Kharnaypntur Tumar - The First Printed Armenian Calendar

Kharnaypntur tumar is considered to be the first edition of Apkar Tebir. During his wanderings from Rome to Venice, as he didn’t succeed to find the printed letters of the first Armenian printer, he set about making new fonts imitating Armenian manuscript deposits of that period. The first edition shows how carefully he prepared to continue the interrupted work of Hakob Meghapart. The calendar was published in Venice in 1565, fifty-two years after the cessation of Hakob Meghapart’s publication.
