the 17th century, when the Armenians of Karbi village clashed with the nomadic Kurds at the very village (Zakaria 1870, 9).

The first information about the church dates back to the late 19th century, when an abandoned church in the depopulated Armenian village was used by the Kurds as a fodder store (EM 1898, 50). Back in the 60s of the last century, a slab was preserved in the western wall of the church with the following inscription: “In the name of God, I – Hekaz, gave a quarter of our own oil mill, which was mine, as a waqf to Stepanos…” (CAI 5, 194). It becomes clear from the inscription that the church is called St. Stepanos.

Architectural-compositional description

There is no exact information about the time of construction of the church. Judging by its architectural type, it was probably built in the second half of the 17th century (Fig. 1). It is a single-nave, vaulted structure built of raw stones and lime mortar. It has a main altar, a sole entrance opened from the south, windows opened in four facades that widen inwardly and a baptismal font in the northern wall, several khachkars are embedded in the walls. The external dimensions are 13.40*8.15 meters.

In the last decades of the Soviet Union, the church building served as a bakery for the village, for that purpose separate segments of the church were altered, other buildings were attached to it from the south and west (Karapetyan 2001, 164) (Fig. 2-3).

The condition before, during and after the war

The church was restored in 2019 and was completely standing before the war (4). As these areas were far from the actual hostilities, the church was not damaged as a result of the war. Nothing is known about the monument after these territories fell out of Armenian control.

Historical overview

There is no historical evidence about the monastery. According to the assumption of monument expert Samvel Karapetyan, the name of the monastery may be associated with the treatment of the disease mknatam (a fungal disease of the skin: ringworm) (Karapetyan 2001, 138).

Architectural-compositional description

The church is built of polished stones and has architectural and compositional features typical of the 12th-13th centuries. It is a single-nave vaulted building and resembles more a chapel rather than a church (Fig. 2). The only architectural decoration is the frame of the western entrance and the crown of the window (Fig. 3). The walls of the church lack any inscriptions. The roof is covered with semi-circular covering slabs.

Adjacent to the south of the chapel there is a square building made of rough stones, whose cornerstones and entrance lintel are built of hewn stones. Inwardly, the building has numerous niches (Fig. 4). Judging by its structure, it is not excluded that the building served as a scriptorium or book repository (Karapetyan 2001, 139). The entrance is from the east (Fig. 5).

The condition before and after the war

During the Soviet years, the monastery was not intentionally subjected to destruction or artificial changes, nor was it damaged during the Artsakh wars.

After the transfer of Kashatagh region to Azeri control in December 2020, changes and destruction in the area of the monument have not been documented yet, the Azerbaijani side presents it as an Albanian sanctuary and dates it to the 10th-11th cc.

Локализация

Церковь Арахиша находится в Кашатахском районе Республики Арцах (ныне под контролем Азербайджана), в  50 км севернее от Бердзора, на левобережье притока реки Хакари Шалвы, в 1.5 км южнее одноименного села (рис.1).

Здесь сохранились развалины средневекового поселения, церкви, а также следы большого кладбища, простирающегося на запад. Письменных источников о церкви нет. Судя по архитектурным особенностям, ранним хачкарам и надгробным камням 12-16 вв. (на некоторых из них имеются надписи с датой), поселение существовало на протяжении всего средневековья.

Архитектурно-композиционный анализ

Церковь (рис. 2) построена из местного необработанного камня с использованием известкового раствора. Изнутри она отштукатурена. Это – однонефная сводчатая базилика с подчеркнутой подковообразной алтарной абсидой (рис. 3).

Внешние размеры церкви - 12,30 x 5,20 м, толщина стен – 90 см (Карапетян 2000, 165). В центральной части южной стены прослеживается утолщенный горизонтальный пояс (который, видимо, проходил по всему периметру церкви), что является уникальной особенностью этой церкви. Подковообразные арки сохранившегося свода и конхи, а также подпружная арка выполнены из тесаного камня (рис.4). Учитывая подковообразные объемы церкви, вероятной ее датировкой можно считать 9-10 вв. Западная часть церкви не сохранилась, посему можем утверждать о наличии двух входов – южном и северном. Кладбище также весьма пострадало, хотя здесь сохранилось более 20 хачкаров (рис. 5) и надгробных камней, некоторые из которых носят надписи.

Состояние до, во время и после войны

Церковь Арахиша была взорвана в 1983 году (рис. 6), после этого она никаким существенным изменениям не подвергалась.

Анализ письменных источников

Исследователь С. Карапетян в своей книге «Памятники армянской культуры в зоне Нагорного Карабаха» пишет об этой церкви и надписях, однако Арахиш называет Арко Неркин (Нижний Арко) и датирует 12-13 вв. (Карапетян 2000, 164-165).
