Book excerpt: The Armenian text of Geography according to Ptolemy, which has recently been attributed to the churchman, Ananias of Shirak, is a sentinel work from Armenian antiquity. It remains out primary authority on both the Armenian geo-political worldview, and also the historical geography of the middle-east in general.
