Looks at the date of it's collapse, and the infighting, and it's strategic location to the Hittite (flanking both directions north along the black sea and southwest), as well as dead south.

 

I've always considered from Russia (which this would still obviously allow, as Jordanes thought with the Gothic origins of the Amazonians, which is Pontus, but that's doubtful, more likely just some steepe tribe), or subject Hittites rising up with Mycenae and Phoenician help (Illiad like raids now and then, till they themselves get raided). Ayr Darya, Karakorum before it got really bad. Just never considered Armenia.
