MATENADARAN MANUSCRIPT MUSEUM YEREVAN ARMENIA
Matenadaran ancient manuscripts collection
The Matenadaran is a repository of ancient manuscripts and a research institute in Armenia. It is the world's largest repository of Armenian manuscripts.
It was established in 1959 on the basis of the nationalized collection of the Armenian Church, formerly held at Etchmiadzin. Its collection has gradually risen since its establishment, mostly from individual donations.
The Matenadaran contains a total of some 23 thousand manuscripts and scrolls.
The manuscripts cover a wide array of subjects: religious and theological works (Gospels, Bibles, lectionaries, psalters, hymnals, homilies, and liturgical books), texts on history, mathematics, geography, astronomy, cosmology, philosophy, jurisprudence, medicine, alchemy, astrology, music, grammar, rhetoric, philology, pedagogy, collections of poetry, literary texts, and translations from Greek and Syriac.

The Matenadaran - officially the Mesrop Mashtots Institute of Ancient Manuscripts - is a museum, repository of manuscripts, and a research institute. Currently, the Matenadaran contains a total of some 23,000 manuscripts and scrolls—including fragments. The manuscripts cover a wide array of subjects: religious and theological works, texts on history, mathematics, geography, astronomy, cosmology, philosophy, jurisprudence, medicine, alchemy, astrology, music, grammar, rhetoric, philology, pedagogy, collections of poetry, literary texts, and translations from Greek and Syriac. Thousands of Armenian manuscripts were destroyed during the genocide in the Ottoman Empire. The writings of classical and medieval historians Movses Khorenatsi, Yeghishe and Koryun are preserved here, as are the legal, philosophical and theological writings of other notable Armenian figures. The preserved writings of Grigor Narekatsi and Nerses Shnorhali at the Matenadaran form the cornerstone of medieval Armenian literature. (From Wikipedia)

미테나는 책이고 다란은 보관소를 의미하니 일종의 도서관이다. 하지만 예레반 사람들은 도서관이라기보다는 고문서 보관소라고 칭한다. 마테나다란에는 아르메니아, 그루지야, 페르시아와 그리스의 고문서 사본이 약14000점 가량 보관되어 있다. 가장 오래된 책은 5세기의 것이라고 하는데 귀중한 소장품이다. 사본에 그려진 세밀화는 아르메니아의 오랜 역사를 대변해주고 있다.
