ArmInfo. On March 13, the Russian House in Yerevan hosted a presentation of the artistic comic book for young compatriots title "7 stones. Armenia through the centuries". The project was the result of the nostalgia of retired Armenian police colonel and head of the public organization "The Path of Kindness" Alexander Berezovsky. Although he was born on the Spitsbergen archipelago, he grew up in Yerevan. In his memories, yard games were more than just fan activities, they were a way to communicate with each other. As Alexander Berezovsky shared, he decided to take the opportunity to recall the ancient Armenian game "7 stones".
During the presentation, Vadim Fefilov, the director of the Russian House in Armenia, emphasized the importance of supporting initiative that introduce young people to common history in an engaging way. He noted that this wasn't the first comic book of this format: a comic book about the adventures of Russian diplomat Alexander Griboyedov had already been created. In turn, Victoria Arakelova, a professor at the Institute of Oriental Studies at the Russian-Armenian University, expressed hope that after reading the comic book, children would develop a greater interest in history.
"7 Stones. Armenia through the Ages" is an artistic comic book created for young Russian compatriots. It is a continuation of a comic book series, with the first one dedicated to the great diplomat Alexander Griboyedov. This time, professionals from Russia and Armenia collaborated on the project, blending the talents of both cultures.
