==History== The settlement, located in the Goght'n district of historical Armenia, had been one of the cultural centers of Nakhchivan. In the village was an Armenian church called Surp Grigor, also known as the Mesrop Mashtots monastery church, part of a monastery believed to date back to the 5th century. According to Koriun, Mashtots had conceived the idea of creating an alphabet for the Armenian language while residing at this monastery.
