The present remains do not do justice to the original richness of the city. The most important is the so-called \"Armenian Mosaic\" which was discovered in 1894 on the Street of the Prophets near Damascus Gate. It depicts a vine with many branches and grape clusters, which springs from a vase. Populating the vine's branches are peacocks, ducks, storks, pigeons, an eagle, a partridge, and a parrot in a cage. The inscription reads: \"For the memory and salvation of all those Armenians whose name the Lord knows.\" Beneath a corner of the mosaic is a small, natural cave which contained human bones dating to the 5th or 6th centuries. The symbolism of the mosaic and the presence of the burial cave indicates that the room was used as a mortuary chapel. | \n", "When was the Armenian Mosaic re-discovered? | \n", "1894 | \n", "True | \n", "The Armenian Mosaic was re-discovered in 1920. | \n", "1894 | \n", "True | \n", "

Born in Santo Domingo of Portuguese and African descent, he arrived in Manhattan during the winter of 1613–1614, trapping for pelts and trading with the local population as a representative of the Dutch.

Long-term memory, on the other hand, is maintained by more stable and permanent changes in neural connections widely spread throughout the brain. The hippocampus is essential (for learning new information) to the consolidation of information from short-term to long-term memory, although it does not seem to store information itself. Without the hippocampus, new memories are unable to be stored into long-term memory, as learned from patient Henry Molaison after removal of both his hippocampi, and there will be a very short attention span. Furthermore, it may be involved in changing neural connections for a period of three months or more after the initial learning. | \n", "Which part of the brain does short-term memory seem to rely on? | \n", "frontal lobe (especially dorsolateral prefrontal cortex) and the parietal lobe | \n", "True | \n", "The cerebellum | \n", "frontal lobe (especially dorsolateral prefrontal cortex) and the parietal lobe | \n", "True | \n", "

The Senate, elated by its successes against Catiline, refused to ratify the arrangements that Pompey had made. Pompey, in effect, became powerless. Thus, when Julius Caesar returned from a governorship in Spain in 61 BC, he found it easy to make an arrangement with Pompey. Caesar and Pompey, along with Crassus, established a private agreement, now known as the First Triumvirate. Under the agreement, Pompey's arrangements would be ratified. Caesar would be elected consul in 59 BC, and would then serve as governor of Gaul for five years. Crassus was promised a future consulship. | \n", "What provided the Roman senate with exuberance? | \n", "successes against Catiline | \n", "True | \n", "The Roman Senate was filled with exuberance due to Pompey's defeat in Asia. | \n", "The Roman Senate was filled with exuberance due to Pompey's defeat in Asia. | \n", "False | \n", "

In the early 12th century, Armenian princes of the Zakarid noble family drove out the Seljuk Turks and established a semi-independent Armenian principality in Northern and Eastern Armenia, known as Zakarid Armenia, which lasted under the patronage of the Georgian Kingdom. The noble family of Orbelians shared control with the Zakarids in various parts of the country, especially in Syunik and Vayots Dzor, while the Armenian family of Hasan-Jalalians controlled provinces of Artsakh and Utik as the Kingdom of Artsakh. | \n", "What area did the Hasan-jalalians command? | \n", "Artsakh and Utik | \n", "True | \n", "The Hasan-Jalalians commanded the area of Syunik and Vayots Dzor. | \n", "Artsakh and Utik | \n", "True | \n", "
