	Ararat, the Cradle of Civilization?
		The traditional Mount Ararat, known as "Agri Dagh," is a single mountain in a vast plain in eastern Turkey; it is not a region of mountains as the Bible specifies.
		By the time of the conversion of Armenia to Christianity (fourth century) and the introduction of an alphabet, so that the Bible could be translated into Armenian (fifth century), Armenia was a semi-independent kingdom whose religious and administrative centers were concentrated in the northern part of the country.
		He was told that something is on top of this mountain, and he climbed as high as possible but was turned back by local tribesmen who said demons live on top of the mountain, and wild animals would harm him if he attempted to climb further.

		All the foreign provinces -- Egypt, Phoenicia, Chanaan, Syria, Arabia, Armenia, Media, Babylonia, and Elam -- broke away from Assyria, when the degenerate and feeble successors of the valiant Asshurbanipal proved unable to cope with the situation.
