The Diary of a Cross-Stealer (Խաչագողի հիշատակարանը / Khachagoghi Hishatakarane) is an 1890 novel by the Armenian novelist Raffi.[1] It was translated into Russian under the title Dnevnik krestokrada.

The Diary of the Cross-Stealer was made into an Armenian film in 2010 (ru), directed by Hrach Keshishyan to a script by Artak Arzumanyan and starring Babken Chnobanyan as the titular con-man and with the theme song sung by Hayko.
