Sea and water symbolize the Armenian identity, and its spiritual connection to nature and eternity. Just look at the story of Noah, or in the water-born in Daredevils of Sassoun. The “Ayas” Marine Research Club, strongly emphasizing the symbolic role of the sea power of Cilicia in the establishment of a new, spiritual system of civilization, plans to build a Maritime Museum-Laboratory in Armenia, the capital city of Yerevan, to illuminate and teach the achievements and spiritual and moral advice of our ancestors, to value the vision of Armenia in a new age, for visitors to give a pilgrimage mood. “Cilicia” Maritime Museum-Laboratory aims to:
● To become a leading scientific and educational center in Armenia, where Cilician civilizational, spiritual and cultural lessons will be studied.
● To be an important patriotic contribution to the implementation and the symbol of the return to an Armenian identity, nobility and signifying the “Return of Kings” as the supremacy of justice, morality, and as a dignified, human-centered management system.
