This article only pretends to express a scientific hypothesis, to be part of the category about ancient Indo-European peoples and tribes, and to be a support to the main articles about the Armenians.

The Armenian ethnogenesis (Origin of the Armenians), in itself an anthropological and linguistic scientific field, can be a controversial issue, mainly because of its political overtones and conflicting political agendas (having a connection to politics or religion that is not directly expressed), many times caused by the poor relations and even hostility between the Turkish and Azeri States toward the Armenian State and vice-versa, in part but not only, as a result of the territorial, land and border conflicts and the complex, violent and tumultuous history between these states and peoples (as was the Armenian Genocide).

Regardless of their ethnogenesis, Armenians are one of the oldest ethnic groups that live until modern times, they live or lived in the Armenian Highlands and eastern Asia Minor or Anatolia, in the historical regions of Armenia, and today's Armenia for about or more than three millennia (3000 years), by this standard they are clearly a native people of their land. Like many other, or even most, ethnic groups, Armenian ethnogenensis and origin was the result of a complex process and blend between older and later peoples that formed a new ethnic identity.Bird Vision (talk)
