Located 6 km from Ashtarak on the right bank of the Kasagh is the village of Oshakan -- the tomb of St. Mesrop, the national hero and educator of Armenia, the creator of the national alphabet. Saint Mesrop Mashtots (Armenian: ÕÕ¥Õ½ÖÕ¸Õº ÕÕ¡Õ·Õ¿Õ¸Ö) (361 or 362, Hatsik, in Taron - February 17, 440, Echmiadzin) was an Armenian monk, theologian and linguist. He is best known for having invented the Armenian alphabet, which was a fundamental step in strengthening the Armenian Church, the government of the Armenian Kingdom, and ultimately the bond between Armenians in the Armenian Kingdom, the Byzantine Empire, and the Persian Empire.
