Hi, on Sundial Atlas there is AM1 (www.sundialatlas.eu/atlas.php?so=AM1), the sundial of the Tanahati Monastery of Gladzor, and AM2 of the Zvartnots Cathedral.

The first one (Zvartnoz) is the replica of the original one inside the museum. The original is from the 7th cent. The second one (Yerevan) is a modern Armenian-style medieval sundial. The third one (Gegard monastery) should be from the 12th-13th centuries, but actually looks almost new. Georgia has still many Armenian churches and also Georgian ones with Armenian influence, but I do not know if they have sundials on them. This is a virgin field.

Hello Sasch and all, Perhaps you a right. These Armenian dials seem to be simple mass dials with a horizontal gnomon and equal hour angles, easy to discount as trivial. One looks like an attempt at polar dial. I am reluctant to ignore them without knowing more about their provenance, Perhaps they are meaningless reproductions without regard for orientation. I don't know enough about the specifics. Is there a local expert to comment on their merit?

As nice as these dials are, they appear to be reproductions which are installed without regard to directional orientation. Unfortunately this is not unusual.
