IV. A New Inscription of the Vannic King Menuas
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 March 2011
Extract
Captain L. Molyneux-Seel has been good enough to send me a photograph of a Vannic inscription discovered by him built into the wall of a ruined Armenian chapel at Baghin, north of the Murad Su. Baghin is on the right bank of the Kighi Su, which falls into the Murad Su near Kharput, and it is about 50 miles north-east of the latter city and almost due north of Palu, where an inscription of Menuas has long been known to exist (No. XXXIII of my memoir). The new inscription is important, since it not only adds a new word, litiani, “a boundary-stone,” to the Vannic vocabulary, but it also fixes the western boundary-line of the Vannic kingdom in the reign of, Menuas.
