1 dic 1441 anni - Catholicos returns to Echmiadzin.

Descrizione:

Political circumstances had compelled the catholicosate to move with the moving fortunes of the Armenian people: thus although established in Echmiadzin in 301, it had moved to Dvin in 485, to Aghtamar in 927, to Argina (near Ani) in 947, to Ani itself in 992. Thence, the ecclesiastical office had moved to Cilicia. By the time when the Catholicos moved back to Echmiadzin in 1441, all that remained was the clergy - often mercilessly harassed - and the people.
