Thanks for posting this.

I have the red and white flag of Ani as my wallpaper at work.
It’s a poignant and grim reminder that even a city of 1000 churches can be reduced to nothing by its enemies.

Fair warning for America, unfortunately.

Sounds like it was a huge place, and based on the current surroundings, probably mostly of masonry construction.
