History background of Armenian units?

[Sarkiss]

The Urartian kingdom predates the EB timeframe by well over three centuries, and so any equipment from that time period is irrelevant to reconstructions during the EB timeframe.

it is, nevertheless, likely to influence later Armenians.
with arrival of new tribes circa VI BC Urartians did not just perish, but most, if not all, remained within their original inhabit and contributed over the centuries to fusion of new and old tradition into one.

according to Gabriel Soultanian's "The Pre-History of the Armenians" the Urartian enclave encircled on all sides by proto-Armenians had their language fading away in line with their identity.

the eclipse of Urartian language was the reason for Urartu, as a separate ethnic unit, to die a natural death; but even that death could not negate the legacy with which Urartu had endowed the hybrid nation of the Armenians, who are while physiognomically of Caucasian type, yet speak an Indo-European dialect.
