Family tree of nations to be installed in Republic Square?April 15, 2013 - 16:21 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenian Center of PR Development has come up with an offer to install a family tree of nations the Republic Square, with Armenia to be portrayed as cradle of humankind. A picture depicting Armenia as a cradle of mankind is available in a Gospel published in London in 1634, with “Armenia” and “Ararat” words written on Noah's Ark, painted at the foot of the tree. The tree will also have a cultural and educational value, enabling those willing to contribute to the Nations Assistance Fund. The project envisages installation of directional signs in different languages to brief visitors on the role of the tree. All parties concerned are free to financially contribute to the implementation of the initiative.
