Semiramis - Semiramis in Armenian legend
One of the most popular legends in Armenian tradition involves Semiramis and an Armenian king, Ara the Beautiful. In the 20th century the poet Nairi Zarian retold the story of Ara the Beautiful and Shamiram which is considered a masterpiece of Armenian literary drama.
According to the legend Semiramis had heard about the fame of the handsome Armenian king Ara and lusted after his image. She asked Ara to marry her but Ara refused, upon hearing this she gathered the armies of Assyria and marched against Armenia. The battle was supposed to have taken place in the Ararat valley during which Ara was slain. In order to avoid continuous warfare with the Armenians, Semiramis prayed to the Gods for reviving Ara from the dead. Dog-like creatures called Aralez (lickers of Ara) descended from the skies and licked Ara's wounds after which he came back to life.
