Tigranashen (Armenian: Տիգրանաշեն) is a village that is de jure an enclave of Azerbaijan, de facto under the control of Armenia, administrated as part of its Ararat Province. The main highway connecting northern Armenia with southern Armenia passes right by the village. The village is today mostly inhabited by Armenians, both locals and refugees from Azerbaijan.[2]

Geography

The village is located on the bank of the Akhuryan River near the YerevanJermuk highway, which is 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) away from the district centre. The area of the village itself is 950 hectares (2,300 acres).[3]

History

The village was captured by Armenian forces on 19 January 1990, during the First Nagorno-Karabakh War.[4][5][6][7]

Since May 1992, following the First Nagorno-Karabakh War, Karki has been controlled by Armenia, which administers the 19 km2 (7.3 sq mi) territory as part of its Ararat Province.[8]

After the war, many of the former inhabitants of Karki resettled in a new village, Yeni Kərki (New Karki), created within the Kangarli District of Azerbaijan.

Demographics

According to the 1910 publication of the Caucasian Calendar, Karki (Кярки, Kyarki) had a predominantly Tatar (later known as Azerbaijani) population of 244 in 1908.[9] This number increased slightly to 245 in 1911,[10] before declining to 242 in 1914.[11]

The village had a present population of 151, and a permanent population of 154 in 2011.[1]
