# Artaxias or Artašēs I: (in Armenian Արտաշես Ա) is a king of Armenia who reigned from 190/189 to 159 BC.
He is traditionally considered the founder of the Artaxiad dynasty. # Abgar V Bar Ma'Nu or Abgar Oukhama: is a king of Osroene who reigns in Edessa for two periods, first from 7 BC. AD to 4 BC. AD, when he was replaced by his brother Ma'Nu IV Bar Ma'Nu.
He regains the throne of Edessa and reigns again until his death in c. Bagratids.
King of Armenia from 912 to 928 and son of Smbat Iᵉʳ the Martyr, King of Armenia.
# Haïk in Armenian: Հայկ, also called Haik, Hayk or Haig, and also nicknamed Haïk Nahapet (in Armenian: Հայկ Նահապետ) (often represented with a bow): He is the first legendary king of Armenian mythology and is therefore the patriarch and ancestor of all Armenians, and the founder of the Haikid dynasty that bears his name.
According to legend, he took 300 people with him out of Babylon, pursued by his lord, Bel. As a result, a great battle took place, during which Hayk's arrow found its target, killing Bel, and thus ushering in a new era. In one of the versions of the Armenian calendar the new era begins on this date, which would correspond to August 11, 2492 BC.
The year 2492 BC, the date of this event, was calculated in modern times.
. The harmonious and thin sides in engravings present a scene of a shepherd and his sheep, wreaths of flowers, and a scene representing two men facing each other passing a basin.
