armenian word for space is տիեզերք [tiezerk’], which literally means ‘big edge’: ‘ti’ - big, and ‘ezerk’’ - edge.
other dictionary states that first time the usage of the word was noticed in 6th century manuscript.
i wonder how people did know (or guess?) so much time ago, that the space is not infinite.

occhiolism
n. the awareness of the smallness of your perspective, by which you couldn’t possibly draw any meaningful conclusions at all, about the world or the past or the complexities of culture, because although your life is an epic and unrepeatable anecdote, it still only has a sample size of one, and may end up being the control for a much wilder experiment happening in the next room.
