Petroglyphs of Gamigaya

Gamigaya (or Gəmiqaya in Azerbaijani, which translates to "stone ship") is the name of one of the peaks of the Lesser Caucasus, known as Gapijik Peak (3906 meters). According to local legend, the ark of Prophet Noah landed on this peak after the Great Flood and eventually turned into stone. In the Ordubad region of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, east of the village of Nasirvaz, near the border of Azerbaijan and Armenia, Gamigaya rock art can be found, dating back to the 4th-1st millennia BC, covering the Bronze and Early Iron Ages.
