Qımır (also, Kymyr) is a village in the Zaqatala Rayon of Azerbaijan. The village forms part of the municipality of Çobankol.
==Origins== Qımır is one of the villages in the Caucasus where the Cimmerians (Gmry) are believed to have settled during the I millennium BC. Cimmerians were nomads who were successful in attacking Urartu and conquering Lydia in Anatolia. According to Herodotus, Cimmerians (Qımıroi) have fled through Caucasus to Anatolia. Possible that a small group of nomadic Cimmerians, has settled in the Caucasus and the Village name of Qımır is an ethnotoponym.
