"Records" prove that Armenians are "Native" in the Armenian Highland:
Thutmose_III of Egypt (1500 BCE) mentions the people of "Ermenen" paying tribute when he held his court at Ninevah, and says that in their land "heaven rests upon its four pillars." (note: Thutmose III was the first Pharaoh to cross the Euphrates to reach the Armenian Highland)
(note: Turks refer to Armenians by this form Ermeni)
Old Persian name Armin means dweller of the Garden of Eden (Persians used this form Armina for Armenia)
