Oghbin was a village in the Sharur-Daralayaz uezd of the former Iravan governorate, later in the former Pashali (Azizbeyov, Vayk) district, and present-day Vayots Dzor province. It was located near the village of Almali.
The village was inhabited by 37 Azerbaijanis in 1831, 104 Azerbaijanis and 57 Armenians in 1873, 169 Azerbaijanis and 62 Armenians in 1886, 245 Azerbaijanis and 104 Armenians in 1897, and 531 Azerbaijanis and Armenians together in 1914. The Armenians were removed and settled in the village in the 1870s. The Azerbaijanis were attacked, massacred or expelled from the village by Armenian armed units in 1918. After the establishment of Soviet power in present-day Armenia, the Azerbaijanis who survived managed to return to the village in 1924–1925. Along with the Armenians, the village was inhabited by 37 Azerbaijanis in 1926 and 53 Azerbaijanis in 1931. In accordance with the decision of the USSR Council of Ministers “On the resettlement of collective farmers and other Azerbaijani population from the Armenian SSR to the Kur-Araz lowlands of the Azerbaijan SSR” dated 23 December 1947, the Azerbaijani population of the village was forcibly deported to Azerbaijan and the village was abolished. At present, it lies in ruins.
The toponym was coined by combining the word “ogh/ok” meaning “a tribal confederation, a family union” in Turkic and the ethnonym “Min/Bin” which has been mentioned as a branch of the Turkic Gypchag tribes.
