"the village of Gegharot, on the northern slope of Aragats"

Is this a real place or a location in a science fiction book?

Does the Artashat in the woods? ;')

http://www.armenianhistory.info/artashat.htm

"(Artaxata), city on Araks River in the Ararat valley, founded by Artashes in 166 BC. Strabo and Plutarch described it as a large and beautiful city, terming it as the Armenian Carthage. Until the 5th century, Artashat was the principal political and cultural center of Armenia."
