As far as I am able to find out, the area was Byzantine from 1021 (when the Armenian kingdom of Vaspurakan was incorporated in the Byzantine Empire) to 1087 (the battle of Manzikert), possibly also for a few years up to the Arab invasion in 640. For most of historic time it has been part of different Armenian states, and it has actually been far longer under Mongolian rule than under Byzantine. I would suggest that the Greek name is undue for the lede per 254: 233: 363: 342: 544: 680: 600: 579: 459: 438: 264: 2506: 1788: 191: 2462:

Lake Van is a notable lake because it's so deep and is very large for a salt lake. It would be good to be able to list some accurate measurements for the lake, such as depth, area, volume height above sea level, etc. There are quite a number of differing figures for these, so I thought compiling the

Lake Van saw a rapid rise in the level of its waters in the 1990s. I don't have a source to give specific data but it was a very substantial increase (well over 3 meters, accompanied by large areas of agricultural land being flooded). For example, the jetty of the ferry port at Tatvan was operating

Why is the Armenian name of the town included? These have been Turkish and Kurdish lands for a thousand years. Articles on Greek islands that were Turkish territory a hundred years ago are not allowing Turkish names to be included! Double standards seem to be at play. Someone explain it logically

I have noticed a contradiction between this article and the article on Kurdistan. This article describes Lake Van as a saline body of water; the Kurdistan article describes Lake Van as a non-saline body of water. Would those of you working on these two articles mind sorting this out? I am posting

1. As Lake Van is in Turkey, the Turkish name of the lake in Turkish should be displayed before any other language. 2. Can anybody explain the relevance of Ottoman-Armenian population, Armenian genocide, or Treaty of Sevres, which are lisred in the "See Also Section", with Lake Van?
