Dragon Stone Burial from Lchashen
The G25 coordinates for the Dragon Stone burial from Lchashen are now available (see the comments). The data come from Bobokhyan et al. 2024.
This unique kurgan burial contained the remains of two newborn children and a woman, who is presumed to have been their mother. A dragon stone (vishapakar) was placed above the tomb.
The autosomal DNA of the individuals is similar to that of other populations living in the territory of the modern Armenia during the same period.
The burial is dated to approximately 1550 BCE, corresponding to the Middle Bronze Age.
