The Pleiades cluster is prominent in many cultures. Curiously, many cultures call it the Seven Sisters while acknowledging that most people only see six stars. They then have stories to explain why only six are visible. Similar stories about the Pleiades are found around the world and are shared by cultures (e.g., Australian Aboriginal and Classical Greek) that have had no cultural contact, even indirect contact, for tens of thousands of years. These curious details suggest the stories may date back to the time when early humans left Africa. This paper is part of a larger study to catalogue ancient references to the Pleiades, to help trace the history and evolution of the ancient myths and artefacts that refer to the Pleiades. This paper has a particular focus on material from Armenia and its surrounding region.

Communications of the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory (ComBAO) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, which publishes research in observational and theoretical astronomy/astrophysics and presents recent advances in these fields. It is being published by the NAS RA V. Ambartsumian Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory (BAO) in English in electronic form. The journal publishes original papers, review papers, brief reports, book reviews, special communications, observational and theoretical results in various fields of astronomy and related sciences, and some editorial notes, including anniversaries and obituaries. Under the heading “Legacy”, the renewed magazine will republish some old articles of high value in English. The heading “Guest articles” will bring to the attention of readers the articles of researchers who are not employees of BAO. ComBAO was founded in 1946 and regularly published in 1946-1990. However, the publication was interrupted because of the economic situation after the disintegration of the Soviet Union in 1991.
