"At its zenith, from 95 to 66 BC, Greater Armenia extended its rule over parts of the Caucasus and the area that is now eastern and central Turkey, northwestern Iran, Palestine, Syria and Lebanon, forming the second Armenian empire."
Then the Romans turned up.
This was a brief period in the dynamic history of the region. Unfortunately there is quite a lot of misinformation on Armenian websites when you start looking around, and far too many maps declaring Armenia to be that area that only existed for 30 years over 2000 years ago.
P.S. Between the Macedonians and the Romans in this video.

Katie, I recommend you actually read what you're posting - 3rd sentence, 1st paragraph - "on a windswept hilltop 35 miles north of Turkey’s border with Syria".
