On the road of Nakhchivan...

Hello everybody, I now on the road of Nakhchivan for one mouth of excavation. You say where are you going?

So Wikipedia write:

"The Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic (Azerbaijani: Naxçıvan Muxtar Respublikası) is a landlocked exclave of Azerbaijan. The region covers 5,500[1] km² and borders Armenia (221 km) to the east and north, Iran (179 km) to the south and west, and Turkey (15 km) to the northwest."

It's a good but technical definition. For me it's small, quiet, aoutside of normal world like stop in past.

 So hope to explain you my trip, my work and a real archeology life...
