History

edit

The village was located in the Armenian-occupied territories surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh, coming under the control of ethnic Armenian forces in 1993 following the First Nagorno-Karabakh War. The village subsequently became part of the breakaway Republic of Artsakh as part of its Kashatagh Province, referred to as Artsvashen (Armenian: Արծվաշեն). It was recaptured by Azerbaijan on 23 October 2020 during the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war. [4]

Etymology

edit

The "Kürd" part of the town's name originates from the name of the chief of the Mahrizli tribe, Kurd Mafruzlu. The "Mahruzlu" part of the name originates from the name of the tribe.
