Abstract

The article examines the interrelation between death, memory and the material in Armenian culture. The image of a dead person can revive after his death turning into a material memory. This memory is usually preserved with the help of cross-stones, gravestones and statues that come to replace a living person. The article makes reference to the attitude of the society to the photos. Samples of written speech on gravestones have also undergone research. The aim of our work is to create a bond between the perished one and the society through language.
