History
editIts history dates back to 1862 when it was founded in its current location. Prior to this, the village was known as Yegibokovsky and was situated between the Urup and Kyafar rivers.
In 1929, the village of Yegibokovsky was officially renamed Abazakt by a decree of the Presidium of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee. The name is derived from the ethnonym "abaza" and the word "kyt" meaning village.
In 1957, the village was transferred to the jurisdiction of the Psauche-Dakhsky village council.
