Summary/Abstract: The text below is a small contribution to the corpus of the Aramaic inscriptions discovered in Armenia. The inscription was engraved on a so-called boundary stone discovered near the shores of Lake Sevan. The discovery belongs to the group of similar inscriptions recorded in this region and doubtlessly is a reflection of the distribution and spatial organization of arable land and defining of the borders between the land owners.
