Abstract
The report deals with the first results of the Armenian-German Artaxata Project (AGAP) which started in 2018. The project focuses on the Lower City of Artashat/Artaxata, the capital of Artaxiad and Arsacid Armenia. So far, the area was investigated by over 30 hectares of magnetic prospection, large-scale excavations in over 400 sqm and selective deep drilling. Several structures of possibly domestic and public functions – in parts with an elaborate character – were uncovered. The project will continue in the years to come with further excavation campaigns.
