Mount Ararat is widely accepted to be the final resting place of Noah’s Ark, according to various interpretations of the Book of Genesis. Although Mount Ararat currently resides within the borders of Turkey, it was historically part of both Turkey and Armenia. Mount Ararat is widely considered to be Armenia's national symbol and holds a significant amount of cultural significance to the nation.

The Armenian coat of arms depicts an eagle and a lion supporting a shield with 4 quadrants with Mount Ararat at the center. Each quadrant is representative of the old dynasties of Armenia.
