Etymology[edit]
From Ancient Greek Θοργομά (Thorgoma), from Hebrew תֹּגַרְמָה (Thogarmā). The correct nominative is Թորգոմա; the spelling Թորգոմ was mistakenly back-formed from the genitive Թորգոմայ. The Biblical “House of Togarmah” probably referred to the Proto-Armenian kingdom centered around Melitene. By identifying Togarmah with the ancestor of Armenians Moses of Chorene was either following biblical commentators or he knew a local tradition.
