Khachkar
Хачкар · Խաչքար
The Abas Bek khachkar, a carved cross-stone marking a grave, stands inside the Melik-Shahnazaryan family burial vault in the center of Mets Masrik village. It is listed on Armenia's state register of immovable history and culture monuments, under code 5.65/5.5.
Unlike khachkars set along roads or near churches for public view, this one belongs to a single family's tomb — a private marker with official heritage status attached.
The khachkar is in Gegharkunik region, near Vardenis, in Mets Masrik village — roughly 106 km east of Yerevan, straight-line.
