Remains of two female warriors discovered in ArmeniaDecember 20, 2021 - 14:52 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - The bone remains of two female warriors have been unearthed in Jrapi, Shirak province, Armenia, and the study of the burial ground has revealed a multiple array of traumatic lesions, which shed light on their daily activities, occupation, and warfare practice. Published in the International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, the peer-reviewed paper was authored by Anahit Y. Khudaverdyan, Azat A. Yengibaryan, Hamazasp H. Khachatryan and Arshak A. Hovhanesyan. "Both women had compressive cranial lesions with the signs of healing. A bronze arrowhead once embedded in the soft tissues of the intercostal space was discovered as well as a canal in the lower epiphysis of the tibia probably left by the broken point of a bronze arrowhead. The women were likely horse riders and archers," the paper's abstract reads. The remains unearthed in the burial belonged to two females who seemed to live as professional warriors and were buried as individuals of rank. This tomb is the third burial discovered in Armenia that provides evidence on female warriors.
