===Armenian=== [[Hayk]] was known as the founder of the Armenian state. Hayk was part of a race of giants who helped construct the [[Tower of Babel]]. Ancient historian [[Movses Khorenatsi]] wrote, "Hayk was handsome and personable, with curly hair, sparkling eyes and strong arms. Among the giants he was the bravest and most famous, opponent of all who raised their hand to become absolute ruler over the giants and heroes."<ref>{{cite book|last1=Khatchadourian|first1=Arpine|title=David of Sassoun: An Introduction to the Study of the Armenian Epic|pages=18}}</ref> [[Mount Nemrut]] is known to have received its name from an Armenian tradition in which [[Nimrod]] was killed by an arrow shot by Hayk during a massive battle between two rival armies of giants to the south-east of [[Lake Van]].<ref>{{cite book|last1=Collins|first1=Andrew|title=From the Ashes of Angels: The Forbidden Legacy of a Fallen Race|date=September 2001|publisher=Simon and Schuster |isbn=9781591439042|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=-VkoDwAAQBAJ&q=hayk&pg=PT159}}</ref>
