Hello.

The exhibits presented in the museum tell about the history of the monastery, the stages of its formation and development, starting from the period when Christianity was appeared in this region in the Middle Ages.

Please advice how is it possible to change appeared here?
Originated? Or since the first Christiam times?

Say: ... when Christianity first appeared in the region ...

Is this your text, Aksinia? If not, can you tell us what you're trying to do?

Sorry. I was just referring to "appeared." Of course "was" is wrong. I don't like "appeared" as much as "arrived" because it makes it sound like Christianity just materialized out of thin air. It didn't. It came from somewhere. It arrived.

I'll go delete that post now.
