    YEREVAN. - The tomb of Queen Katramide and two tombstones of priests
    were located at the Cathedral of Ani.

    `Following archaeological excavations, obvious changes were made at
    the site. As a result, the tombstones were overturned and the
    inscriptions were concealed. This was a deliberate move, even the
    bones were thrown out. Are monuments preserved in this way?' architect
    Ashot Hakobyan stated in an interview with Hayots Ashkharh newspaper.
