Archaeologists developed a reconstruction image of what
the ancient church would have looked like.

Archaeologists recently uncovered what they believe to be one
of the
oldest Christian churches in the world.

The University of Münster announced the discovery of the fourth
-century church in a press release on Oct. 11.

The school, located in Germany, teamed up with archaeologists
from the National Academy of Sciences of Armenia to find the
ancient ruins.

The remains of the ancient Christian building were found at the
Artaxata site in the Ararat Plain. Excavators have been digging
there since 2018, but didn’t find the remains until recently.

WHEN TELEVISION HAD STANDARDS

The Code of Practices for Television Broadcasters, also known
as the Television Code, was a set of ethical standards adopted
by the
National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) of the United
States for television programming from 1952 to 1983.

The code was created to self-regulate the industry in hopes of
avoiding a proposed government Advisory Board and satisfying
parental concerns over violence and other matters.  

Prior to the Television Code, the 1935 NAB Code of Ethics for
radio was applied to television but fewer than half of television
stations subscribed to it; when the Television Code was first
issued, two-thirds of stations became subscribers.
