Ishkhanavank (princely monastery in
Armenian) has Armenian inscriptions of Georgian language; which proves that indeed Armenians lived there. The construction of Oshki was led by Gregory Oshketsi ( Oshket"si" and Gregor being a very typical Armenian name and ending as well. Also names ending with ouni and ian).

Tao used to be
Armenian until the eight century, but in the second half of the tenth century, when the monastery of Oshki was built, is was firmly in the hands of the Georgian Bagrationi. Please stick to the facts. Armenia is extremely rich in historical monuments from the middle ages - there should

The monastery church of Oshki was, as correctly stated, built between 963 and 973 by the two
Bagrationi brothers Bagrat and David. They were Georgians, I believe, and all the inscriptions on the facades of the church are in the Georgian language. I can therefore not see why Oshki should have been an

Georgian script) is there for its effect, not for its content. Unless a translation is provided I do not see a valid reason for it to remain - Knowledge is an encyclopedia, not an archive for primary source material. In its current form this material does

I know that one
Armenian scholar (Tiran Marutian) claims that Armenian Chalcedonians used the Georgian language, and that this should be the reason why the inscriptions of Oshki are written in Georgian, but this is a non-sustainable view: Both the carved reliefs and the remaining wall paintings at

Is there any non-Armenian source addressing the concerns raised by Sofie? The cited source is clearly problematic. In the period of Bagrat and David the region was already under
Georgian influence. So the assertion that the church built by the Georgian princes in the 10th century belonged to the

Armenian in their homeland one can without doubt agree the influence and the presence of Georgians. But its silly to say Armenians left their homes after the Arab invasions and the Georgians took control of that region. take for example

However, the description of the church at Oshki is far from complete, and more photographs would be very useful to convey the exceptional beauty of this building which, sadly, is in a very bad state of preservation, and which, if nothing is done to secure it, might colapse very soon.

The inscription on the church talks about a "Grigol" without giving any further information. So it's not your supposed person even if it's maybe true, Gregory
Oshketsi as a name doesn't exists, we call him Grigol Oshkeli in georgian and Grigol of Oshki in english -:

I think the contenious part in that paragraph is the word "belongs". In the source I cited, Marutyan writes that Oshk was "the primary church used by
Chalcedonian Armenian community" - there is no mention of it actually belonging to them
