A small exhibit (about a third of it is early 20th century furniture and all sorts of household items from a junk shop) and an incompetent tour guide. In her opinion, there was about nothing from Urartian Erebuni to Paskevich (I quote: "eastern type settlement" - did not receive answers to clarifying questions). And after Paskevich, there was supposedly an "Armenian region" headed by a "governor", there was no provincial center here. To a direct question about the Erivan province, I received the answer that I was confusing something. The black ceramics were aged by the guide to 15-20 thousand years - when we were surprised and pointed at the museum labels in the windows, the guide said that there was a mistake and she would tell us to fix it))). The Great Silk Road, in her opinion, was also formed in prehistoric times. But she told me about the names of the parts of the costumes and what the ornaments on prehistoric ceramics symbolized (apparently, the ancient people told her in secret).
