Excerpt from the novel \u201cGevorg Marzpetuni\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Before we start talking about the traditional Armenian patriarchal family, let us find out how the Armenian traditional family was. Hayk Nahapet was the ancestor of the Armenians. He is a collective image of the patriarch of the Armenian family. He was surrounded by his sons, daughters and sons of his sons. Hayk had a special love for his ancestors and preserved the values transmitted by them. His lineage continued on a one-man-one-woman basis, and the intergenerational bond was very strong.<\/p>\n
