History

edit

The village was populated by Azerbaijanis. In March-April 1989, ethnic Azeri population was deported because of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. Most of the population went to Nakhichevan. Armenian refugees who were deported from different settlements of Nakhichevan and Azerbaijan settled in the village.[1]
